Make MoneyBest For
CashKarma is for anyone looking for an easy way to potentially earn some extra cash in their spare time. It can even be kind of fun for some. However, don't expect it to replace a full-time income -- it's not a big money-maker!
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 in both cash and gift cards (with a good selection of options).
- Decent selection of different opportunities to earn points.
- Gives you 5% back when you redeem your points. (e.g. if you redeem 10,000 points, you get 500 back).
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
- Low point value/confusing system.
- Offers have a lot of ads.
- Won't make you much money unless you get a lot of referrals.
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.
