Apps

These reward apps on the app stores are seemingly becoming more popular.

Today I will be bringing you a review of one that has been doing well recently named PlaySpot UK.

PlaySpot is an app that pays you to play games on your phone, and for your time, you can get cash or gift cards.

It has been popping within the PlayStore for a while now, and with it being number 1 and also racking over five million in total downloads, I thought I’d check it out.

However, there seems to be a lot of people asking whether or not they pay.

So today, I will be telling you whether or not PlaySpot is legit and whether they are worth the time for you along with it.

Welcome to my Cashzine App review.

There is now an abundance of new ways to earn out there, and this one struck my curiosity.

This is because it claims to pay you to read the news. Now being someone who has picked up newspapers from the local shops but having to pay for them, this opportunity seems to pay you.

Here’s the thing though, when something comes your way that sounds too good to be true its best to do your research.

Just like you are doing right now.

Which is good.

So I have gone and downloaded the app, had a feel of it so that I can now bring you a review telling you what you need to know.

After having some time to play it, I am now ready to bring you a Lucky Pusher review.

An app that claims you can cash in big.

However, is that even real, and are any of its users earning money.

My expectations coming into checking out the app hit rock bottom, though.

That was after finding out that they are by the same company that is also managing fellow apps Plinko Master and Lucky Plinko.

Let’s get right into the review and see if Lucky Pusher can prove you wrong and me.

Welcome to my 2048 Cards review.

A few weeks ago, I decided to review a game very similar to this one. It was an okayish game; however, when it came to paying out, there was no surprise to see they didn’t.

Ever since then, I have noticed some developers have made their own adaptations of the game 2048 that was released back in 2016, and today I will be checking out another one of them called 2048 Cards.

I will tell you in advance there are some pretty big similarities between this game and others already released; however, does this one actually give out, or will they leave you regretting your choice to install it.

If you ever wondered if it’s possible to make money by joining numbers in a game, well, this Pop Connect review might be of interest to you.

This new game that has been released, which is based around connecting numbers together, says you can make money through their game.

The simple act of just joining a few numbers together sounds easy, and that is the case, but can you gain from it, and is this app real or legit.

Find out by the end of this post as I will be going through all the aspects of Pops Connect that you need to know about.

To clear up the debate in this Coin Pop app review I will tell you whether they payout.

The last year saw the rise of many apps that pay you to either play games or download them on your phone.

Coin Pop is an app that apparently pays you to install a game on your phone and play it.

It’s as simple as that, and for many, it does seem to easy.

I have gone ahead and installed it because with these apps it is hit and miss, some have paid me while others will waste your time.

Make sure to read on to find out my verdict.

Most of us give away our precious data without even realising.

This results in many companies getting to know much more about you then they should.

I think we have all been there, for instance, when you download an app they require you to agree to permit various functions. That is an example of sending data for free.

Well, recently, I have heard more people talk about an app called UBDI.

They are a company that is connected to market research companies to help supply them with the data they need.

In return for giving them insights, they claim to pay you in cash.

With apps that pay you for data, you have to be careful as you want to know that they are not a scam and going to take more from you then you’re getting from them.

In this UBDI review we will be seeing if they are a legitimate and safe app to use.

UBDI App Review Summary

• Owner: Dana Budzyn 
• What Are They?: Data App
• Cost: Free
• Verdict: Legit
• Recommended: Yes

What Is UBDI About?

UBDI (Universal Basic Data Income) is an app that consists of a community where users can get paid for exchanging there insights and data for cash.

The whole initiative of the company is helping users have more control of the data they give away.

That is because any data they send will be done with anonymity.

While at the same time helping companies who need it to improve there services and products from it.

Its practically market research and with so many brands out there looking to find out behaviour patterns of there consumers means there is a market out there.

So far over 8500 people who have signed up to the app, it’s still in the new stages having been released back in September 2019.

Apps that pay you for data isn’t uncommon, Honeygain is an excellent example of another one that pays you for just that.

Whos Behind It All?

The owner is Dana Budzyn, who is also the founder and CEO of the company. You also have two other founders in Shane Green and Mark Kilaghbian.

While they are primarily based in Washington, DC, they are also set up in Bosnia And Herzegovina.

The app was cleared in September to go ahead due to $825,000 in funding.

Is It Free To Sign Up?

In the introduction video on the website, it says that signing up will take 10 minutes to do, of which they are right.

However, and while they do explain each step, it does feel like a long-winded sign-up process.

