    Earn gift cards in your spare time while online? Say what?  You mean I can be online and earn free gift cards at the same time? Yes and you can start today! 

     

     

     

    where to earn free gift cards

    How To Earn Gift Cards Online

     

     

    Earing gift cards in your spare time is actually easier then you think! Since we all spend time online, why not make the most of it and earn free gift cards? 

     


    We all spend a lot of time online. You might shop online, watch movies, play games, or keep in touch with friends and family. You're already here, so why not make the most of it and earn gift cards at the same time?

    Here are 5 websites that offer different ways you can earn gift cards in your spare time while you're already doing what you enjoy.

    #1 Dealspotr

    Dealspotr is a first of its kind: you get paid not only for shopping, but also for sharing deals and coupons you find online. In just over a year they've saved users over $15 million and it's viewed by over 1 millions shoppers per month.

    100% Crowd Sourced Deals by shoppers just like YOU! - Dealspotr is the "Wikipedia of deals". Unlike other earning sites that list deals directly from the companies (which can be spammy or make you jump through 10 hoops to get 2 points), Dealspotr has thousands of offers and savings posted by other shoppers like you. They know what's hot, what's not, and what things are just a scam.

    Forget having to download programs you don't want or taking surveys that put you on 20 email lists. Dealspotr rewards you for actions you actually WANT to do. Check out all the ways you can earn gift cards with Dealspotr:

    • Daily on-site tasks
    • Adding and editing deals you find online, in store, or through email
    • Validating the deals you find on DealSpotr
    • If your deal goes "hot" you get even more points
    • Comment on other users' shares
    • Flag shares that are no longer valid or don't work
    • Contests and Sweepstakes
    • and more!

    earn gift cards at home dealspotr

    Know which deals are HOT - Visually identify deals that are hot, expiring, limited time, or brand new. Ratings and share counts on deals let you know at a glance if it's something you want to spend your time (and money) on. And these aren't tiny little discounts either! Find 50% and higher off your favorite brands and stores, buy-one-get-one, free gifts, and more.

    Personalize Deals Just For You -  Similar to your Facebook news feed, you can subscribe to specific brands, topics, and people and curate a daily feed of deals personalized for you.

    Example Points:  Varies according to the user's "accuracy score" - The more deals you post, the more points you earn
    Example Reward: 10,000 pts = $10 Amazon

    • Rewards:  Amazon Gift Cards, and PayPal rewards for influencers
    • Methods:  Posting Deals / Validating Deals
    • Mobile App: No
    • Browser Extension: No

    Pros:  No spam downloads or surveys / rewarded for shares / high quality coupons and codes / fast earning / user help forum
    Cons: None

    It's super easy to earn gift cards using Dealspotr, it's even reasonably easy to earn your first $10 gift card on your first few days using Dealspotr. Plus, you're helping shoppers save money (and saving money yourself) while you're earning.

    Signup bonus: Use code MOMSKOOP
    Sign up with the button below & use the MOMSKOOP code to earn an extra 1,000 points.  To earn the points, you must complete your new user checklist and post/share your first valid deal.  YOU MUST enter my code MOMSKOOP to get the extra points.

    #5 GrabPoints

    If you play a lot of mobile games or enjoy taking surveys, GrabPoints is a good fit.
