Earn $1.32 from Jingit today!

by Crystal on October 17, 2012

Have you signed up for Jingit yet? If not, you definitely want to do so, especially if your budget is really tight.

It’s a simple way to earn a little money every day. And while it might not seem like much, every little bit adds up, right?

Did you know that you can re-watch videos on Jingit and get more credit for them? A commentor posted about this and I investigated it and, sure enough, it works.

Once you’ve signed up for Jingit and watched all the videos in your account, you can then come back every day and copy and paste the following links into your browser to earn $1.32 every day.

Earn $0.25 from Snickers (click on lower corner, can be watched once per day)

Earn $0.25 from Snickers (can be watched once per day)

Earn $0.25 from JELL-O Mix Ins (can be watched once per day)

Earn $0.25 from JELL-O 4 Packs (can be watched once per day)

Earn $0.20 from S’Mores (resets every 2 hours)

Yes, $1.32 isn’t much. But these little bits of income add up to a nice side stream of income and gift cards over time. And this small stream of income can be a huge help to a tight budget!

    Too bad you have to have a text messaging plan on your phone to register!

    • The Prudent Homemaker October 18, 2012 at 12:41 pm

      Is this correct? I don’t have a cell phone. Can I still sign up?

  • Lacey October 17, 2012 at 11:26 am

    The link that says “Read all about Jingit here” is not working for me.

    • Crystal October 17, 2012 at 12:05 pm

      Thanks! I fixed that.

  • Sara@Save Money, Live Joyfully October 17, 2012 at 11:39 am

    I got all of these to work today. Thank you so much! I’ve earned $4.25 from Jingit just in the last couple days!

  • Blythe October 17, 2012 at 11:58 am

    Can anyone help. I have tried several times on different days to sign up for Jingit. But after i click sign up a bag pops up and is just gray nothing ever happens. HELP please

    • Erica @ Just Call Me Cheap October 17, 2012 at 09:16 pm

      The same thing happens to me- I’ve tried on my macbook, my windows based computer at work and my ipod touch. I’m so frustrated!

      • joanna October 24, 2012 at 06:16 pm

        the same thing happened to me w/ chrome & internet explorer. however, after i cleared my cookies, cache, & browser history on internet explorer, it worked for me.

  • mindy October 17, 2012 at 12:00 pm

    I earned $8.60 in 4 days without app check in.

  • K October 17, 2012 at 12:04 pm

    Do you have to have a Facebook acct in order to sign up for Jingit?

    • Andi October 17, 2012 at 12:07 pm

      K, yes you do. Also a smart phone & SS#

      • Lee October 17, 2012 at 12:08 pm

        you only need your SSN# if you are going to get the debit card. If you want to buy music you don’t need to provide it.

      • Kayla October 17, 2012 at 09:07 pm

        You don’t need a smartphone. I have a “dumb” phone, and I can still view the videos online. Just can’t take advantage of the ins-store check-ins.

  • Melissa October 17, 2012 at 12:08 pm

    For the past several days, every time I have checked into Jingit it tells me there is nothing more to earn and to check in later. Maybe they didn’t like it that I don’t have a smartphone or that I don’t eat Jello pudding snacks?

    Anybody else not able to watch the videos anymore?

    • Sarah October 17, 2012 at 12:10 pm

      I seem to be having the same problem, but I said I did have a smartphone!

    • Crystal October 17, 2012 at 12:12 pm

      Did you try click on the direct links in the post here? That’s the only way you’re able to view videos more than once.

      • Melissa October 17, 2012 at 01:02 pm

        Oh, thank you! I am not very tech savy.

      • Helen October 17, 2012 at 01:55 pm

        I used the direct links, but it also told me there were no videos available. :(

        • Crystal October 17, 2012 at 01:57 pm

          Try again with a different browser and let me know if it doesn’t work.

  • Lee October 17, 2012 at 12:11 pm

    I only got $.25 for the second snickers ad, but I am not complaining this will help a lot with the holidays coming up! Just waiting for my card to get here!

    • Drew October 17, 2012 at 12:32 pm

      I think she meant two snickers videos at 25 cents each and two jello videos at 25 cents each. Not 100% sure, but I haven’t been seen 50 cent videos.