When you feel like you are finished, there is something else you need to do.

But each step is essential to making sure the app can function.

Let’s go over what it entails, so you understand what you will have to do.

1. Downloading UBDI

The first task is to download the main app. That takes a few seconds to do.

Once you have opened it, you will be taken briefly through how the app works.

From here you will be shown a login page. Being a new user, you will need to choose the sign-up button.

There are two details you will need to create for this account, a username and password.

2. Verifying Your Phone Number

The next step is to put in your phone number so you can verify it.

You will be sent a six-digit code instantly that you will need to enter into the box.

They do say that this will only be used to verify your account and for the 2-factor authentication.

3. Download Digi.me

For the app to work, you will need to install an app named Digi.me.The function of this is to encrypt all the data you send to them, to make sure that it’s safe.

That means you will have to head on over to this other app, again make an account and link the two apps.

You won’t need to use Digi.me after signing up, they will be running in the background performing the above function.

3. Completing PrivateMatch Tags

At first, I wasn’t sure what this was but what they are is profilers, similar to what you get on other survey sites.

As a feature of this app, you will receive surveys from time to time, so this is to get to know you more.

Now PrivateMatch Tags will require you to answer roughly 40 questions about your demographic.

While it seems long, it is easy to get through.

Now so that you know PrivateMatch is a technology they use to keep all the responses anonymous.That means when someone completes a survey, there partners won’t be able to identify individuals.

How Do You Make Money?

If you have completed all the above-listed steps, you should start receiving surveys.

These surveys are how you will earn points that you can then withdraw later on.

I have had the app downloaded for a few days, but it wasn’t until the second day that I received the survey.

I didn’t receive a notification or email as you may expect with other survey panels. Instead, I logged in and checked to find one in my dashboard.

Looking at the screenshot, you can see it’s about politics and pays out $1.

What I like also is that once you have opened up the survey, you are then given further details.

That includes the number of questions the survey consists of and the number of spots left.

I had gone through surveys that had taken me at least 10 minutes to complete, so when this one took me a minute, I was surprised.

Anyway once completed you will see under studies your updated total of completions.

You will also see a new balance, in my case I had $1 and 10 UBDI given to me.

Looking at existing users feedback, it seems you can expect to have 1 or 2 surveys come in each week.

Some will be for all users while others for specific demographics.

How Do They Payout?

At the moment they are only supporting US residents, although anyone can sign up unless you are from the US there won’t be a way for you to cash out.

They payout through bank transfer.

What I Am A Fan Off

1. More In Control Of Your Data

Ever since they came on to the market, UBDI has spoken a lot about there aims to make data more important.

Like I have mentioned a good number regularly give away data for free, a lot of which is valuable.

So with an app like UBDI, you know where it’s going to, getting paid for it and staying anonymous at the end of it.

2. Active Customer Service

It’s refreshing to see a company that is keeping up to date with its user’s issues and feedback.

I see so many sites, services, programs you name it almost ignore their user’s feedback.

UBDI are active on all social media’s and are also replying to any complaints on Google Play.

That shows that they are trying to improve and are there if you do encounter issues.

3. Good Pay For Time

Above you can see I tried out a survey for $1, it only took me a minute to do which is good value.

A lot of people think you can’t make money with surveys, and while in general, the earning potential is low on survey sites you find it okay with this app.

That is thanks to them paying you well considering the time your sacrificing. The developers are also looking into bringing higher-paying surveys, around the $3 -$10 mark.

What I Am Not A Fan Off

1. Complicated At Times

At times it is easy to become overwhelmed, especially when getting the app up and running.

Luckily I do understand apps and devices in general well, but I know some may get confused with the account set up.

You are required to download not only a few apps but also make more than one account.

I would advise that you pay attention to each instruction and read each page, so you are following along with it all.

2. Exclusive To US

The other problem I came across this is that if you aren’t American, you won’t be able to use them.

You can sign up and complete surveys however, you won’t be able to cash out whatever you make.

As they expand, it will be interesting to see if they accommodate for more.

If that is the case, I will update this post.

How Much Can You Make With Them?

Currently, UBDI is trying to fix the issue of more surveys being given out as some members are facing inconsistency.

With that said and to give you a ball figure of how much you could potentially make, I have seen people earning $10-$30 a month.

Which isn’t too bad, but for a survey site that’s good.

Some survey sites make it hard even to make that, but the fact that there is no disqualification rate does contribute here. 

