Iphone Apps That Pay You

Iphone apps that pay
The iPhone, for many of us, has become as indispensable as the microwave. It's our handy dandy phone, tip calculator, restaurant finder, newspaper, sports center, flashlight, and social media mobile mecca. But did you know you could make some money and get free stuff just by doing things you are already doing with your iPhone?
Well I'm here to tell you that you can and I already have. Read on my friend and find out which iPhone apps can pay you back. Or at least get you some free stuff. And who doesn't like money or free stuff?
WeReward
WeReward pays you to check into businesses or to complete challenges set forth by the app. Most of the check-ins require you to take a picture of the business but some require you to take a picture of yourself inside the business. The challenges range from taking a picture of yourself with merchandise to drawing a picture of logos. They are all fun and easy to do. Check it out!
shopkick
This app takes walking into stores and checking in, to a whole new level. Shopkick actually allows you to just walk into certain stores, click on the app, and it check you in automatically! Cool right?
You can also earn kickbucks by checking into stores that don't have the automatic check-in. For these stores you'll just have to go one extra step and choose it from a list of the closest stores to you. Still easy but just not as cool. And in some stores you can scan barcodes of certain items to get more kickbucks.
You can then turn kickbucks into free gift certificates to places such as Best Buy, Restaurants.com, American Eagle Outfitters, Sports Authority, and iTunes. Not to mention get free facebook credits.
shopkick.com - Enter code "hamster105" for 50 free kickbucks!
CheckPoints
"The App That Pays You Back"
Oddly enough that exactly what it does. It works much like Shopkick in that you go into stores, check in through the app, and you get points that can turned into gift cards and other prizes. You can also scan additional products in certain stores to get more points.
Simple and easy.
CheckPoints - Please use bonus code "kidgrifter" for extra points when you sign up!
Field Agent App
Get paid to complete tasks. Basicly you get to work from wherever you are.
Load up the Field Agent app and it will locate where you are and give you a list of available jobs near you. Most jobs involve walking into stores and completing a task. Finish the job and get paid.
The cheapest job I have seen was for $4.00. Not bad.
Seed
Brought to by the great people at AOL.com the SEED allows you to Create, be heard, and get paid.
Seed pays you to write and submit breaking news pictures. If you like to do either one of those then this app is for you. And they can pay you quite well if you photo or article is chosen. From as low as $5.00 to as high as $60.00. So what are you waiting for? Go download it!
Pepsi Loot
Check into places that sell Pepsi products (Ex. Taco Bell or Pizza Hut) and you can get codes to download free music.And you can enter these songs into iTunes and your iPod.
Who doesn't like free?
OpenTable
The free OpenTable app allows you to make reservations at restaurants. When you honor your reservations, you'll receive points that you can turn into "OpenTable Restaurant Cheque's". Its simple to use, is a great useful tool, and you get rewarded for doing somthing you already do: eat.
Gigwalk
This app pays you to use the camera on your phone to complete "gigs". Depending on where you live you may be taking pictures stop signs, verifying something is there, or retail jobs. All are pretty easy and the gigs pay well. It's definitely worth downloading and using.
BTW - pays through paypal

Have you tried iJob? is a simple market research app which pays anything from 50 cents to a few dollars (or equivalent in local currency) for answering a few questions, or doing a particular task. Straight to your paypal account.
I could only find one on the app store - field agent - does anyone know why this is?
There is also Surveys on the go and surveys wipe . I just signed for them so I cannot say if it's good or not. Surveys on go pays through PayPal and the other one will give you amazon gift card
