If you have a little one at home — you know how difficult it can be to get things done. But just because you have a household filled with chatter and unpredictable schedules doesn’t mean that you can’t work from home. Short tasks, also called micro-jobs or pay-per-task jobs, are the perfect way for busy moms to earn some extra money while still being readily available for their kiddos.
A micro-task job is any job or assignment that can be completed in a short amount of time. The tasks that can be completed vary in nature (writing, editing, taking surveys, transcription, watching a video, online research, etc.), as does the pay. But the reason this is such an excellent opportunity for moms is that the tasks can be done at any time, and the majority of short jobs don’t require phone work, which requires a quiet household.
If you have kiddos running around your house, here are 24 small task sites that allow you to work whenever you have free time, and make extra money on the side.
1. Swagbucks
Swagbucks is a microtask platform where you can earn points called SB, which you can redeem for gift cards from places like Starbucks, Walmart, PayPal and Visa. With Swagbucks, you can earn SB by playing games, answering questions, shopping online, and even surfing the web using their search bar. If you refer your friends — you can earn even more. New users will receive a $10.00 sign-up bonus! The thing I like about Swagbucks is you can redeem your earnings with as little as $3.00 in your account.
- Swagbucks has a B rating with the Better Business Bureau
2. InboxDollars
With InboxDollars, US residents can earn cash for taking surveys, reading emails, playing games, redeeming coupons, searching the web, and shopping online. Membership is free, and you’ll earn $5.00 for signing up. Your account must reach a $15 threshold before your payment is issued. Payment options include PayPal, American Express or Visa Pre-Paid cards, or gift cards from major retailers. InboxDollars is open to US residents 18 years and older. If you’d like to know more, check out our full review of InboxDollars.
- InboxDollars has a B rating with the Better Business Bureau
3. Course Hero
Course Hero is a short task platform that hires native English speakers from the US, UK, Canada, and Australia to tutor high school and college students with course-specific questions. Individuals must have a bachelor’s degree. Tutors earn an average of $3.00 per question, earning around $12-$20 per hour. Work as many hours as you’d like; all you need is a reliable internet connection.
- Course Hero has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau
4. TELUS International
TELUS International, which acquired Lionbridge, hires independent contractors to work on microtasks like translation, transcription, rating ads, annotation, search engine evaluation, and testing. You must first prove your proficiency by taking and passing relevant evaluation tests (which I’ve heard are pretty challenging). Once they have your evaluation scores, you’ll receive invites to work on available projects. With these gigs, you can work whenever, wherever, and as much as you’d like.
- TELUS International has an A- rating with the Better Business Bureau
5. Fiverr
Fiverr is a little different in that you don’t search for jobs. Instead, you post tasks you’re willing to complete for $5.00-$10,000. People sell everything from writing services, design services, and voice-over services to making phone calls and videos. Once you make a sale, Fiverr will keep a fee of 20%, and payments will be made via PayPal.
If you’re interested in how people are making a full-time income with Fiverr, check out The Fiverr Mastermind Group. They are six Fiverr power sellers who earn six figures a year each, and they wrote an e-book about their success with the platform: The Fiverr Master Class: The Fiverr Secrets Of Six Power Sellers That Enable You To Work From Home!
- Fiverr gets an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau
6. Amazon Mechanical Turk
Over at Amazon’s MTurk, you can make money online working on HITS (Human Intelligence Tasks). A few of the tasks that I saw listed were transcribing information from a business card to a form with a payout of $0.02. Another task was transcribing a voicemail from audio to text (audio length of three hours), a payout of $76.19. After completing the task and the requester approves your work, the money goes into your Amazon payments account or onto an Amazon gift card.
Amazon MTurk tends to get mixed reviews. Some people complained of low payouts, and others have said their work wasn’t approved, so they didn’t get paid. We have no way of knowing the quality of their work, and if denial of payment was justified, so read through reviews before deciding to join.
- Amazon’s MTurk receives a 2.5-star rating on Trustpilot
7. Clickworker
Clickworker is a task site platform where you can get paid for writing, translating, researching, and collecting data. Create an account, fill out your profile, complete a qualification assessment, then bid on jobs. Payments are made by SEPA bank account transfers or PayPal once your account reaches 5.00 euros and your tax information has been completed. Clickworker’s clients include Groupon, Tennis Point, Honda, PayPal, and others.
- Clickworker receives a 3.2-star rating on Indeed
8. Appen
Appen is a virtual workspace where you can earn money by completing simple tasks on your computer. Duties include Internet research, data collection, data categorization, content creation, content moderation, surveys, and other projects and microtasks that can be done anywhere in the world.
- Appen receives a 3.5-star rating on Indeed
9. Vericant
Vericant is a platform where individuals can rate videos for cash at any time of the day. Remote raters will assess the spoken English of international college students applying to schools in the United States. To be eligible to rate videos, you must be able to work 5-15 hours per week between September and March. You also need to be a native English speaker from North America, have a bachelor’s degree, and have an excellent command of the English language.
