Monetizing my life

I realized, every aspect of my life is monetized, almost. I've included my referral codes, if any appeal to you.

I get up and take my phone off the charger. As soon as I turn off the alarm, I collect the GIFTLOOP ( http://app.giftloop.co/r/MRM3MXM ) coins it has spent the night accumulating. I also have to open it past the SMORES (K1B5KA) lock screen, which gets me points as well.

During Morning Quality Time with The Cats, I check into SAMSUNG HEALTH and let it know I am awake and what I will be eating for breakfast. I get my daily bonus at SWEATCOIN (ww1.sweatco.in/hi/nick729179), and collect my overnight treasure chests from KO TRIVIA. I also see how many coins my entry in the Night trivia drawing won me.

After showering and dressing, I turn my computer on to SWAGBUCKS, do the daily poll, and set up a video play list to run during breakfast. I do scratch cards around the edges of all this. My apps are LUCKTASTIC (I can send this one), LUCKY DAY (ICAKJ94), LUCKY WINNER (WRWK391) and LUCKY MONEY. I reviewed them here

During the day, I check KO trivia every 2 hours for my wooden treasure chest. During my break, I play the high end tournaments and finish my scratch cards for the day, making sure to get Lucktastic's Lunchbreak cards. I'll catch the evening ones, with the lotto reveals, after 8 PM. During my break I will als do mystery shopping, update my PATREON, check ETSY for sales and take Swagbucks surveys.

If I have to go to a store, I will have my SHOPKICK (MALL751055) on, and collect points for the walk in. I may scan some items as well for points. And I will watch any new videos they offer. After my purchases are made, I scan my receipt into IBOTTA (mcpiwnp), FETCH REWARDS (BV9VC), RECEIPT PAL (ask for invite) and NCP.

Through all this, Sweatcoin and Samsung health are tracking my walking.

If I need a moment's diversion, I play a game from APP FLAME, APPSTATION, CASH ALARM, PLAYSPOT or COIN POP. Or I enjoy a cat meme on Giftloop.

Then after dinner (duly recorded, along with all the water I drank), I work on Etsy goods, watch some TV and go to bed, all the while my phone is accruing more points.

The scratch card apps, a review and assessment

So, Nicky, have you won the lottery yet with your scratch cards?

Not yet. But I keep at it. I no longer expect instant riches. But I am accruing points that will become real money.

Lucktastic

Average daily earnings: 1100-1200
at 3750 to make $1, it takes 3 days for a buck, but about 10 days to even get on the board here. A month gets you about $10 to Burger King or Dunkin Donuts. $100 is about a year's earnings, just on the cards. There are other ways to earn.

Game play:
A six box scratch card to match 3 symbols, and a bonus box.

They run an ad before and after each card. Most annoying. At least they have mostly pared them to 5-15 seconds instead of the full minute.
This requires a twice daily check in to maximize earnings. Monday-Friday starting at noon central, there are the Lunch Break cards.After 8 PM central are the Late Night cards. (fireworks, sleep over, movie night, etc)

Other ways to earn:
You can earn tokens by downloading apps. This averages about 2000 tokens
Additional Offers get many more tokens, sometimes 10s of thousands. These require you to download an app and complete an action.These are reach level 50 or complete the tutorial and such.
There are also surveys to take.
There are daily weekly and monthly drawings. Some are free to enter, some cost tokens.
Watching videos gets you points

Prizes:
They offer an excellent selection and start very low, comparatively.
However, the cash never gets above $4, nowhere near the $10 redemption point. They pay out within 48 hours

Redemption starts at 10,000 for a year's magazine subscription
Gift cards start at 30,000 for $5, 40K for $10, 98K for $20 and 200K for $50, 375K for $100 (this is only good for Amazon)

The options for cards are:
Amazon
Applebee's
Bass Pro
Bath and Body Works
Burger King
Chili's
Dunkin Donuts
Gamestop
Groupon
JC Penney
Kohls
Lowe's
Nike
Old Navy
Olive Garden
Outback
Panera
Red Robin
Regal Entertainment
Ruby Tuesday
Sephora
Shutterfly
Spa Week
The Children's place
Uber
WalMart

Referral Code: No code. But if I write a review and you start playing from the shared link, I get 1000 tokens.

Lucky Day

Average daily earnings: 95,000

It's a million points to the dollar here. Most of the cards pay less than 4000 points.
So about 11-12 days for $1, about a month to the first reward. About 8-9 months for $25

Game play:  9 box scratch card, match 3, and the bonus is in the same square. Ad about every fourth to sixth card. Some have ads afterward too. Cards go up to $10,000, but I've never won more than $2 on a card.
Cards drop in the morning, at midday and in the evening.

Other Ways to Win:
Lotto: Your basic 5 number keno with a special sixth ball. You can select your own numbers or use quickpick.It's free and draws daily.
Daily reward: 4 days of increasing tokens, and a spin of the wheel of fortune for the 5th day
There are cash drawings every day, as well as weekly and monthly. The first ticket (and a spin of the wheel to multiply it) are free. After that, they cost tokens.
Earning tokens with tasks. Download an app and achieve a certain level with it.
Watching videos also gets you points.

Prizes:
Cash: I've cashed out $17 from them and have another $6 accumulated. It takes $10 to cash out

There are a limited number of each available each day. The item you want may be sold out. you see it and can afford it, grab it.

Payouts can take up to 2 weeks. If it doesn't show up in 2 weeks, complain. (I've had to)

My assessment.

Lucktastic is the fastest. It is however, the slowest to play as the ads slow it WAY down. It has no direct cash option for the tokens.

LuckyMoney accrues the fastest of the limited ad games and seems to be the most generous with actual money. However, cashout is still unknown.  And it has limited payment options. The video failures are annoying.

Lucky Day and Lucktastic have the widest selection of prizes. Lucky Day is the slowest of the four. And they sometimes have to be prompted on payout. They take the longest to deliver. Lucky Day also has the highest priced payouts.



On the whole, I'll keep all four and do them daily.
