Games for Cash: Legit or Scam?

 

Last year, I downloaded a Solitaire game on my iPhone because, supposedly, I could win money from it. The game gave me cash to start (I think $5.00), and I played and played and played. Not once did I put any of my own money into it. I started with the $1 game, then went to the $3 game, and so on. I ended up winning a total of $75.00, which was LEGIT. The higher the amount you play, the more likely you are to win. For example, if I have a balance of $20.00, I won’t play anything lower than $7.00. But I also don’t want to play the entire $20.00. So, I chose the $12.00 game. Always leave at least a $5.00 balance because you can play a $1 or $3 game with that.

There are several legit cash-paying games out there. Many do not pay, and you completely waste your time. I found that out with another Solitaire game I started. I was winning, winning, winning! My balance was $80.00 in no time. I tried to cash out, and the game said I had to reach $100 to cash out. Needless to say, I never reached $100. I had to watch ad after ad after ad and got to about $91 and said SCREW IT. It’s a waste of time. Honestly, you get like a penny for every other win.

Tip: If you see an ad for a game that shows your PayPal going up after every “correct” move, it is FAKE. Obviously, no one is going to pay you for every move. You’re not going to make $1,000 a day, no matter what the ads tell you.

Here are the LEGIT games I play for cash. Please note that you do NOT have to put a penny of your money into these games to win; I advise you don’t. You do get daily bonuses just for opening the app. Let them give you the money.

  1. Solitaire Clash
  2. Bubble Buzz
  3. Cash Arena
  4. Bingo Tour
  5. Solitaire Clash Infinite

I also use Play Hive. 
This is an app that allows you to play many games to add up to cash.

Please note that for Play Hive, you get two hours to play (with many, many ads), then it calculates your points, turns them into cash, and resets the time. The money doesn’t accrue for much, but I’m over $15.00 so far. I’ll play until the year's end and see how much I get. *If you play each game consistently for fifteen minutes or more (even letting ads run), you’ll get higher points which gives you more money.

For the other games, I only cash out if I have more than $50.00, leaving at least $5.00 so I can continue playing. FYI: If these games give you “bonus” cash, you don’t get to cash that out.

To sum up, many games really do pay you to win, but don’t fall into the trap of putting money in. And remember, the games that advertise you winning after playing a move are fake.

Happy playing!
