U-Haul
U-Haul is a well-known company (I’m sure you’ve heard of them) that occasionally has work from home customer service type jobs available. This is definitely more of a real job than an extra money gig like most of what is listed here. Most of the work from home customer service jobs I come across require that applicants be at least 18 years old, but U-Haul hires workers that are as young as 16!
You can read my full review of U-Haul here or go here to check and see if they have work from home positions available now.
Sell on Etsy
Etsy is an online marketplace for all things handmade and vintage. You can open up a shop on Etsy with your parent’s consent if you are under the age of 18. However, your parent or guardian will have to additionally be the one who manages your shop.

My Likes
If you are a teen very active on social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) you can earn some money sharing links through My Likes. You can sign up for My Likes as long as you are at least 13. They pay out with Paypal once a week on Fridays if you have earned at least $1. You also have the option of getting paid with an Amazon gift code.
Revenue-Share Writing
Are you a writer? You’ll find that most of the upfront pay writing sites won’t let you register until you are at least 18, but luckily many of the rev-share sites will let teens sign up to write. Revenue share sites allow you to write articles across many different subjects and accumulate money over time on those articles through ad clicks, social media shares, and more. Some revenue share writing sites that will let teens sign up are as follows:
Survey Panels
You can get paid a little bit for sharing your opinions as a teen. Many, many online survey panels do permit you to sign up as long as you are at least 13 years old. Like most other things you can do as a teen, this is money that is slow to build up. But the more survey panels you are a member of, the more survey invitations you should receive. Doing surveys here and there as you receive them can certainly add up to extra money in a month’s time. Below are some of the better panels out there that allow users to sign up at as young as 13. Note some links below are my affiliate links. Read my disclosure here.
- Epoll – Read Review - 13 & up
- My Survey – Read Review - 14 & up
- Survey Savvy – 14 & up
- Mindfield Online – Read Review – 15 & up
- Chooz – 14 – 35
- Springboard America – Read Review – 14 & up
Reward Sites
Reward sites are similar in a way to survey sites because it’s something you can do here and there to build up cash and rewards over time. These sites usually have a mix of different things you can do to earn — search the web, redeem offers, answer surveys, watch videos, and several other things. Most of them also pay in points. The more you participate, the more you can build up. The points can usually be redeemed for not only Paypal cash but also various merchandise and Amazon gift codes. Here is a list of some of the more popular reward sites you can begin using as a teen:
- Swagbucks – 13 & up
- Zoombucks – 13 & up
- Quick Rewards – under 18 must get parent’s permission (this one pays out daily!)
- Cash Crate – under 18 must get parent’s permission
- Irazoo – 13 & up
Jingit
Jingit is a way to earn money watching videos, taking surveys, and also interacting with their various product campaigns. Teens that are at least 13 can sign up for Jingit. Other requirements are that you must have a Facebook account, a mobile phone with text messaging, and live in the US. Payments are made to a Visa debit card weekly. You will have to sign up for the debit card, you can’t send the money to a card you already have.
Enroll
This is a newer online tutoring site that lets you sign up to tutor people in virtually any subject. You do not need to be a professional and you can sign up at as young as 15 years old. So if you are a teen or know a teen that has vast knowledge in a subject that could be taught to others online, this might be a good idea.

Qmee
Qmee is a browser extension that you can install on pretty much any browser (Chrome, Firefox, etc.). Once installed, sometimes Qmee will show sponsored advertisements on the side when you’re searching on any popular search engine. Each advertisement will pay a certain amount (usually a few cents or more). If you visit any of the ads you see when they pop up, you’ll get that cash into your Qmee account. They will pay out instantly to Paypal no matter how much is in your account. Qmee is open to people ages 13 and up in either the US or the UK.
