Google Play Store credits can be used for games, movies, TV shows, and even books. Here’s how to get free credits!
Right, first things first, this is a guide for everyone, even if you’re sitting there saying “but I have an iPhone, why do I need Google Play Store credit? I hate Android and the people who use it!” The Google Play Store has a wide selection of movies, shows, and books, which you can enjoy on any platform. And you don’t need an Android mobile to use this method for free Google Play Store credit.
Don’t expect to bring in thousands of dollars a month with this, but you can earn enough Google Play Store credit each month to rent movies and buy games. Sound interested? Of course you do, everyone loves free stuff. So let’s get into the method!
How To Get Free Google Play Store Credit
Google has quietly released an app for both iPhone and Android called “Google Opinion Rewards” that pays out for every survey you take, and don’t worry, the surveys are short. In fact, they take about 20 seconds to complete, so we’re talking in terms of seconds here, not even minutes.
The surveys could theoretically be about anything, but as someone who’s been doing them for a while, I can tell you that the vast majority is about your spending habits. A typical example I received today was about how much I would be willing to spend on certain game accessories.
To install and log in, do the following:
- Follow one of these download links for your respective platform:
- Once the app is installed, open it and sign in to a Google account
- You will then be asked for your zip code, your age and your gender
- You will then be prompted to enable location services for the app (not necessary, but we recommend enabling location services so you can receive more surveys*)
- Agree to the terms and conditions and you’re done!
*Many of the surveys are for stores and deals in your area, so you’ll get more to fill out if you let the app know your location.
How much can you earn with the surveys?
Google claims you can earn up to $1 per survey, but I’ve never seen such a high reward, it’s closer to $0.10 per survey. Although, we’re not complaining, they are really really quick to fill out, sometimes as short as three questions.
If you want to earn even more free Google Play credits, you can always sign up on behalf of your loved ones (if they allow you).
How do you get paid for taking surveys?
If you’re using Android, your credit will automatically transfer to the Google Play Store, but if you’re using an iPhone, you’ll be paid directly in hard currency to your PayPal. So it’s oddly better for iPhone users despite being a Google app. However, if you’re using an iPhone, you’ll have to wait until you’ve earned $2 before you can cash out. So you can’t just take one survey and immediately transfer a few cents to your PayPal account, but it won’t be long before you make $2.
How often do you receive surveys?
You receive surveys on average once a week, but you may receive a lot more if you’re in one of the “golden demographics,” or a lot less if you’re in a demographic that typically has less purchasing power. Basically, if you’re a teen (and you admit it in the app), you probably won’t receive as many surveys because fewer companies expect you to be able to buy their products. Conversely, if you are a wealthy middle-aged parent, there are many more companies that want to sell you something.
Why aren’t you receiving surveys?
You may not have allowed the app to know your location, which would exclude you from local surveys, or you could be part of a demographic with less purchasing power. As we mentioned above, certain groups, such as under 18s, do not have as much influence in the market and companies care much less about their spending habits.
It’s part of the app’s terms and conditions that gives you the correct information about yourself, so this next part of the guide is useless. But according to the forums the best chance of receiving the most surveys is by registering as a 45-55 year old female and then taking surveys in such a way that you appear wealthy and educated. This is apparently the demographic that is most valuable to the consumer market. Anyway, none of you would go against the terms and conditions, just interesting to know.