That means you can complete a survey without being booted out.

Is The UBDI App Worth Trying Out?

UBDI is offering an opportunity that a lot of people are making money and ultimately are pleased with.

I had a good feeling going into this UBDI review as I have been seeing good things said about them on forums and social media.

As a result, they have risen a lot since launch.

The goal is to make money, and with people seeing there withdrawn earnings, it seems you can’t go wrong.

This app is new, so not many people are aware of them yet, but you will also find many apps out there you can make money with. It’s all about having a look.

I would recommend UBDI so feel free to go download it and see how you get on with it.

For you to find this app, I’m guessing you are on the hunt for quick and easy opportunities to make money.

So also take a look at these reward sites and apps while you’re at it to get you on the right track in 2020.

Speak to you soon,

Welcome to my Happy Fishing App Review. An opportunity that I recently stumbled across.

They are an app that claims to pay you well just to catch fish.

However is it any good and is there any money to be made?

How I came across them was from watching one of there ads.

It looked initially like an effortless way to make money.

With it showing you how it easy it is to get lots of dollars picking up fish.How realistic is this and is this an opportunity that will make you money.

I am going to be going through it all in the next couple of minutes.

Happy Fishing App Review Summary

• Owner: Fishing King Studio
• What Are They?: Making Money App
• Cost: Free
• Verdict: Legit
• Recommended: No

What Is Happy Fishing About?

To put it bluntly Happy Fishing is an app that pays users to get fish out of the ocean.

Similar to the real thing, but inside a game however with this one you can find money and win it.

​

That is what they are saying and claiming to offer.

Now this whole idea of free money is trend that is growing right now, just take a look at ​Lucky Go, PlaySpot UK and Lucky Money.

​

Three apps that all offer so called opportunities to get free bucks.

​

They were developed by Fishing King Studio, which is a company based in North America.

​

The app already managed to achieve over one million in installs since March 2019.

​

That is on Google Play, but apparently, you can also get it on IOS.

​

What was also interesting is to see they have a rating of 4.5 out of 5, with just under 100 thousand reviews.

​

That would typically tell you an app is good, but as you will see, high ratings don’t precisely mean something is legit.

How Does The Game Work?

Once you have downloaded the app which doesn’t take long to do, you can start playing and catching fish.

Here’s a screenshot of what you will see on launch. You will have the orange ‘Go Fish’ button that starts the game.

You will also notice there are 3 buttons at the top.

The two on the left you will be upgrading, the length of your fishing rope and the amount of fish you can hook up.

Okay so once you have started the rope will go into the water, and your job is to pick up fish as the fisherman brings it in.

Now there isn’t a massive rush to get as much fish as possible it’s more about getting the larger ones as they carry the most points. 

Once you have collected the maximum amount of fish you can, you will be credited with money (not actual money though).

That covers how the game works, but most of you are wondering how do you make money.

Well, I will get onto that now.

Stopped Paying Out?

With the app being out for the majority of the year, it seems as though I haven’t got there in time.

Right now, there isn’t a way for you to earn cash as a feature has been removed.

Check this out, these two screenshots are before and after. As you can in the after photo, the in-game currency total has been taken out the game.

Before The Update

After The Update

While you can still get treasure chests, they no longer contain any reward. It’s just an item that can be picked up in the sea.

I’m not sure if this is temporary or whether the app developers are doing maintenance however I will update this Happy Fishing review if I hear any latest.

From learning about the app, I can talk about how users were previously making money.

As you can tell the treasure chests used to hold money, and if collected, you would get a random amount of money.

Often between $0.02 and $0.20, with it going down the more you collected it.

These chests wouldn’t always appear, and from seeing other videos, It looks like it shows up at random.

Happy Fishing had set the cash out to $10, meaning you needed to reach that to get paid via PayPal.

Check This Out: 5 Out Of The Box Ways To Make Money Online

Aspects You Need To Be Aware Off

From doing my research, I have been able to learn the dark truths of the app.

At first, it comes across as an exciting app however, it isn’t as genuine as you would think.

1. Pointless Game

Unless you are playing the game for fun, it is pointless as you are repetitively collecting fish and not working towards a goal.

It becomes an endless annoying loop.

Like I was talking about, they have removed the feature to earn, meaning you will enduring countless ads for nothing.

Now I know some of you will genuinely enjoy the game, and that’s cool.

But if you are looking to make money, you will no longer find anything of interest here.

2. Too Many Users Not Getting Paid

Earlier I spoke about my experience and how they have removed the aspect to make money.

