5 tips to earn maximum from StintMint!!

Many have tried and succeeded, simply because it not at all difficult to earn cash rewards using the StintMint app. 

Yet, there are a few tips that will definitely make the process even faster. 

Read on to find out how.

1.       Guidelines

Guidelines are given to improve your chances of acceptance. Every Stint has its own set of guidelines with detailed description about the tasks. Please read the guidelines carefully to understand what is to be done in the stint. Better understanding of the Stints is the surest way to help you earn better money.

2.       Timer

Every Stint expires after few minutes of accepting it. Try to complete & submit the Stints before it expires. Do not worry, the timer is long enough for you to complete all tasks comfortably. Yes, we hate timed tests and exams too!

3.       Understand the options

Multiple options can be a bit confusing sometimes, to avoid the confusion and error, try to understand the options and what is required to select. Wrong selections will get rejected and you time and effort will go to waste.

4.       Check image carefully

Many of the Stints come with set of pictures to help you select the best possible option. Always go through the images carefully and observe the details asked in the tasks. 

5.       Check your answer before submitting

Before submitting any Stint, you should check all your task responses.  You can go through the tasks and check what you have selected to be sure that all is well!!

For all the non-Minters out there!!

StintMint’s impact on people.

You might have come across apps that pays you online for downloading content or app downloads or sharing offers for in return for rewards or some credits or free mobile recharges. You get excited and download the app and we know how that turns out for you. You end up giving bad rating to that app or spread bad words about it because you feel cheated. Thousands of app are available on the store with bogus offerings and you’re searching for that one app with which you can make some money or use your skills to make some money without using cheap tricks. You’re always on the look-out for something other than your jobs, finding ways to make little extra cash. With recent changes and popularity of the concept of freelancing, people are trying to find their way to earn more and more, to fix their secondary source of income. But to freelance, you need two things- Time and Skills.

And not everybody has time or skills to freelance. After realizing you don’t have either of two, you’re back to google play store or any other app store searching for apps in hope of finding something tailor made for you. Now go again to the app store and search for StintMint.

Yes, this is the app which can help you utilize your free time and help you in making good money with some very basic skills. You don’t need any special knowledge or devote fixed hours to earn, all you need is a few minutes whenever you the time and anywhere you are.

“StintMint is a novel and transformational way to utilize your free time. Now earn cash for completing simple tasks at home or on the move. What better way to earn while you are focussed on doing the things you love.” 

-StintMint 

Complete simple tasks and earn instant money and redeem it in your Paytm wallet. Our Minter community has grown to 50,000, with people earning on regular basis and using it to fulfil their basic needs or for other things like, mobile recharges, movie tickets, online food ordering or paying for cab rides or online shopping. Not only this but with money in Paytm wallet, now you can use the money anyway you want. Working on Stintmint will ensure refuelling of your Paytm wallet whenever you want. 

"For delivery boys like us stable earning is quite a challenge, we frequently change our jobs according to market salaries. Stintmint has given us a chance to earn while working on the same job. In 4 days, I have earned more through Stintmint than my own job just by verifying addresses on my delivery routes and in my free time. This way we can earn whenever we want without facing any difficulties."

-Pardeep Kumar 

Pardeep, who is one of our first SuperMinter earned around INR 14,000 while working on his job by just using the app, you will be surprised to know how much his salary was. Any guesses? Umm…

It was INR 11000. Pardeep is still active on the app and earns money whenever he feels like making extra income. Although he now has a higher paying full-time job and cannot really spend as much time on StintMint as he used to. We are very very happy for Pardeep and his family.

“I am always short of money and in order to survive we depend on two or three jobs to make ends meet. I work for a food delivery company and I get pay per order which is not enough to survive. Through StintMint I am able to save time and earn while doing my other job and also the pay is good. I earned close to INR 2,500 in a week doing surveys in my neighbourhood on the StintMint app.” 

-Sanjay Jaliwal

Another semi-skilled worker who was not satisfied with the job he was doing and hence chose to start using the app upon learning how a little work on the app can help him make ends meet.

"It's fun working with StintMint. Doing task is just like playing games. Very easy to select right answer from given options. At times, I earn more than 2,000 a week working part time. Thanks to StintMint family for bringing such an innovative idea to internet users. I am glad to be a part of it."

-Ramit Pundir 

Ramit is a skilled worker from Dehradun, Uttarakhand. Ramit has mostly worked on the StintMint browser app www.stintmint.com/minters.

Minters are earning more and more every day, they are getting better at the work they are doing and in return their earnings are increasing. Earning depends on the time you’re spending with the correctness of the responses that you provide for every task in a Stint.

Avinash Mehra, a graduate from Delhi University currently preparing for his MBA exams, He made INR 2,300 and when we asked him if it was easy and how he earned so much in so less time, this is what he had to say.

