Paid Website & App Testing: Earn Money Finding Bugs for Companies

Analytical thinkers test websites and apps for businesses and get paid for every issue spotted or piece of feedback provided.

📌 About the model

Paid website and app testing works like crowdsourced feedback. A tester signs up on a platform, goes through an approval process, and then receives offers for testing tasks. During a test, they think aloud, describe problems, and record their screen. Payment arrives for each completed test. The most well-known platform is UserTesting, alongside Respondent.io, Userlytics, and Global App Testing. Earnings depend on the number of available tests, the tester's region, and the quality of their ratings.

Companies build products within closed teams, and their developers gradually stop noticing their own bugs. Real users encounter problems that internal teams overlook — and this gap creates demand for external testers across the UK.

💡 Why it works

📱Growing demand driven by the UK's digital economy

British businesses are launching more apps and websites than ever and need feedback from real users before go-live. Demand for external testers has grown steadily, supported by the UK's thriving tech sector.