But before they did this, there were already many people voicing their issues over the apps payout system.

The main issue isn’t people not getting paid but more not being able to reach the minimum threshold, which in the ad looked so easy to do.

The more that users play the game, the less they are getting paid.Look at this, these are five reviews that are recent for the app.

Here are another three reviews. Again unhappy people believing the app is rigged.

At first, they are getting enticed with some money, but gradually over time how much the treasure is rewarding is getting lower.

That reminds me of an app called Knife Bounty, which I reviewed recently.

The structure is the same where the more you played and managed to hit the money, the less you get.

3. Misleading Advertising

How Happy Fishing is advertising and also how they got my attention is through there misleading videos.

They were making it seem as if for every fish you catch, you will be getting dollars. However, that is not how the game works.

Having played it, it’s almost like a different game to one I initially saw. I mean it does make sense.

4. Ads Are Everywhere

I’ve tried reward apps of all types. Ones where you get paid to download games, complete surveys, even scratchcards. 

However, never have I seen so many ads.

So much that it does become a problem and means, you are always stopping and starting.

For each action, you do on the app, whether that is collecting fish or even redeeming the cash, you will have to watch a 30-second ad.

Now having a few ads is okay, not ideal, but you have to understand that most apps these days rely on ads to bring in revenue. 

However, I should be able to play the game for more than a minute without being forced to watch an advertisement to continue.

Conclusion

I have tried out this app for a few days now, and what I have learnt is that Happy Fishing is a scam. That is for sure!

Therefore I don’t advise you to install them. I don’t recommend any apps that waste time so I won’t be with this one.

In this Happy Fishing app review, we have covered a lot of the issues they have and problems people have gone through using them.

So with that said unless you enjoy fishing games, this is not worth installing.

Still Looking To Earn Free Money?

Happy Fishing could potentially be for those who want to play a game or just looking to pass some time.

But who wants to sit through countless ads? Not me.

However, most of you are here for the money side of it.

So with that no longer available let me show you some ways that you can earn some income with little effort through some sites.

I have made a page of ones I recommend and put it into the best reward site list here so you can browse through and start earning money.

These pay you to do straightforward tasks such as playing brand new games, surveys, watching videos/tv and more.

Feel free to check them out as I have personally tried them all and had success.

That brings us to the end of the review if you have any questions or comments on Happy Fishing let me know.

You can contact me here or leave a comment, it’s entirely up to you.

Speak soon,

According to Lucky Go, your luck starts from a simple GO.

That’s what they say, and to be honest, I have no clue what it means.

However, from reading there most recent reviews, it seems like most of there users regret even installing the app.

In this Lucky Go app review, I will be having a look at how they operate and if it’s possible to win any money.

How they sell their app is by saying that there are rewards every day up for grabs. But seeing no payment proofs as got my questioning them without even installing it.

Let’s delve in, shall we.

Lucky Go Review Summary

• Owner: Lucky Go Team
• What Are They?: Free Casino App
• Cost: Free
• Verdict: Scam
• Recommended: No

What Is Lucky Go About?

Lucky Go is another casino themed app that is saying that users have the opportunity to get rewards each day.

This reward consists of both cash and a range of gift cards.

The app initially came my way because of an increased amount of people downloading it recently.

They have only been out since the 3rd of October but have already got 1 million downloads as well as hitting the top 10 of the top apps list.

Founded by the ‘Lucky Go Team,’ it makes this their first app to be released.

The app reminds me of Knife Bounty App and the Lucky Money App I have reviewed in the past few weeks.

Is It Free To Sign Up?

With any casino app, you will be thinking it’s free, or you will need to put some money in like a standard casino.

The Lucky Go App doesn’t require any money, meaning users can get rewarded for just using the app for free.

Of course, there is a reason why there are no costs so I will talk a bit later about why.

But for now, all you need to know is you can go and install it on your phone from the Google Play Store and get involved.

On launch, you will be told how the app works. You are not required to make an account and are given a random username.

But if you want to make sure your progress is saved a lot like a computer game, you are encouraged to sign up using Facebook.

To get you started Lucky Go give you a $1, it doesn’t mean much in the scheme of things as you will find out.

However, this is a welcome bonus they give to all new users as you can see by the below image.

How Can You Make Money?

As they are a casino themed app there are various games you can play to supposedly make money.

This includes:

1. Scratcher

Each day you are given scratchcards to rub off and win currency.