      • Crystal October 17, 2012 at 01:05 pm

        It looks like the videos are giving different amounts to different people… odd!

  • Missy Ing October 17, 2012 at 12:13 pm

    This is awesome! Thanks so much for the info!

  • Michele October 17, 2012 at 12:14 pm

    This is the 3rd day that I have been unable to log in. I get to the log in screen where it says “preparing your jingit experience” but it never gets past that screen. I was wondering if anyone else was having that experience. I don’t know what to do & I wish I wasn’t missing out!

    • Naomie October 17, 2012 at 01:37 pm

      I’ve been having the same problem since yesterday.

      • Michele October 17, 2012 at 04:26 pm

        Thanks for replying. I’ve been feeling like I’m crazy. I’m not having any problems accessing any other sites, so I don’t think its my computer. But when other people are able to access the site without issue, I was feeling confused!! I guess this still doesn’t solve anything, but it does make me feel better that I’m not the only one! :) (Actually, I even tried using a different computer in our house & had the same problem.) Maybe its my account?

        • Michele October 17, 2012 at 04:36 pm

          I tried this afternoon using firefox as my browser & it worked!! Yeah!

    • Kara S October 17, 2012 at 06:07 pm

      I’ve been having the same problem with the links through Walmart’s site. The links directly to jingit.com play wonderfully. Any video through Walmart.com does not work…? Anyone else having this problem? All I see is the “preparing your jingit experience” loading screen…..

      • MelissaZ October 18, 2012 at 09:34 am

        I’ve gotten that every day this week, no matter how I try to access it :(

        • joanna October 24, 2012 at 06:20 pm

          try a different browser, clearing cookies, cache, & browser history…this worked for me on internet explorer.

  • Emily October 17, 2012 at 12:29 pm

    Thanks so much, I’ve earned $10.44 since last week when you first posted it. Looking forward to my card coming so I can use the money!

  • janel October 17, 2012 at 12:30 pm

    Weird when I click on the links I dont earn as much as it says you should.

  • Laura October 17, 2012 at 12:35 pm

    I cannot get the Snickers ad to play for me. I have tried numerous times and it just keeps downloading! Is this really worth it if you don’t have a smartphone?

    • Julie October 17, 2012 at 12:46 pm

      I’m having fun with this. I’m up to $6 now.

  • Jo October 17, 2012 at 12:46 pm

    Has anyone signed up for their Debit Card yet? I do not feel comfortable giving my SSN out in order to get one and they have no other option for payouts.

    • Jaclyn October 17, 2012 at 12:57 pm

      Same here! Seems odd!

    • Drew October 17, 2012 at 01:59 pm

      I was under the impression it was because we were earning money and somehow would have to be reported on our taxes lol but here’s what they said. Also they do verify if your facebook info matches up with your SS#. My daughter had the wrong birth date on her facebook and they would not approve it until she corrected it.

      Why do I need to provide my Social Security Number?
      We are partnered with U.S. Bank and while they do not do a credit check they do have an approval process that checks name, age, and Social Security number to verify the individual. This helps us minimize fraud and is part of our compliance with U.S. Bank policy for card enrollment. Jingit does not store your Social Security Number or any sensitive banking information. Your Social Security number is provided in a secure manner directly to U.S. Bank, who provides our Jingit Visa Debit Card. Their reputation and reliability is one of the reasons we chose them as a financial partner.

      • Sarah October 19, 2012 at 07:01 am

        I was excited about using this, but I think I may quit after reading your post. I don’t have my full last name on my facebook because I don’t feel the need to connect with everyone I’ve ever ran into. I use a shortened version. I’m more than happy to give jingit, and the bank my info, but I really don’t want or need my full info on facebook. (and I’ve read that facebook will sometimes give you a hard time about changing your name back and forth) This is frustrating. I wish the internet would realize that facebook is not the be all end all of internet information and communication. :-(

  • Kim October 17, 2012 at 12:50 pm

    I watched both Snicker’s ads, answered all the questions on both ads, but no money was added to my total. This happened with the $0.06 music ad the past two days too. I have made $9.94 this week (this is my first week) without referrals & according to what I’ve read, I’ll cap at $10 without referrals. Does anyone know why I’m not receiving credit for some of the ads I’ve watched & answered questions for? Thanks!

