I Tried MoneyWell for 5 Days — Did I Get Paid or Played?

 

🎮 What is MoneyWell?

 

 

MoneyWell is one of those “make money online by playing games” apps. It shows you a list of sponsored games — and the more you play, the more coins you earn. These coins are supposed to be redeemable for real cash via PayPal, Amazon gift cards, and more.

 

Sounds like an easy way to earn money while relaxing, right?

 

I thought the same.

 

 

 

 

⏳ Day 1: Super Fast Earnings

 

 

On the first day, everything looked promising.

 

  • I downloaded two simple games.
  • Played one of them for 15 minutes.
  • BOOM — I earned 4,000 coins right away.

 

 

At this rate, I thought I could reach the $5 PayPal payout (45,000 coins) in less than a week. The app kept suggesting more games, and the rewards seemed fair at first.

 

 

 

 

😐 Day 2–3: Slowing Down

 

 

By Day 2, I noticed something strange.

 

  • The coin rate started to drop.
  • I played a game for 30 minutes — and only got 1,200 coins.
  • Repeated games gave fewer rewards.
  • New games? Some weren’t available in my region.

 

 

The “fun” started to feel like grinding — playing boring levels just to squeeze a few more coins out.

 

 

 

 

😤 Day 4: The Frustration Begins

 

 

This is when I realized what most real paying apps do — they hook you in, then slow down the earnings to make you give up or watch more ads.

 

  • Ads between every click
  • Coin drops became tiny: 300 coins for 25 minutes
  • No bonus for logging in
  • And every payout option felt just out of reach

 

 

I had about 32,000 coins at this point — still not enough to cash out.

 

 

 

 

💸 Day 5: Finally Cashed Out… Kind of

 

 

I grinded more on Day 5. Eventually, I reached 45,000 coins and requested a $5 PayPal payment.

 

Guess what?

 

  • The payout status said “Processing — up to 7 business days”
  • After a week: still nothing
  • Two weeks later: payment finally arrived

 

 

So yes — MoneyWell does pay, but:

 

  • It’s extremely slow
  • You get paid once, then it gets harder
  • And the amount? Honestly, not worth the hours

 

 

 

 

 

📉 The Truth: Is It Worth It?

 

 

If you enjoy mobile games and don’t mind waiting weeks to earn a few dollars, MoneyWell might be okay. But if you’re looking for real side income, it’s not it.

 

Time spent vs money earned = terrible deal

 

There are better money making apps and websites that respect your time more. MoneyWell just stretches the process to keep you watching ads and feeling like you’re close to cashing out.

 

 

 

 

⚖️ Pros & Cons

 

 

✅ Pros:

 

  • Does actually pay (eventually)
  • Simple to use
  • Lots of game options

 

 

❌ Cons:

 

  • Earnings slow down hard after Day 1
  • Takes forever to reach minimum payout
  • Payouts take weeks to arrive
  • Ads, ads, ads…

 

 

 

 

 

📌 Final Verdict

 

 

Did I get paid? Yes.

Did I get played? Also yes.

 

Apps like MoneyWell know how to hook users and delay rewards. If you’re serious about earning money online, skip this one — or use it very casually.