You will need to search for three of the same icon to win the prize of the scratcher.

For each one, you have a chance of either winning coins or actual money. You will also have to watch a short video to unlock each scratcher.

2. Spin

You can also have a go at spinning the wheel. To enter you will need to watch an ad (you can do this ten times) or use 4000 tokens anything from coins to amounts of money.

You can win from 1000-150,000 tokens, between 3-10 advanced spins and $0.10-$10 in cash.

With that said and saying what’s on offer I did do the spin five times and got a small number of tokens each time. It may just have to be lucky to get anything substantial.

3. Lotto

Each day you get a choice of 6 numbers from 0-59 for an opportunity to hit the cash jackpot.

The rewards consist of:

• 1 Ball – 50,000 Tokens
• 2 Balls – 250000 Tokens
• 3 Balls – 500000 Tokens
• 4 Balls – $5
• 5 Balls – $50
• 6 Balls (Including Bonus Ball) – $100,000

4. Various Raffles

Lucky Go hold various raffles over time. You can enter these each hour, day and week with no limit on the number of entries.

They also have a monthly raffle ticket where if you are chosen you can win $1000.

5. Quiz Game

A feature they have put in is the Quiz Game. Here you are given a daily challenge which you will need to complete to get the rewards.

For instance, on the first day, I installed the app, I was given 30 anagrams to solve. I, of course, got them all right and at the end was given more tokens.

How Important Are Tokens And Cash?

I have reviewed a good number of these apps to a point where I have noticed a recurring structure with them all.

Now for some people there seems to be some confusion with the currencies.

That is because there are two types which are often the case with apps like this one.

Again here we have tokens and cash.

Cash is, of course, the currency where you will get paid actual money if you have enough to cash out.

Tokens, on the other hand, aren’t that desired as they are easy to earn. However, if you can save up 3 million of them, you will be able to get a reward.

What I Am A Fan Off

1. Fun Games

If you take away the earning aspect, most people will find the scratching and games part quite fun.

Games like the quiz are something engaging that requires you to use your knowledge. You obviously have other things you can do.

The main thing is that it is free, and there is no harm to you by downloading it.

You won’t have any details hacked nor are you encouraged to purchase anything, so that aspect gets an all-clear.

What I Am Not A Fan

1. More Ads Then Watching TV

Some people don’t mind watching ads; however, whenever it is time for an ad break, you will typically see me with my head in my phone.

So with this app, it was never going to be a pleasant experience as you are given ad after ad.

What I found is that you can’t do anything without needing to watch 30 seconds from there partners.

When you want to play games this can drag out into a time-consuming session.

2. A Lot Of Claims That It Is Rigged

With the minimum threshold for the cash amount of $10, what do you is the average amount people are earning?

Well less than $9.99 or less, as I’m yet to see any proofs that the company are paying.

From the reviews, I’ve seen it seems to be a repeatable issue where once someone earns a certain amount that can cash out is not possible.

This doesn’t just go for this app, one of the first apps to follow this structure was Lucky Day App.

They have had a lot of negative reviews and have been accused of not paying out.

As you can see from the below review, a user expresses frustration in not being able to withdraw.

However, also have a look at this good review.

Lucky Go have a surprisingly high star rating, and I think most of that could be due to them paying people to say how good they are.

As you can see it is quite over the top and also fairly recent.

 

So Is Lucky Go A Scam?

Since there is no proof as of yet that Lucky Go pay I have labeled them a scam.

I don’t want you guys to join all the existing frustrated people using the app who are struggling to get paid.

However, once I see payment proofs come through, then I will change that statement.

With that said, I don’t recommend them anyway as a way to make a few dollars.

Yeah, I can see that it can be fun like I stated earlier, but it just isn’t worth the time and effort.

Sitting through countless ads isn’t how I want to spend my time hoping I will one day get lucky as it most likely won’t happen.

My Alternative – Promote #1 Reward Sites

The whole idea of making extra cash online, I’m talking paying for that bill, that Netflix subscription or even a meal out can be done.

It’s all about using the right sites that offer genuine extra income opportunities.

There is a lot of rubbish out there right now currently being promoted.

So what I have done is made a list of reward sites that I can vouch for.

These will help you make money by doing things like completing surveys, tasks, watching videos, searching the web and a lot more.

That brings my Lucky Go review to an end.

As you can see, I don’t like them, but I am interested in hearing if you do or even have anything to say about them.

There’s a comment section below where you can leave your say.
