One easy way to earn extra cash that many people love is by joining a site that will allow you to earn simply by watching videos.
To earn from watching videos, you have to register as a member of a site that offers this kind of earning opportunity.
Fortunately, there are plenty of sites that do. But the problem is that, since there are many options to choose from, it can be quite hard to figure out which sites to join.
And many scams will claim you can earn by watching videos, but in reality, you might end up losing money and time by joining.
This guide will help you find the best sites to join to earn money online by watching videos. I will list 16 of the best and legit sites where you can earn rewards completely for free.
I have used and been paid by all of them myself, so I know they do work.

How can you earn by watching videos online?
Sites where you can get paid to watch videos are often known as Get-Paid-To (GPT) sites.
As you can probably tell from the name, you get paid to do tasks to earn rewards (including watching videos). These tasks are often found in the offerwalls that are featured by these GPT sites. Some GPT sites have a Watch Videos section, but most of the time, they can be found in the offerwalls.
But in this guide, we'll focus on how you can earn by watching videos from these platforms. There will be options both for computers and for phones, so if you prefer video-watching apps, you can also find these on the list below.
The videos you will have to watch will cover more or less any topic, so they can be entertaining.
In between the videos, there will sometimes be ads you have to watch (this is the reason the platforms can afford to pay you to watch). Other times, the videos you will get paid to watch are ads themselves.
The actual process of earning from watching videos is pretty easy. There can be some slight differences depending on the platform you use, but in general, you will be able to find and use the video earning option very easily after joining your chosen sites.
Most of the sites will ask you to stay on the video page to earn rewards, but some don't. As you can probably tell, the more beneficial kinds are the ones that won't require you to stay on the page because they will allow you to do something else, like do other tasks to earn more rewards.
Nevertheless, this is probably the easiest earning opportunity you will encounter on GPT sites.
How much can you earn?
When joining a site that offers this type of opportunity, it is important to temper your expectations.
Let me just say right away that the earning potential for watching videos is not very high. This type of offer typically doesn't pay you much because it doesn't require any effort on your end.
You will encounter some sites that claim you can earn hundreds of dollars per day by watching videos, but these are scams and will usually charge you a membership fee that you will end up losing.
In other cases, they will just waste a lot of your time, and when it comes to cashing out, they will suddenly ask for a fee but not pay you anyway.
So, stay away from any site that claims you can make a living watching videos online.
I know it would be awesome to be able to do that, and I get questions about this more or less every day here on my website or on my YouTube channel, but it is just not realistic to make that much from watching videos, and that is very important to remember.
However, if you make sure to join the legit sites (as the ones on the list below), you can earn when you are not even at your computer on some of the platforms, as the videos can just run when you are not watching (this is only for some of the platforms).
Another good thing is that this is usually not the only way you can earn from a site that offers this type of earning opportunity. As mentioned, GPT sites often have other ways for you to earn extra cash.
So, if you do those other tasks and boost your earnings with what you will earn from watching videos, you stand to earn a decent amount in the long run.
Watching videos should, however, not be your primary method of earning online, but it can serve as a decent supplement.
Also, it is recommended to join around 6-8 GPT sites that offer this type of earning opportunity so you can earn as much as you can without becoming too overwhelmed by what you have to do.
Since all these sites are free to join, membership fees won't be an issue. It will just boil down to how much time you want to spend on these sites.

Dear Mickael;
I have been working hard for over two weeks and a half watching your videos, reading your reviews and in general getting to know your fantastic website which has been beautifully conceived and neatly put to work.
(Thanks God you don’t have pop-up ads! Are they mad? Don’t they realize they are harassing the visitors to their website?)
Your videos refer me to your website where I have all the information I need plus lots of other links for me to check out in case I am interested in a related matter. The quality job you are doing has led me to the following decision: to give a like to whatever video of yours I watch, even if in the end I don’t find the information I’m looking for. You deserve it for the great job you are doing in informing us all of the existence of scam videos and websites and offering clear, precise and not missleading information about the matters you deal with.
Now to my point: after all this time watching and analyzing all the data you have provided me with, I have reached the following conclusion: I wish I could do surveys but ended up deciding on watching videos instead, because my personal circumstances don’t allow me to spend time doing surveys, even knowing that they pay a little bit better than watching videos. My real situation is that I work as an attendant in a bakery where I don’t get many customers but they do come all morning long, haphazardly though. And if I were doing surveys, I would have to drop them to take care of the customers. So I concluded that the only opportunity for me to make money on the GPT sites is by watching videos because videos can be left running unattended for a short while, in case I have to take care of business.
I have in mind to spend three hours watching videos in the morning plus three more hours in the evening. Would you have a guess as to how much money I could make this way, taking into account that I live in a second-tier country?
Thank you so very much for your help and your time.
First of all, very happy to hear you like my content and I appreciate your support.
As for how much you can earn by doing videos like this, it is more or less impossible to give an exact answer for. But I can say that it will be very little you can earn that way. With your setup, I would, for example, suggest you check out this list of the best passive income apps.