    • Drew October 17, 2012 at 01:55 pm

      After those two ads, i had to click on a button in the middle of the page that said something like Pay Now or Add Cash, something like that. The other ads just paid automatically after the survey.

      • Danielle October 17, 2012 at 02:02 pm

        What music ads are you watching for 6 cents? I’m thinking that I’m not earning as much as everyone else because i’m missing ads. I have smores, jello, elmers, snickers.

        • Kim October 17, 2012 at 05:49 pm

          The links seem to reset at different times throughout the week. This is my first week, so I don’t know what will change. Here’s what I’ve been getting. I’m trying all of them every day—different ones may work!

          • Lee October 18, 2012 at 01:07 pm

            Where are you getting all of your current links from?

            • Kim October 18, 2012 at 02:01 pm

              I do not know that they are all current. As I said, this is my first week. One was jingit.com & all the others were from moneysavingmom.com. They do not all work every day, but I try them all every day. I think there were four of the links that did not work this morning. I did find some did not work at 7 AM that worked later in the day–I don’t know what time Jinit reloads the ads. I watched the Snickers ad three times this morning, each from a different link. I’m just doing trial & error. My plan is to keep the links that do not work (in case they get reloaded next week & work) until I know they do not work at least 2 weeks.

      • Kim October 17, 2012 at 05:51 pm

        It worked!! I don’t have my card yet, so hadn’t tried to click the pay button yet. Thanks!!

  • Jessica Claire October 17, 2012 at 12:56 pm

    Hmmm…. I wonder if they give different amounts to different people. I only say that because I only got 25 cents each on the ones that you got 50 cents each for. Not complaining by any means! Free money is free money! Just wondering… Anyone else have this happening??

    • Jaclyn October 17, 2012 at 12:57 pm

      I was wondering the same thing…

  • Jaclyn October 17, 2012 at 12:56 pm

    It will not keep me logged in and I have to wait a long time for the pages to load. I know that this “steady” and “small” income is nice, but some times it does not feel worth it for $10 a week.

  • Karen October 17, 2012 at 01:24 pm

    I have the jingit app but when I click on the above links it keeps pulling me to the app. Once I get to the app it says I have no ads to view. I haven’t been able to view an ad in over a week. Any tips?

    • Crystal October 17, 2012 at 01:29 pm

      I think these only work on a computer, not a mobile device.

  • Jen October 17, 2012 at 01:27 pm

    If anyone is having trouble getting logged in, try a different browser. I was using Firefox and was having trouble, but when I went to the Jingit links using Chrome instead, it worked just fine!

    Hope this helps!

    • Michele October 17, 2012 at 04:28 pm

      I’m going to try this! I will post if it helps!

      • Michele October 17, 2012 at 04:37 pm

        I was able to get in using firefox, but I wasn’t when I used google. Guess that doesn’t make any sense now does it!

  • Alana October 17, 2012 at 01:45 pm

    Did anyone notice that when you click on the info for the debit card and look at the details for the full fee schedule there is a $10 enrollment fee and a fee of $2 per month if your account is inactive for over 90 days? Doesn’t really seem worth it to me…unless I am not reading it correctly?

    • Crystal October 17, 2012 at 01:51 pm

      That’s for signing up for the bank account. If you just sign up for the debit card it’s a flat $2 enrollment fee.

      • Katie October 17, 2012 at 02:29 pm

        It’s a flat $3 fee, not $2.

        • Crystal October 17, 2012 at 02:30 pm

          Whoops! Thanks for that correction! It was $2, but they recently bumped it up to $3.

  • Katie October 17, 2012 at 02:34 pm

    I like that it’s free money and easy to do, but I dislike that it’s giving different amounts for some people as Crystal stated in response to a comment. I just had my husband sign up, and he only earned 1.60 after using all the links Crystal provided plus the beginning ones like the music me and introduction. The Snickers she said for .50 only gave .25 for him and me. I did try to have him do the Billy on the Street one, but it didn’t work for him. I got it last week after I’d first signed up. Oh, and we’re using separate computers–not the same one.

