Ever heard of those motivational speakers reminding you of how you are wasting a quarter of your life watching movies on TV or Netflix? Well, it’s time for you to monetize your hobby.
I’m not saying those guys are wrong, watching movies should be moderated, but all work & no play makes Jack a dull boy. There are various ways you can make money while watching movies on Netflix.
Now let me remind you that making money online doesn’t come easy as it looks, you will need to put in the work to earn the $$$. When it comes, watching Netflix and getting paid, your brain doesn’t see it as work but a form of entertainment and a source of dopamine.
Let’s go straight to the point, what are the ways to make money from Netflix in 2022.

1.  Start A Movies Review Blog

You can start your blog and review movies on it. You may choose to review movies in only 1 category like action movies or different categories.
Don’t use free stuff when starting your movie review blog or you may end up losing it at the end of the day.
Here’s how to start your blog;

  1. Purchase a domain (.com or .net) at any domain registrar of your choice (don’t use Godaddy!).
  2. Buy a hosting package (shared hosting is affordable and okay for this type of blog)
  3. Learn the basics of WordPress and install WP on your hosting.
  4. Setup your newly created blog.
  5. Add your blog to Google Search Console (to show up on search engines) and Google Analytics (to measure traffic).

So how do you make money from your blog while watching Netflix?

  1. Select a movie or series you want to watch on Netflix.
  2. Watch the movie or series while taking notes of important scenes in the movie(s)
  3. Go to your blog and write an honest review about the movie(s) you just watched.
  4. Make sure to use a good title, featured image and headings.
  5. Publish the review after you are done proofreading the article and making sure everything is perfect.
  6. Promote the article by sharing it on social media platforms like facebook, twitter, reddit, movie forums, etc. Just don’t try to spam or they will kick you out.
  7. Rinse and Repeat!

Now to make cash with your movie review blog;

  • You can use display advertising (companies like adsense, mgid, ezoic, adskeeper, etc will pay for ads on your site)
  • You can sell products for companies and they will give you a share everytime you make a sale
  • You can also sell your own products. For example, you can sell your course, book, etc.
  • You can also add a donation button to your site just like Wikipedia
  • If your blog becomes very popular, you will start receiving business deals from movie companies and cinemas.

The more visitors you get, the more you earn while watching Netflix movies and writing reviews on them.

2. Work as a Netflix Tagger

Netflix pays people to tag movies manually. We both know they can do this automatically but the algorithm can never react 100% as a human would.
The taggers get paid depending on the number of movies they can tag on Netflix in a month. You simply get paid for watching Netflix since you have to watch a Movie before adding the appropriate tags.
Not everyone can become a tagger since Netflix does the hiring. Once in a while, they hire people for this tagging job. You can check the Netflix careers page to see if there are vacancies for Movies tagging.
The last time I checked, Netflix was not hiring taggers. This doesn’t mean you can’t get paid to watch Netflix in 2022. I have a lot of alternatives to this.

3. Get Paid For Watching Netflix By Swagbucks

Ever heard of Swagbucks? Swagbucks is a platform that rewards members for completing tasks, playing games, answering surveys, watching videos, and lots more.
Guess what? On Swagbucks, you can get paid to watch Netflix movies. They have a website and mobile application and the interface is user-friendly.
You can withdraw your earnings in form of gift cards, I am talking of Amazon gift cards, Itune gift cards, etc. They also have an option for you to donate all or part of your earnings to charity.
The thing about Swagbucks is that it’s not for everyone. Your country may not be accepted and you are likely to have a hard time withdrawing your earnings.
You shouldn’t worry about this if you are from the US, Canada, Australia, the UK, New Zealand, Finland, etc.
Secondly, you will have to complete a lot of tasks before earning a substantial amount of money. Unless you are from a third-world country or still a kid, even working at Mcdonald’s restaurant will give you a lot more money than Swagbucks.
I am not saying you shouldn’t use Swagbucks, you can only if it’s worth your time. Make sure you check out other ways to get paid to watch Netflix in this article.

4. Complete Tasks On Inboxdollars

This platform is similar to Swagbucks but more like a better alternative. You also get paid to complete tasks on their website in which watching movies on Netflix is part.
Although Swagbucks is more trusted and legitimate than Inboxdollars, they offer a lot more money and payment options. The payment threshold on Inboxdollars is $30 and they pay every month.
If you want to get paid for watching Netflix on Inboxdollar, create an account on their site and verify your email. Sign in to the account and go to the Movies/Videos section, view the tasks related to watching movies on Netflix, and complete them.
There is a maximum number of tasks you can complete per day, this was made to stop people from gaming the system by completing the tasks using bots or other automated methods.

5. Start A Movie Youtube Channel

This is quite similar to the first way to get paid to watch Netflix, you can make a good amount of money (enough to make you quit your job) on Youtube while doing what makes you happy.
This requires some sort of investment in terms of money (getting a camera, good PC, lightning, tripod, etc) or time (learning video editing and other stuff, doing the editing, and making thumbnails).
Channels like Screen Rant, Beyond The Trailer, ScreenJunkies, CineFix, RedLetterMedia, Chris Stuckmann, etc, are the top guys in this niche on your youtube. You may want to check them out for some sort of inspiration.
So how do you get started with making money off youtube while enjoying your favorite movies on Netflix? Good question!

  1. Create your channel on Youtube, use a good name that is easy to remember.
  2. Setup your newly created channel by adding relevant pictures to your profile and fill in your about section.
  3. Learn basic video editing, how to create thumbnails and Youtube SEO (All of these can be learned for free on Youtube).
  4. Watch a movie on Netflix (Make sure you take note of important scenes in the movie).
  5. Shoot a video of you reviewing the movie (you can use your phone if you don’t have a camera yet).
  6. Edit the video (you may add clips of the scenes you are talking about but make sure you cite the owner in the video description)
  7. Create a good thumbnail that will make people want to click (you can use Canva or photoshop software)
  8. Do the basic optimization and upload your video.

Don’t worry if your first video is really bad, with consistency you will get better at it. You also want to upload regularly so that the Youtube algorithm can favor your channel.
To get paid to watch Netflix via youtube can be done in so many ways. You can apply for Google Adsense once you reach 1000 subscribers and 4000 watch hours in the year of application.
You can also link to your Patreon page in your videos so that your audience can donate some bucks to support your channel. Another way of making a good amount of money is through affiliate marketing.
Making money this way doesn’t happen overnight as it’s not a get-rich-quick scheme. It takes 5 months to a year to get some traction on Youtube depending on the quality of your videos, how often you upload, etc.
Just like the first way to get paid to watch Netflix online, you will need to regularly promote your content if you are just starting.
There are a lot of people making a killing off Youtube, you can get up to $30,000 or more for a million views depending  on your RPM (Revenue Per Mille or 1000 views)
