Testing the Top Reward Apps of 2025

Hey everyone, Vince here. For today’s video, I decided to dive back into a few reward apps to see how they’re performing in 2025 and whether they’re still worth the time and effort. I went in with an open mind and tested them one by one, just to see what’s changed and how each of them feels to use this year.


Meow Sort’s Ad-Heavy Puzzle System

First up was Meow Sort. It’s a puzzle-style matching game that uses a gem-based system and constant ad cycles. When you launch it, you’ll see the timer, the gem balance, and what looks like a PayPal currency at the top. The idea is simple — match the same colors in the same test tubes — but every 30 seconds or so, an ad automatically plays, even if you don’t tap anything. Before spinning the wheel, you have to watch an ad, and even if you skip it, one still plays. After playing for close to an hour, I ended up cashing out the small amount needed to reach the minimum, and while it did arrive, it took about a week. Overall, it’s really not worth the effort in its current state.


MISTPLAY’s Boosted Events and Updated Features

Next up was MISTPLAY. At the top of the screen, you can see your account statistics, units, and limited-time events. They’re always updating these events here in Australia, which is good to see. I had one running where playing a new game for 20 minutes gave me extra units. They also highlight boosted games — and at the time, Toon Blast had an eight-times unit boost, which was the highest I’ve seen so far. The rate you earn units really depends on how long you play, and while the PayPal option isn’t available here anymore, there are still plenty of other payout choices like Amazon and Google Play. Based on my own tests, the payouts still arrive quickly, usually within minutes. MISTPLAY’s games are generally fun to play, and in my experience, it’s still performing well in 2025.


Bingo Cow’s Daily Tasks and Ad Frequency

Then I tried Bingo Cow. Straight away, it felt like another intrusive ad-heavy app. You’ll see your gem-based currency, a timer, and what looks like a PayPal balance on the main screen. Every action seems to trigger an ad — even declining a reward plays one. It’s built around a bingo setup with daily tasks and mini-games, but the ads make it hard to enjoy. I played for around three hours in total, earned a few cents worth of rewards, and while the payout did go through quickly, it really wasn’t worth the amount of time spent watching ads nonstop.


Bucks Plus Playtime Rewards and Payout Options

After that, I tested Bucks Plus. This one has a coin-based system and focuses on playtime rewards. At least in Australia, it offers multiple payout options — PayPal, Amazon, Apple, and Google Play — but each has different minimums. The earning setup works through simple games and regional offers. I played Stack Ball and earned just enough to reach the lowest payout, which did come through within minutes. It’s a straightforward play-to-earn app, but the ad frequency between levels and the low overall reward rate make it more of a curiosity than something long-term.


MoneyTime 2025 Experiment and Final Thoughts

Finally, I ran a quick experiment with MoneyTime. I tested several games — Ball Sort Puzzle, Sword Slash, Bounce and Break, and Solo Solitaire — to see how the rates compare now. Each game has its own earning rate, and something unusual happened this time: my balance updated midway through the timer, which hasn’t happened before. By the end of my test, the balance jumped far higher than expected. Here in Australia, the minimum payout is around $3.20, but the rates seemed stronger than they’ve been in months. I’d say MoneyTime has made some noticeable changes lately, at least in my experience.
