Zapiddy iPhone App: Earn Money While You Shop
What is Zapiddy?
Zapiddy is a free iPhone app that pays users via Paypal to answer shopping-related questions providing an easy and fun way to earn a little money while you shop!
What do Zappers do to earn money with their iPhones?
Most Zapiddy jobs happen in stores. By answering questions about retail conditions such as, “Where did you find the Brand X display?”, Zappers are helping product marketers better understand their marketplace. Sometimes Zappers are asked to snap a photo as well like this Zapper pic above from a Rite Aid drugstore.
Some Zapiddy jobs can even be done at home like this Zapper pic above – this Zapper was responding to a question about breakfast cereals so she provided a simple shot of the cereal she had on-hand at home.
Where and when can I use Zapiddy?
Always check the Find Jobs tab to see what jobs are available near you. Zapiddy jobs can become available in all kinds of stores in big cities as well as in small towns. For example, right now there is Zapping to be done in North Baltimore, OH; Krum, TX; Dexter, GA, and Flatlick, KY.
Keep in mind that there is not always something to Zap and Zapiddy jobs tend to be more plentiful on the weekends. Also, be sure to allow push notifications from Zapiddy so that you can be alerted if Zapping needs to be done in your area.
To get started, head on over here to download Zapiddy for free from the iTunes App Store.
Has anyone tried this app?
I downloaded this app awhile back and every time I check for jobs, there are none. May just be my area.
None in my area either. In Seattle
Actually! I just checked it and they had a job! I just had to take a pic of my makeup products that I have and send it then answer a few questions for $1
I do get jobs once in a while but the store they want me to go is more than 25 mins away.
It’s not a bad app, but you need to make sure that the place you do the job in has free wifi. Otherwise, it is tough to complete the job because it’s often deep inside the store where cellular internet is lost. For this reason, I focus on Target jobs because they have free wifi.
This app is great. Love to use it. The new jobs come out after midnight. Mostly on Friday and Saturday. Sometimes there are jobs during the week but not all the time. First come first serve on the jobs. You have to put in your location to get jobs near your home. If you see a job grab it. If you can’t do it cancel from your job list. I love zapping.
How much do most jobs pay? Do they send a check?
Hi Jamie! Most jobs pay from $2 to $10 via PayPal.
I just tried signing up but it says that any jobs that I completed, the payment will go to a charity. Is that right?
Hi Michelle. The money you earn is yours. Zapiddy donates additional share of their revenue to the hospital you choose when you register.
So if I select a job it is mine and I don’t have to race someone to a store and be the first?
That has happened to me before. I’m not quite sure why it disappears from my job list. I always double check before going to the store.
Zapiddy jobs are first-come-first-serve. Good idea to refresh your FIND JOBS screen to be sure the opportunity is still available.
I like this app. I’ve made about 30 dollars in the last year.