- Vericant receives a 4-star rating on Glassdoor.com
10. Field Agent
Field Agent allows you to make money by completing mystery shopping gigs on your phone. From checking shelf availability and product reviews to surveys and buy and try. Tasks pay anywhere from $3.00-$12.00 per job, and payments are made via PayPal. Field Agent works with brands like Tyson, Target, and Hershey’s and has been featured on CNET, Forbes, and The New York Times. This app is available for iOS and Android devices.
- Field Agent receives a 4.5-star rating in the Apple app store
11. Rev
While not promoted as a short task site, Rev offers task-based positions for transcribers, translators, and closed captioners that can be done anytime. The pay range for translators is by language minute, so for instance, German pays $3.00 a minute.
For transcribers, it’s $0.30-$1.10 per audio minute, and for closed captioners, it’s $0.54-$1.10 per audio minute. With Rev, you choose your schedule and projects, and payments are made weekly via PayPal. Rev has been featured in Inc, The Wall Street Journal, and VentureBeat.
- Rev receives a 2.7-star rating on Indeed
12. GigWalk
GigWalk is a mobile workforce of individuals using their smartphones to perform short tasks. Register, apply for an assignment, and then complete the task (usually verifying roads and street signs, geographic landmarks, or transportation options). Gigwalk’s workforce is available in multiple US cities. GigWalk has been featured on CNN, Business Insider, and Forbes.
- Gigwalk receives a 4-star rating in the Apple app store
13. DataAnnotation Tech
DataAnnotation Tech is a small task platform where you make money completing various AI tasks, such as surveys, interacting with chatbots, creative writing, coding projects, and more. While no experience is required for these AI jobs, they are looking for applicants with excellent writing skills, critical thinking ability, and a high level of attention to detail. With DataAnnotation Tech, you can earn $20 per hour for writing tasks, and $40 per hour for coding tasks, and payments are made via PayPal. These online tasks are available to individuals in the US, Canada, Ireland, UK, New Zealand, and Australia.
- DataAnnotation Tech gets a 4-star rating on Glassdoor
14. TaskRabbit
TaskRabbit is an on-demand site where you complete tasks such as house cleaning, delivery services, handyman work, furniture assembly, grocery shopping, administrative help, and more. To get started, create an account, get a background check, then browse the open tasks in your city and make an offer. TaskRabbit keeps 20% of what you make, and payments are made via check every two weeks once your account reaches $25.00.
- TaskRabbit gets a 4.3-star rating on Trustpilot
15. Fancy Hands
Fancy Hands hires US-based virtual assistants to complete small tasks like making phone calls, scheduling appointments, tracking down the best price for a product or service, internet research, and data entry. Tasks are worth anywhere from $3.00-$7.00 per task and go up from there. Payments are made via Dwolla every other Tuesday. With this job, you can work on your own schedule, day or night. One thing to note. I’ve heard some people say that the platform is saturated with workers, so there isn’t very much work available. Be sure to read the most current reviews before you take the time to apply.
- Fancy Hands receives a 2.9-star rating on Glassdoor
16. Datavio.ai
Datavio.ai which is part of iSoftStone, hires people from around the globe to work on short tasks like app testing, annotation, transcription, data labeling, translation, and more. Each project has different skill and education requirements and varying pay rates. One data collection project required users to work 30-40 hours per week and paid $25 per hour. All the projects I viewed were independent contracting roles; some included training, while others did not.
- iSoftStone gets a 3.5-star rating on Glassdoor.com
17. Respondent
Respondent is a research study organization that pays individuals to participate in focus group studies, short surveys, and website testing gigs. According to their website, the average study or survey is 30 minutes in length, and the average payout is $75 per study. Many of their studies are for professionals, not the general public, so you’ll need to meet specific criteria to qualify for studies. Payments come through your PayPal account.
- Respondent receives a 1.6-star rating on Trustpilot, but many of the poor reviews were complaining that they didn’t qualify for any studies. I’ve had good luck using the platform, so be sure to read my full review on Respondent.
18. UserTesting
If you have short periods of quiet time in your schedule (perhaps during your child’s nap time), you can make money testing websites and apps on UserTesting. With this platform, you create an account and browse projects. Once you find a project that fits your demographic, you’ll take a screener test, and if you’re a match, you’ll get an invite to the project. UserTesting has short, medium, and longer length projects that pay anywhere from $4-$120. Payments come every 14 days via PayPal.
- UserTesting has a 3.9-star rating on Trustpilot
19. JustAnswer
JustAnswer pays individuals to answer questions online in their area of training or expertise. They currently hire people from the US and Canada, and during the application process, you’ll need to provide your relevant licenses or certifications. With this short task site, you can work as many hours as you’d like; log in wherever you have some free time. According to their website, top earners can make $2,000-$7,000 per month; monthly payments are distributed via PayPal.
- JustAnswer has an A rating with the Better Bussiness Bureau

