Viggle ~ Get Paid To Watch TV!
Viggle is a revolutionary app where you get rewards just for watching tv!
Name of the site: Viggle
Reward System: Points
How to earn: You have to have an iOS device or in the future, an android phone. Once you have signed up using the link above or this one, its time to download the app from the apple app store, and the future android store. Right now it is only available for the iOS devices, but they have said in the next month or so they will begin beta testing for the android so sign up now to get into beta testing! Once you have the app you can open it up and sign in, once you are signed in just go to ‘check in’. Have your TV on and tap in the center of the screen where it say s’tap here to check in’ . The app will listen to your tv for about 30 seconds and about 90% of the time it will identify what you are watching right away, if it doesn’t you can try checking in again. If the second check in does not work it will take you to a screen where you can type in what you are watching to check in. When it has the show you are watching click ‘confirm check in’ after that, you will see some options. You can share your check in on twitter or facebook, to get a 5 point bonus. Also sometimes there will be an ad you can click on for bonus points, it will be the first option under the TV show image. Now for each regular show you get a point for every minute you watch, so a half hour show typically is about 27-29 minutes because they do not always count the commercials. After the show is done, just click back and you can check into the next show. Now if you want to earn points more points then what you would get from your regular shows, you can check into the featured shows which you can find by going to ‘whats on’ . On the featured shows there will be 20 screens that you can scroll through by swiping through them, a few of them will be ads you can watch for bonus points. On each featured show you will see the amount of points you can get for checking in, the day its on, the time and the channel. You may notice that there are several shows on at the same time, don’t worry though because you can check into many shows in an hour and get full credit for them if they are featured shows. The only thing required is to be on the show for 10 minutes, after that you can check into another show. For example at 8 on thursday I can watch the first 10 minutes of The Office and get 225 points, then at 8:10 (Or preferably 8:15 to be safe) I can switch it to Grey’s Anatomy for 175 points, switch it at 8:30 to Swamp people for 125, and at 8:45 switch it to The Secret Circle for 150 points. In that hour I would earn 675 points in bonus, plus the roughly 60 minutes of points for watching tv AND if they have bonus point ads I can get up to another 50 per ad possibly. Ads range from 5-50 bonus points at this moment.
Membership Program: None
Rewards you can get: The types of awards you can get on the app keep changing, though some of the constant ones are free redbox rentals, fanatics gift card, starbucks gift card, papa johns, and more. You can even save up your points to get an 8 gb ipod touch or a kindle fire!
Referral system: You get 200 points when a person checks in. It seems the referral system is relatively new and the points don’t get to you right away.
Countries That Can Use It: USA. I’m not sure about others, I will ask about it though!
Pros: Very easy to use! Get paid to watch tv! Rewards constantly updating, if one disappears it comes back up later on so just keep saving your points! You can easily make over a thousand points a day just by watching the primetime tv! Lots of options to cash in on, electric gift cards are sent right away!
Cons: Sometimes it won’t pick u on what you are watching, especially if you are low on battery but after a second failed attempt it gives you a search bar to use to check in!
My experience with the website: I was very unsure of this when I signed up with it, I saw it mentioned on a lens along with a lot of other ways to make money on a mobile. Even so I spent a few days checking in on my iPad thinking I would get a DVD rental from red box if it paid, then I happen to check the rewards one day and saw a new one they didn’t have before..a hot topic gift card! I immediately applied for that, I had to confirm my account through email and fill out my profile the rest of the way. When I had done that I clicked on redeem, a few seconds later my email was going off telling me I had a gift card code! I went to hot topic and immediately put in an order using my gift card code, and it was legit. I was paid for watching tv! This is the best app in the world! Its so much fun being paid to do something I do already! I fully recommend this to everyone!
