Make MoneyBest For
If you're an Amazon customer in the U.S. or U.K. and wouldn't mind submitting your receipts and opinions with Amazon, the Shopper Panel can offer a source of extra income.
Best For
Curious Cat is for anyone looking to earn spare cash on their phone. The app won't make you rich, but it offers an easy way to earn a few bucks here and there.
If you're looking for more of a full-time income (or something more challenging and skill-building) the Curious Cat app probably isn't for you.

Pros
- Pays well for the amount of work and time required.
- Income is guaranteed as long as you remember to upload your receipts.
- Good choice of payout options with Amazon gift card being very commonly used and charity donations being a nice alternative.
Pros
- If you're disqualified partway through a survey due to the quota being filled, you'll get 1 point as a small consolation prize.
- Easy way to earn extra money on your phone in your spare time.
- Simple user-friendly layout with a "cute" cat theme (depends if you like cats or not).
Cons
- Earnings are limited as you can only get paid for up to 10 receipts per month.
- Payout speed is quite slow as you have to wait an entire month in some cases.
- The "ad sharing/verification" opportunity pays quite little considering it involves sharing a lot of data with Amazon.
Cons
- No referral program.
- Surveys can be long and boring at times, and if you don't have desirable demographics, you might get disqualified more often.
- Curious Cat will not replace a full-time income.
