Foap

The app that helps you make money selling your travel photos is none other than Foap. The beauty with this app is that you don’t need to sell to anyone who will only pay pennies. Rather, you can sell to big brands like Visit Sweden and Heineken, who use your photos for their digital marketing campaigns. The best part is that you can sell the same photo to several buyers, earning $5 each time.

If there are any particular requests from companies, they will be highlighted as “Missions.” If you are lucky and your photo is selected under a mission, you will earn an extra $100.

Roadie

If you are within the United States traveling from one part of the country to another, Roadie is the right app to have. This app helps you earn money by making deliveries along routes you are already going. If you are making local deliveries, you will earn between $8 to $50. For long distances, you can make up to $700. So, what are you waiting for? Grab your phone, download this app, and start earning money.

Airmule

This is the same concept as Roadie, but for plane travel. If you are traveling and, by any chance, you have free space in your suitcase, you can pack extra items that need to be transported overseas. Acting as a mule, you will receive 80% of the sender’s fees. However, keep in mind that you can earn more when you are leaving within 48 hours or if you have to pick-up the luggage yourself.

Further, you can earn up to $15 for quick tasks such as checking displays in stores or picking up items.
