When you’re shopping online, do you look at the reviews left by other customers to determine if you’re getting a good product? Or maybe you like leaving reviews to help future customers.

But reviews aren’t just for other consumers. Companies take your feedback seriously and use customer feedback to improve their products. Some will even pay their customers to leave candid feedback about their products, while others provide free product samples in exchange for reviews.

The truth is that you won’t make a huge amount of money for writing reviews, but it can be a good way to add some extra cash to your wallet.

Note: When getting paid to write reviews, be on the lookout for online scams.  The most common scams are websites that force you to pay a fee before you can view opportunities to get paid. The companies organizing these opportunities should be earning a commission from the companies that provide the products or surveys, so if you find a company asking reviewers to pay a fee, walk away. That is a major red flag that something is not legit.

Here are the best ways to make money writing reviews:

1. WORK FOR AMAZON VINE

If you shop and review items on Amazon frequently, you may end up being invited to join Amazon Vine.

Amazon invites trusted reviewers to write reviews for new or pre-released items on the Amazon marketplace. The goal of Amazon Vine is to ultimately help other consumers make better purchasing decisions.

Vine members receive free products in return for their reviews. To become an Amazon Vine member, you must have a high reviewer rank and be invited.

2. UserTesting

UserTesting connects tech companies to regular people who want to help them test their websites and apps.

Companies will provide you with a link to their site or app and a set of tasks they’d like you to accomplish. An online retailer, for example, might ask you to go through the process of buying a shirt.

To start an assignment, you’ll need a microphone. While you’re going through your tasks, UserTesting will record your screen and anything you say. You should speak your thoughts clearly and out loud so that the people reviewing your recordings can understand your thought process and update the website accordingly.

You’ll be paid $10 through PayPal for every 20-minute recording you complete.

3. Review Stream

At Review Stream, you’re paid based on what other consumers think about your reviews. This means that it pays to be completely candid and to provide as much detail as possible.

You can review almost anything on the site — products, movies, and books are all fair game. If Review Stream accepts your submitted review, you’ll earn a small payment. Once your review is posted, other users can vote on whether the review is helpful or not. You’ll earn ten cents per helpful vote that you receive. You can also earn ten cents for each answer you provide to other consumers’ questions.

Payment is made through PayPal. The minimum balance to cash out varies based on how much you made for the first review you sold in each payment cycle. The minimum will be ten times the value of the first review you sold, with a minimum of $100. So, if your first review sold for $2 or $10, the minimum is $100. If it sold for $16, the minimum is $160.

4. Get Reviewed

Get Reviewed will pay you cash for sponsored blog posts and blog reviews. To get started, you need to be a blogger with a domain authority of 20+ and a self-hosted website.

You will get paid 14 days by PayPal after your article has been completed.

It’s free to join Get Reviewed and can be an excellent way to earn some additional money writing content.

5. YouTube BrandConnect

YouTube BrandConnect is an invite-only service that connects YouTube creators to brands that want to show their products to a wider audience.
