Updated

It describes itself as a loyalty program for casual mobile games: you play the games listed in the app, collect loyalty coins, and turn those coins into PayPal payments, gift cards, or a donation to a nonprofit.

Whether something like this counts as legit depends on what you expect from it. JustPlay is a real company with a real app on Google Play and the App Store, but its own terms say users are not entitled to a particular reward amount, and no minimum payout figure is published. This page explains what is known, then shows PocketsFull as another free option for earning small rewards online.

What JustPlay is

JustPlay is a mobile game rewards app. Instead of paying for games directly, you play titles featured inside the JustPlay app, and your activity earns loyalty coins.

Those coins get converted into a currency amount during set cash-out periods, and the app listings mention that users can cash out every few hours. The app itself is the main product; the company's website is mostly an information page about the app.

JustPlay's own terms state that users are not entitled to a particular or defined reward amount, even though its app listings and help pages include earnings examples.

Facts checked on

How members earn on JustPlay

  • Playing the mobile games listed in the app, earning coins for completing levels and reaching milestones.
  • Taking part in challenges, quests, daily rewards, tournaments, and special events.
  • Watching rewarded videos inside some games.
  • Completing offerwall missions, which can include playing other games, filling in surveys, or answering questions.
  • Surveys, which are mentioned in the app's Google Play listing.

In short, most of the activity centers on playing the featured games, with surveys and offerwall tasks as extra ways to add coins.

How it pays, and who can join

JustPlay lists PayPal and gift cards as payout options. Amazon gift cards are documented in its help center, and the App Store listing also names Walmart. Users can also choose to donate their converted rewards to one of several nonprofits, including Clean Air Task Force, The Hunger Project, Save the Children, Games for Change, Girls Who Code, and Doctors Without Borders; JustPlay says it matches every dollar donated.

There is no fixed minimum payout published. The terms say there is usually no minimum threshold to redeem rewards, but JustPlay may set one in some cases, such as special promotions. A PayPal cashout asks for your PayPal email, full name, and address, and the help center describes a one-time face verification step for cashouts with no alternative method if the camera does not work.

To join, you need to be at least 18 years old and fully able to enter into contracts. Your account is created when you install the app and is tied to your device's advertising ID, and using more than one account can lead to blocking and loss of coins. The app is free to use, with no subscriptions. JustPlay says it is played worldwide, but it does not publish a list of countries where the app is confirmed to work.

How PocketsFull differs

PocketsFull is an online rewards site where members take paid surveys, complete offers (many of them game and app offers), and redeem their rewards. Joining and using it is free, and there is no deposit or payment required at any point.

Game-related earning on PocketsFull works through game offers listed on the Offers page: you install or open the game and reach the steps the offer lists, rather than earning coins just by playing inside one app. PocketsFull also runs a separate section of free browser games, with no download and no sign-up, but those are for fun only and do not pay rewards.

Not every survey fits every person, so being screened out partway through happens to everyone from time to time. Keeping your profile complete and accurate helps you get matched with more surveys and offers over time.

How PocketsFull pays

PocketsFull lets members redeem rewards for gift cards, with the catalogue depending on the member's country, so you see local brands on your redeem screen.

PayPal and Litecoin are also listed as redeem options. A redeemed gift card is sent to the email address on the member's account.

PocketsFull does not offer other payment apps or wallets beyond what is listed on the redeem screen for your country.

United States

PocketsFull does not pay into these wallets: Cash App, Zelle, Chime
