Yes, you read this right. It is very possible to make easy money with your mobile device, and from the comfort of your abode too.
In today’s economy, it’s important to think of innovative ways to earn an income, with the times changing every day. Set yourself apart from the norm and get some extra side cash while others engage in the traditional hustle. The best part of this is that you get to use your favourite device, your phone, which we learnt at
Africa’s first phone photography conference -powered by Connect Nigeria and OneDot Photography – can be used to take stunning, breathtaking photos.
Here are a few interesting platforms you could try:
1.
Snapwire: The platform is open to photographers of all levels of experience. Requests are sent in from companies and profile galleries which users can bid for and earn some money, along with competitions held by the website itself. The website is free to use but team behind it gets a 30% cut from photographs sold.
2.
Scoopshot: Users can participate in one-day challenges submitted by brands. Photograph prices can be set, and you can also add new friends and like their photos.
3.
Stylinity: Here’s an application for the ultimate fashion-forward selfie taker. Take an outfit photo and match items with pieces online on the site. Users get points when visitors purchase items that are on their profiles; points that can be redeemed for money and prizes from the companies.
4.
Foap: Upload absolutely anything with the free app on to the Foap marketplace (you must have an account to participate). Someone would buy the license to your photo for $10 and you can make half when the photo is sold. Aside from the regular marketplace, you can participate in one of the many “missions” from large brands like Puma and Sony.
5.
Clashot: Share your beautiful photos with the Clashot community who will give likes or serve as potential buyers. Sadly, you cannot set the price or negotiate image’s copyright with the buyer.
