12 Ways to Make Money in Your Free Time

Believe it or not, despite inflation and despite all of the issues going on financially for everyone right now, there’s still plenty of ways to earn money … especially during your free time.

Part of this does depend upon what you define as free time. Is it when you have a moment to spare, or is it when you’re done working for the day?

The reason that’s important is because each of the jobs below can be done in minutes in some cases, and others could take a few hours. Depending on what you’re looking for, here are 12 ways to make money in your free time.

Mistplay

A personal low-stake’s favorite of mine is Mistplay. This service allows you to play games on your phone and earn credits which then earn you actual cash. It may not be the quickest way to earn money, however every penny counts.

DoorDash and Uber Eats

More and more people are learning how to make more money with DoorDash. This is a great way for people who have a viable vehicle to make a few bucks on the side, or even make an entire career!  You can also work for Uber Eats. Either direction, you’ll be able to earn money on the side during your free time.

Transcription Work

Another job that anyone can do is transcription work. There are several different websites that work from handwritten documents, or from videos or audio files.

This type of work can be time-consuming if you’re not used to typing on a regular basis. However, if you can type well, then this may be one of the best ways for you to earn money without having to travel around.

Work as a BETA Tester

As more and more of our world becomes digital, the need for BETA testers also increases. If you would like to test apps, websites, games, and more then you can find several sites that are looking for beta testers.

Write a Blog

If you’re using your spare time to express yourself, you may want to try writing a blog. When you write a blog you can bring in revenue via advertisements, working with other bloggers, or generating income through affiliate links.

Share Your Knowledge

Another one of the more popular ways to make passive income during your free time is sharing your knowledge: this one can get a bit extensive.

When you have a specific set of skills or knowledge that you have gained over time, you can easily share that knowledge with other people for a set fee. You can do this by creating a website, sharing courses on Fiverr, and many other ways.

Take Surveys

There are many survey sites willing to pay you.  Now it’s not going to be $10 per survey, and more often than not it’s cents on the dollar. However, depending upon how quickly you answer your surveys, you can make quite a bit during your free time just by chilling and answering a few questions.

Sell What You Make

If you are a crafty person or you like to make things, then selling what you make may be the better option for you. Something to keep in mind is that some websites may take a cut of what you make.

If you’re making things in your free time then every dollar you make is a dollar made when you were doing something fun!

Pick up Dog Walking

There are different applications that you can use where you can sign up to be a dog walker. These types of jobs are ones that you can take at anytime of the day whenever you have the availability.

Not only are you going to get outside and have some fun walking around, you’re also going to get to walk a dog, or a group of dogs, full of energy and ready to go.

Uber and Lyft

Two of the most popular ways to get around just about anywhere are Uber and Lyft. If you’re willing to keep your car clean and up to snuff at all times, then you can definitely try this type of service.

You can develop your ratings, and you can always gain additional tips based upon your service. It all depends upon what you want to do.

Start Tutoring

If you have a deep understanding of a subject that people need help with, then why not start tutoring? Working as a tutor allows you to set your own hours, and you can also do this in your free time during the weekends or during weeknights.

Self-Publish

Finally, the last way that you can earn money during your free time is to self-publish. You can either write a book, create a planner, or create any type of material that somebody else would want to buy.  Go to Kindle Direct Publishing  to start working on your first project now!

Conclusion

No matter what type of time investment you have, there’s always something that you can do in your free time to earn a new source of income. Diversify your income, and have fun while you’re doing it. Play games, beta test, walk dogs, or even write your own book.

It’s all up to you and the options are endless!
