Breaking Down Reward Apps in 2025

Ladies and gentlemen, Vince here. Today I’m diving into a handful of apps that promise rewards, and I’m sharing exactly how they went for me here in Australia. Some were decent, others were just a waste of time. I’ve played through them, tested the features, and even tried cashing out to see what actually happens. Let’s jump into what I found.

Cash Run: Simple Gameplay, Real Reward?

So first up we have Cash Run. It’s a very straightforward app—you’re just dodging hazards and collecting coins. What you see at the top is your Coinbase currency and your energy system, which recharges during the day. The game’s pretty simple, but the interesting part comes after the level ends. That’s when you’re offered a bonus if you watch an ad. Since it was my first play of the day, I got double points—about 25,500 coins. That’s where the potential reward kicks in. For reference, 48,000 coins got me about 4 cents USD. And yes, I tested the cash out and they did give the reward instantly, at least here in Australia. So while it’s nothing groundbreaking, it did follow through for me.

Make Money App: Still Waiting After 3 Months

Now onto the Make Money app… I genuinely don’t even know where to start. The state of this app just had me shaking my head. I spent so much time on it and I’m still waiting for the reward. You need 3.5 million points for the $5 minimum, which I did reach. I completed offer after offer—Match Collector was one, and I actually hit all the tracked levels. The app showed 3.66 million points in my history. I cashed out three months ago. Nothing. I emailed them back in April—no reply. I sent another one just for this video. It’s honestly frustrating because the games were actually fun. But what’s the point if the reward never shows up?

GReward: Forgotten App With Mixed Results

GReward really surprised me—it’s still around, but I totally forgot it even existed. When I opened it, I had about 1,600 points and remembered they use an offer wall and a Playtime Reward system. You need 3,000 points for the 20 cent cash out, but that one wasn’t available here in Australia. So I went with the $1 minimum for 10,000 points. Survey prices seemed fair—one even offered $1.50, which is great to see. But the offer wall itself? Very underwhelming. A lot of them pay far less than what you'd expect. For example, 490,000 points converts into $50, and most offers don’t even come close. Still, I did get paid instantly to my account when I tested it, so that was a plus. Mixed bag, really.

Play to Win: Surprising Payouts from Spins and Bingo

Now Play to Win actually shocked me. It doesn’t look like an app that would deliver anything, but it did. All you do is spin a machine or play bingo, and you might win coins that convert into PayPal rewards. Ads are everywhere, but that’s clearly how they fund the prizes. I’ve even caught a win on camera before—sadly not this time, but I’ve won around $4 USD from this app overall. You do have to wait 5 to 7 days for the PayPal payout, but at least it came through for me. If you enjoy that spin-and-hope style, this app has content to keep you going.

Which App Was Actually Worth It?

So, which one stood out the most? Honestly, Cash Run and Play to Win both followed through with rewards in my own experience here in Australia. GReward did too, but the rates were a letdown. Make Money? I wouldn’t even bother unless they start responding. At the end of the day, if you're going to be spending time on these apps, you really want to know if there’s something at the end of it. Hopefully this helps you make a better choice than I did with some of them.
