    Who Is Curious Cat 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.

    How Does Curious Cat Work?

    For Respondents

    To become a respondent for Curious Cat, you'll first need to download the app and create an account. When creating your account, you'll need to provide your mobile phone number and email address (your phone number is used to verify your location and identity).

    After verifying your account, you'll be able to log in and access the Curious Cat dashboard. Right away, you should have some profile surveys to answer. You'll earn 5 points for filling these out and, by sharing some basic info about yourself, you'll receive more relevant surveys.

    Optionally, you can also choose to share your location to receive even more relevant surveys. These typically pay more and have a higher qualification rate as well.

    Aside from surveys, Curious Cat also offers paid promotional tasks. These may ask you to do things like try out a new service, download a gaming app and reach a certain level, or similar. Companies pay for these types of things as a form of advertising, so sometimes they'll require a payment of some sort, but that isn't always the case.

    Another alternative way to earn money on Curious Cat is through their passive digital profiler opportunities. By letting Curious Cat essentially spy on your device and see which types of digital media (TV, streaming, radio etc.) you watch/listen to, you can earn money passively. These programs seem to be invite-only though, so you won't have access to them right away.

    Overall, the average task on Curious Cat pays between 20-200 points. You can choose to complete (or not complete) any task you receive. That said, when completing tasks, you should try to do them all in one sitting as otherwise, they may expire.

    Cashing out:

    Once you have at least $1.18 (~100 Points) in your earnings balance, you can cash out via PayPal or TrueMoney. Payouts typically take 0-1 days to be sent out.

    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:
    • 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.
    Pros and cons are based on real Curious Cat Respondent reviews.

    Fast cashouts

    Rated 4 out of 5
    1 year ago

    One of the most reliable and worth-it apps to use if you want to earn money. It takes pretty fast to cash out your earnings.

    Pros:

    Clean UI. Pay is good. Cute cat-themed. Easy to use.

    Cons:

    Sometimes you don't get the reward after finishing the survey. Long surveys.

    Tips:

    Do the surveys that give the most money first.

    Be prepared to be disappointed if you finish a survey and they don't give you your money. Be prepared to be disappointed if you get locked out.

    Best for UK residents since the app pays in £

    Rated 4 out of 5
    1 year ago

    It started out great, I was racking up the earnings. Then after one app update, they locked my account. I messaged customer support about it, they were prompt at responding but there was nothing they could do.

    Pros:

    I love the cute lay out

    Cons:

    Pays in pounds. High cashout.

    Tips:

    Make sure you have a PayPal so it can convert £ to $

    The best strategy to earn the most is do as much surveys in a row as you can since they are only worth like £0.30 per survey.

    One of the nicest survey apps I've ever used

    Rated 4 out of 5
    2 years ago

    Curious Cat is honestly one of the nicest survey apps I've ever used. That's because of how neat and simple everything is made for you. You don't have to go through multiple Survey routers to find surveys that match you so you can be certain to finish the survey and get your points.

    Also most of the surveys I like to finish are the ones that pay 100+ points and so that's just a nice way to get a quick buck or two. Also Paypal was always the only way I like to cashout and that being the only way makes it simple for me although it can be annoying for others that like to have a wide range of withdrawal options.

    I also love that you receive your cash instantly with their automated cashout, so you don't have to wait around until you get your earnings. Overall the app is made very nice and smooth to use and you can almost guarantee about $10 a month using the app minimally.

    Pros:

    Good amount of high paying surveys from time to time. Most surveys don't take too long. Easy to find and start a survey. Brings surveys that you can almost always qualify for and finish. Instant payout via PayPal is awesome.

    Cons:

    Have to check constantly and refresh the page for surveys to show up. Surveys are not always available, may have a couple of hours pass with no surveys showing up. Some surveys may not work although it's almost always fine.

    Tips:

    Remember to check the app and refresh the app constantly as surveys may not show up sometimes. Also don't rush through the surveys, make sure you read them out and answer the questions truthfully for a higher chance of completing them.

    Also another way to increase your earnings is by turning on location sharing, which evidently does bring in more surveys, while being more fit into your demographic so you have more successful surveys.
