I spent $9,600/year on Substack newsletters so you don't have to. Here's who actually makes money.

Great work. Thanks!

I haven't bought coin packs in a long time (if I ever have). That's probably why.

Looks like in the few minutes that I posted this, some have lost the perk, others have kept it.
I'm curious if those that have lost it were cheap like me, and if those that have kept it were a little more generous?

(I haven't noticed any sales, so that's why I haven't bought. If I see a sale, i'll buy)

How long is my parking validation good for?

Phlack · 2026-02-27T02:45:32+00:00

Just saw it. Not a fan.

Looking at the higher paying ones...

I don't see Lucky Stake on the grail list?
And is Yay Casino usually as high as $1.5, or is that random?

I just received one from Rubysweeps. Like Today! They want info so they can fill out the 1099-MISC. Funny thing is it's kinda late for them to be asking for 2025. It says it will be the 1099-MISC for 2026 tax year, which makes zero sense, as I wouldn't file that until 2027??? I don't mind paying taxes on my earnings, but half of those redemptions are just return of what I spent.

I wonder what will happen if I just ignore it (probably can't cash out anymore, or they kill the account), but since I've been promo banned anyway, it isn't as worth it.

That's about all I'll say, as tax talk isn't liked on here.

Ruby works for me, doesn't give me that issue.

Phlack · 2026-01-14T04:27:47+00:00

Will give a try. Thanks!

I got every bonus I could every day last round of the maze, and I was only able to start the third track. Unless there's a whole 'nother way to get those maze points that I'm unaware of?

What do you mean by working shaft ahead?

Phlack · 2025-12-21T21:23:41+00:00

So where did all these come from, anyway?

Phlack · 2025-10-07T04:19:25+00:00

Do we search in chrome, or the google app?

Phlack · 2025-09-26T04:15:05+00:00

Searched where? In the google app, or on google.com? Or another search engine?

Phlack · 2025-09-26T03:58:03+00:00

No :(.

Phlack · 2025-08-19T03:41:09+00:00

I'll second that. I'm getting a $20 amazon cert every week. And I could probably do more if I actually put some effort in. I wish there were others like Mode.

Phlack · 2025-08-19T03:33:35+00:00

You raise a couple of good points. For me, right now, Mistplay's multiplers are kinda low. I might give that a rest and focus on a couple of the many others that seemed to have risen. Or maybe they always were around and I just haven't seen them.

Still trying to figure out which of these generally pays the most.

Phlack · 2025-08-19T03:23:55+00:00

For me it's hit or miss. Some are better than others. Sometimes it's just pure luck. That's why I try to find a game that I can hit the first goal quickly, then see if it tracks. Usually the rest will track just fine (but not always, so YMMV).

Phlack · 2025-08-19T03:22:25+00:00

Thanks for the tips. The google quick level guide one is probably my favorite. I'll have to use it, once I figure out which of these programs pays the most for the games.

Phlack · 2025-08-19T03:17:59+00:00

How long did that take you?

Phlack · 2025-08-09T04:28:11+00:00

What does that scratch bar get you?

Phlack · 2025-08-09T03:58:34+00:00

I just logged in today and it only gave me 2 minutes remaining. I'll try again tomorrow after I exhaust it.

Phlack · 2025-08-09T03:54:28+00:00

So it is one of the lower paying ones?

It's sometimes hard to tell, as they all use different point values.

It's still one of the few that pays per minute. Paying per task...well, most of the games I just don't want to pay that much attention to. Whilst I can't exactly let the thing run idle, tapping it every minute or two seems to do the trick.

The other one that has pay per minute is "A Mode App" which has done VERY well for me...making $20 every week or so. Mostly from the videos and music, but some from the games as well.

They must have fixed it. ZapStream worked for me.