Some projects pay by the hour, and others pay a fixed price based on the project. The main job categories include IT, design, sales and marketing, writing and translation, admin and customer support, and finance and accounting. Once you find a task that appeals to you, send your proposal to the business owner and wait to see if you’re chosen for the assignment.

Depending on your experience, Byron pays $20-$28 per hour every two weeks via PayPal.
- Byron has a 4.3-star rating on Glassdoor.com
Last Words About Short Task Jobs
A few last words about micro-task sites.
There are other micro job sites out there, but not all are reputable. If you find another short task site, please do your research to ensure that they are legit and worth your time. Trustpilot, Glassdoor, Indeed, and the BBB are excellent places to search for reviews. Also, look to see when the app or website was last updated. Apps and websites that are sitting on the web stagnant are susceptible to hackers placing viruses, malware, and trojans which can potentially steal your personal information.
Because opportunities will not always be available, you should consider signing up for multiple sites. This way, you have a better chance of consistently having tasks to choose from. But before you register, you’ll want to create an email account just for these opportunities. Many of these sites send a lot of emails, and it will be easier to manage if you have a separate email account just for your short task jobs.
All of these are independent contracting roles, so you’ll need to set aside money for self-employment taxes.
Lastly, short tasks will not make you rich, but they are an easy way to earn a little extra cash without having to get a job. After all, you’re most likely online, so instead of scrolling through Facebook or Instagram, use your time to make some extra money.

It looks very suspicious. There is no information about the company, and there is no way to contact them. They have vague job descriptions, and there’s no presence of the company other than their website.

Oh my goodness I do not know if it is me or what but CrowdFlower is horrible! I tried it just now because of the recommendation and I couldn’t log in to the task. It said it couldn’t find my email address. I don’t know if they need to update the script on their site or what (which looks criminally old BTW) but I’m going to try out OneSpace first. Thanks for the articles, I work full time but going to try to earn some on the side to pay off some bills that came up recently out of the blue and some moving expenses that will be coming up. Thanks again!
Hey Ashley, Thanks for sharing your experience! I’ve never tried CrowdFlower, so maybe some other people can speak about their experience with them.
the same happened to me
Holly I Love because is Excellent you Work in this Website… In the moment that I enter captive all my attention and I was interested in reading a lot of information (it is very rare that I passed that to me)…
I must say that when I saw the date of publication of this post I became very unmotivated, but when I saw that you still answered the comments and updated the site, I admired you much more. I CONGRATULATE YOU.
Off Topic: (I USE TRANSLATORS)
I am to Latin America and my english is very bad (80%), I need a website that is easy to understand and use, simple tasks that help me generate a few dollars…