    • Crystal October 17, 2012 at 02:43 pm

      I heard from Freebies 4 Mom that it was giving $0.50, it may have switched to only $0.25 now. However, an ad earlier this week was giving some people $0.25 on the first view and then $0.50 on the second view. So who knows?!

      But, like you said, I’m not going to complain about free money. :) My kids are doing it with me and I’m letting them have part of the earnings as I’m teaching them about simple little things you can do to earn a small bit of income on the side. It’s been a lot of fun for them to see the cha-ching. :)

  • Jennifer D October 17, 2012 at 02:45 pm

    I was only able to do the smore ad three times to day.

  • Shari October 17, 2012 at 03:12 pm

    I am bringing in a decent amount of extra income thanks to your tutorials & tips between Jingit & Swagbucks & Survey Sites – not to mention all of the freebie offers & great deals you post (picked up the Mam Pacifiers today for $1.00 that you had posted about). Thanks for truly helping us all abide by our budgets :)

  • Anna October 17, 2012 at 03:52 pm

    Thanks so much! I couldn’t get two of the links to load and couldn’t find the S’mores one, but I got a little over $1 today. :)

    I was wondering whether you’d mind possibly making a small note next to commercials that are Halloween related. We don’t celebrate Halloween, and I’m guessing some others here don’t and/or have small children they might not want to see the spookier ads. Thanks!

  • Vicky October 17, 2012 at 04:42 pm

    The ‘read all about Jingits’ link says page not found.

  • Bobbie October 17, 2012 at 09:26 pm

    thanks Crystal for posting jingit and the other making money ideas. i think i am going to have to limit my computer timei am having so much fun.

  • Ashley October 17, 2012 at 11:20 pm

    I cant get it to let me do anything ?it says check back later ?

  • Victoria@Snailpacetransformations October 18, 2012 at 04:44 am

    I found out the jingit app. works on i-touch, so you can watch the video’s where ever there is free wii-fii, too bad Walmart doesn’t have free wii-fii, then I could do the check ins too! At first I was not too sold on this program but I am liking it more and more.

  • Allyson @ All Our Days October 18, 2012 at 06:18 am

    I have to log in at the beginning of each video, is that normal? I would think there would be a way to stay logged in…

    • Crystal October 18, 2012 at 08:14 am

      Typically, yes, that’s how it works for me.

  • Melissa October 18, 2012 at 07:53 pm

    I can not seem to get the Earn $0.20 from S’Mores to work?

    • JoAnna October 18, 2012 at 08:28 pm

      Thanks for collecting all these viedos for us! I havent been able to get the smore’s one to work either! :(

  • Anna October 19, 2012 at 12:43 pm

    I was able to watch the Jingit ad from Elmers on the Walmart page this morning with my phone and then this afternoon from the Walmart page. I think it paid 25 cents each time. :)

    • Anna October 19, 2012 at 01:16 pm

      Oops! I meant on my phone on the app and also separately on the Walmart webpage. I haven’t gotten the Cheerio’s one to load yet though.

  • Christina Palmer October 20, 2012 at 12:18 am

    I maxed out at $10.25 this week…thanks:) If anyone would be so kind as to use my referral link I would appreciate it….thanks. https://www.jingit.com/?ref_id=62074%26s=p

    • Lynn October 20, 2012 at 08:18 pm

      I want to join this but I’m a little hesitant because they ask for your social security number.

      • vc October 22, 2012 at 11:53 am

        Lynn, that is what I was worried of earlier, but the bank needs the ssn to get you a debit card. I think that is standard practice when you go to a bank to open an account. So I still opt in and I have earned 1-2 bucks each day! I am able to use my debit card in walmart and hyvee.

  • Margery H. October 22, 2012 at 03:43 pm

    The link “all about Jingit and how it works” does not work.

  • Heather C October 22, 2012 at 08:56 pm

    I’ve found Jingit works better on Chrome for me as well. Firefox was having trouble for me.

  • Sarah M. October 25, 2012 at 06:43 am

    None of the links work for me anymore…either they are expired or I maxed out.

    • Niki H. October 29, 2012 at 08:16 am

      I agree. None of the links work for me anymore either. I was really enjoying the earning opportunities too!
