Online payment has gone global and thankfully, the Philippines is not exempted. In the past years, portals such as GCash, Paymaya, and Coins.ph offer a rebate when users pay their bills or send load using their platform. 10% may seem like a very small amount, but if it adds up, the sum of money can be pretty helpful. You can inform all your family and friends to buy load from you and you get a rebate every time.

Online selling has been around for quite some time and it shows no signs of slowing down. In fact, it has gotten a lot bigger than ever. E-commerce is booming and now, every individual who has something to sell can easily access platforms such as OLX, Shopee, Carousell or even Facebook and Instagram, to sell their used or unused items. Reaching out to strangers to sell stuff has never been easier. You just have to take nice pictures of your items, list the details, assign reasonable prices and post.

We, Filipinos, love the English language. Though universal, not many can understand English and would pay thousands of cash just to learn it. Lucky for us that we eat English for breakfast since we were born, it won’t be too hard for us to share our knowledge. This is how many Filipinos earn extra cash– by teaching English. Most students are from non-English speaking countries like China, South Korea, Japan and Thailand. If you have access to the internet, then you can earn from teaching English in no time.

Another thing that has boomed in the Philippines is blogging and vlogging. Unsurprisingly, you can turn your simple hobbies into money– if you work hard enough. Blogging and vlogging both require passion, knowledge and late nights. It also revolves around marketing your own content to gain more audience. If you make it big, you can eventually land commercials and sponsorship from big companies.
Paid surveys