Glad you’re enjoying the site, Sandra!
Hello,
I have been a VA for over 6 years. Recently Upwork (formerly Odesk) has changed it policy and I found out I can no longer work when I came back from a hiatus. The nice thing about Upwork is that people from all over the world can work here for people all over theworld too. Can you please recommend work sites like this? I found out that many US based work from home do not hire people outside the US and you need a 1099. I love working online and on graveyard shifts. Tips are highly appreciated ( I did look up the other websites mentioned above).
Thank you.
Have you tried Freelancer, Guru, People Per Hour, Toptal, iFreelance, Project 4 Hire, Outsourcely, or Aquent?
Hi Holly
Thank you sharing such great information. Everything is so helpful and informative. I am semi-retired and I would like to work remotely. During the week I take care of our granddaughter but I would like to earn extra money and the Task Jobs seem to offer the best opportunity for me. However, I have one question concerning Crowdflower. Do you know if it is possible to pick the tasks you would like to work on and complete?
Thank you
Barbara
Hi Barbara, I believe you can choose which tasks you want to complete. Good luck and keep me posted!
I use Field Agent, the jobs vary in what is asked; the key is to reserve the assignment as quickly as possible and then complete the job. Somethings have been difficult to complete with small children (i.e. beer store audit), however I sometimes just pop them in the shopping cart while I complete the assignment.
Thank you so much for compiling the information! I will definately check out these platforms!
Thanks for sharing, Monica. I’ve been wanting to try Field Agent out — haven’t gotten around to it yet.
Great list Holly! I remember working on some of these sites when I first started working from home. They don’t pay much but it adds to the bottom line. :)
Thanks for putting this together! No doubt I’m sharing this one too!
Have a great weekend!

Spare 5 is a short task site too, and you can download the app for Iphone on the app store and also work from a computer, in its web app. Tasks are very intuitive and each one has instructions, in case you can’t understand or just don’t know how to do it.
To sign up: open spare5.com, then click on “start tasking”, select “launch webtasks” and fill the blank spaces. I write this because at first I didn’t know where to sign up, just in case anyone could have the same confusion as me.
PD: Sorry for my basic english.
Thanks for sharing this, Micaela!
I’m looking for a no experience necessary jobs that pay via PayPal. No phone calls required. I can type but not as fast as I used to so transcribing is not an option. Are there any proofreading or spell check jobs that hire with absolutely no experience? I do really well with proofreading or spell check, just haven’t tried in a job setting.

I’m interested in applying for this type of employment, while I’m in between finding a job. Although I don’t understand who to discuss it with, or what kind of tasks are being completed. Sounds great if it’s legit.
Each site offers different types of tasks; just depends on what you want to do. Good luck and keep us posted!
This site allows you to earn via small tasks you can do online. its a great alternative to fiverr and all the rest of the sites you mentioned.

pls how do we cash the money,when they don’t even have our own account details,how do I get my money?
Depending on the method of payment — you’ll either have to set up a PayPal account or open a bank account. You can also cash checks at check cashing stores and retailers like 7-11 and Walmart. They will charge you a fee based on the amount of the check.
Holly, another nice read. Thanks for the pointers.
Glad you enjoyed the list, Tammy! Do you plan to try any of these out?

Hallo Mohamed,
I live in Africa and it is sooo frustrating for us because we are locked out of most online jobs. But microworkers.com and crowdflower through clixsense is working for me. At crowdflower it will take some time to get tasks which will eventually raise your level and you will get more tasks, be patient and you will see results.
All the best.
Thanks for sharing, Rehema!
CampusTasker is another great Task site. CampusTasker is a site built for college students (Taskers) wanting to make a little extra cash doing odd jobs. Taskers can create accounts and list their skills, task requesters can then post tasks they need done and Taskers are then able to “Bid” on the tasks that they wish to perform.
It’s a good chance…if there will be good payment
Thanks for sharing but I think earning on these micro task website is very slow, well still good for beginners
I think micro-tasks are great for beginners! They don’t take any special skills and they’re a good way to earn money in between looking for jobs, polishing your resume, and interviewing.
And if you use Task Rabbit — you can make pretty decent money — although you won’t be working online.
I personally use Swaybucks and it helps support my Starbucks habit! I wrote about it here in case you’re interested: https://www.theworkathomewoman.com/free-starbucks/
