How to earn money testing apps

Five steps from application to first payout.

1

Apply in 5 minutes

Fill in a short form. Tell us your devices, what platforms you use, and your testing experience (none required). We review applications within 48 hours.

2

Complete a device verification

Once accepted, we verify your device(s) by asking you to install a sample app and confirm it runs. This ensures your device is compatible with the types of apps we test.

3

Pick available tests

Tests appear in your tester dashboard. Each test shows the app type, estimated duration (15–60 min), payout amount, and required device/OS. Claim the ones that fit your setup.

4

Install, test, report

Install the app, follow the testing brief, and use our structured report form to document any bugs, crashes, or UX issues. Attach screenshots or recordings where relevant.

What testers say

I earn about $200 a month testing apps after my day job. The reports are straightforward and payouts are always on time.

I have an old Samsung and a Pixel: turns out older devices are in high demand. I get more tests than I can handle.

Zero coding experience. I just use my phone normally and write down what confuses me. That is literally the job.

Tester FAQ

How much can I earn as an app tester?

Most active testers earn between $150 and $500 per month. Testers with multiple devices, fast turnaround, and high-quality reports earn more over time as they get prioritised for higher-paying tests.

Do I need testing or coding experience?

No. We need people who use apps every day: not engineers. If you can clearly describe what went wrong, reproduce a bug, and take a screenshot, you have the skills needed.

What devices do I need?

You need at least one physical smartphone: Android or iPhone. Tablets, older devices, and low-end handsets are actually valuable to us because many developers only test on flagship devices.

How long does each test take?

Quick tests are 15–20 minutes. Standard tests are 30–45 minutes. Deep tests or accessibility reviews may take 60–90 minutes. The test brief tells you the estimated time before you claim a test.

When and how do I get paid?

Payouts are processed within 7 days of your report being reviewed and accepted. We pay via PayPal or bank transfer. No minimum balance required to withdraw.

Can I test apps in a language I don't speak?

Most tests require English-language UI testing. Some tests are specifically looking for testers in certain regions: for example, to test localization in French, German, or Portuguese. These are clearly labelled.

What if I find no bugs?

A clean report is a valid and valuable result. Developers need to know when an app works well too. You are paid for your time and the report, not per bug found.

Can I work as a tester alongside a full-time job?

Yes. Most of our testers do this alongside other work. Tests are available any time, and you choose which ones to accept. There is no minimum monthly commitment.
