15. Get Paid Directly To Play

You’re probably thinking “isn’t this just the same as being a games tester?” But the answer is “no”.

Rather than actually being employed as a generic tester, there are actually sites that will pay regular gamers to play their games. The other difference is that you won’t be paid in cash upfront – you’ll probably receive some form of electronic or cryptocurrency (such as tokens that then you can turn in to gift cards or prepay cards, such as with Banatic, Swagbucks and InboxDollars).

You’ll need to play the game and review it, but it’s well worth it.