“I made this much in my free time mostly during the metro rides to my coaching centre; it usually takes 1.5 hrs from home to MBA classes.  Study breaks were used in making some money.” 

Read about his story here:

Why we are ditching the 9-to-5!!

Working on your own timetable, being your own boss, experiencing different industries, making a impact in high value projects, and the potential to earn big bucks. The world of freelancing brings with it many benefits.

The workplace is always changing shape. Regardless of the industry you work in or the practices you conform to, it’s just inevitable. Over the past few years, the number of people who now don’t work according to a time slot has been growing increasingly. The 9 to 5 job may soon be a relic of the past. A slow climb in a company was once the accepted career path. However, today the experiences of men and women starting their careers are closer to juggling multiple positions than steady growth. Freelancing and self-employment are on the rise.  

Here are few of the influences/encouragement we list down for you to keep your heads straight.

1.    Manage multiple things at once 

People don’t want to limit themselves to one job, one role, one project and one company anymore. They are looking out for multiple opportunities, they want to learn, explore and experiment. For them 9 to 5 is a barrier and only viable option which can help them make an impact is freelancing.

2.    Be creative

No one wants to work in a non-creative environment (9 to 5 Desk jobs). It sucks the energy out and make them lethargic. Creativity in work environment motivates you too think out of the box, work on new stuffs or helps you to try different approaches to the work you do.

3.    Work alone

Few of us can’t work to our full potential when working in a group/team. Taking full responsibility and turning things according to our plan is what we want. We actually want to FLY SOLO. Shifting to freelancing can actually help work according to your set of rules. It keeps you motivated and creatively engaged.

4.    No regular hours

We all hate the regular working hours. Don’t you? Freelancing gives us the option of working anytime from anywhere. Take a workout class, go for a walk, read, make a phone call, or brainstorm for other fun projects while wait for those creative or entrepreneurial juices to flow. You’re free to do anything at any time.

5.    Go daydream

Daydreaming is what we all do but when working 9-5 we are on the clock, sitting idle for even 5 minutes would annoy our team leader/manager. That important thought would be flushed because of some idiot deadline. Freelancing is definitely a perfect option.

6.    Be social

Working 9-5 messes up with your social life, you don’t get time to meet friends over coffee or beer or plan a weekend getaway with your family/friends. It consumes your energy and time and in the end, you just want to hug your bed. Millennials today prefer socializing, networking taking out time for themselves to work on things they really want.

7.    Follow Beyonce’s mantra — I'm Not Bossy. I'm the Boss

Yes, everyone hate their bosses, that’s the truth you can’t deny. Freelancing frees you from working under someone and according to them. Today everyone wants to implement their ideas, theories to the work they are doing, they want to be effective and efficient at the same time. This can be achieved when you’re working on your own and are free to take decisions and projects which suits your style, skills. 

People are seeking work with a greater purpose. Millennials have been pegged as a generation committed to change. 72% of students, as opposed to 53% of workers, consider having “a job where I can make an impact” to be very important or essential to their happiness. They are shifting for a better opportunity where they can manage their work life balance.

Say bye to that 9 to 5 job and find your passion and what you can do best. Go Solo, Fly.

The way to freedom..

The life of a freelancer can sound very romantic, you make your own schedule, be your own boss, and work on many exciting and varied projects. Want to learn something new this week? Great! Need some vacation time? Sure, go ahead on that trip you wanted to go!

For the freelancers themselves, it’s a different story.

For them, their working life is a reason for their happiness and health, a reason to be smiling as opposed to simply facilitating the happy side of life and ‘living for the weekend’.  There’s a reason why people are giving up the 9-to-5 job and its pretty solid. They want to live their lives on their own terms. 

Opportunities for freelancers are increasing thick and fast. In the last five years alone, the average earnings for freelancers have increased by 50%. These factors alone are attracting large number of people to register on websites like Elance , oDesk or Freelancer. Unlike the cubical boxes, these platforms help freelancers decide their own hourly rate and focus on work that really interests them, they have the freedom to work flexibly and have a work/life balance that fits around them.

With the recent start-up trends, the rise of the freelancer has been an unexpected blessing.

With many start-ups taking the help of freelancers to get their work done and offering better pay with due recognition and respect, Freelancers are taking advantage of the demand surge in the industry.

In just under 12 years, millennials will make up 75% of the work force. A report by Millenial Branding found that 45% of Millennials will choose workplace flexibility over pay. “A generational change is occurring,” said Dori Albert, crowdsourcing practice manager at Lionbridge Technologies Inc. She believes crowdsourcing to be a key factor for Millennials seeking employment on their own terms.

The recent shifts, patterns and trends with a good healthy lifestyle and freedom to do what one wants is the reason for growth in the freelancing industry. People are following their passion and dreams while working on the things they love. They are finally getting the freedom they wanted.

You can play that new game on your Xbox One and work at the same time.

Isn't this what we really want?
