The App:
VoxPopMe is a smart phone app, available on iOs and Android.

How to earn:
VoxPopMe pays you to record short (15-60 second) videos of your opinion on a particular subject, or a review of a particular brand or product. The video is then uploaded and once reviewed, you receive your payment into your wallet. You also earn £1 per successful referral, however you can only invite friends from Facebook and your phone contacts.

Payment method(s) & thresholds:
Payout is made automatically via Paypal once you reach the £10 threshold, in multiples of £10. Any earnings that haven’t been redeemed after 12 months are automatically revoked.

My verdict:
I love anything that lets me earn money from my iPhone, but the biggest downside to VoxPopMe is what they then do with your video responses. The responses can be used for market research or even appear on their blog. For more information, check out their terms. Overall I’m impressed with VoxPopMe and will continue to use the app.

The app:
Field Agent is a mystery shopping app for your iPhone.

How to earn:
Using the Field Agent app, you can complete short tasks to earn money. These are usually paid between £3-£6 and can include visiting supermarkets and taking photos of stock displays; checking which products staff recommend or checking that businesses are still located at certain addresses.

Payment method and threshold:
Payment is via Paypal and there is no payment threshold. The payment takes no more than 7 days to arrive in your Paypal account.

My verdict
Whilst Field Agent is worth downloading, I’ve only made £16 to date from 3 jobs. There are always a handful of jobs available in my local area, but they’re not jobs I want to complete (such as a nightclub audit).The jobs are short and sweet, and there’s a wide variety. You only have two hours after accepting a job to complete it, so you cannot forward plan – meaning I’ve lost out on a few jobs.
