Scrambly.io
I started using Scrambly.io six months ago to earn some extra cash and keep myself occupied with something productive. It's a good alternative to gambling, which can quickly drain your wallet. Here's a breakdown of how it works:
Mobile Games
Similar to most offer walls, Scrambly offers rewards for playing mobile games. Sign up, verify your ID, and browse the game selection with their corresponding rewards. Games typically start with a small reward (around $0.01) for just downloading and opening the app. Rewards can progress much higher, with my highest achievement being $50 for completing specific tasks within the game. While the initial rewards might seem low, reaching the higher tiers can be quite lucrative. Once you choose a game, you'll play and earn rewards for reaching specific checkpoints.
Scrambly offers multiple payout options through Tremendous, including Visa, Amazon, PayPal, Google Play, Apple, Spotify, and Walmart gift cards. In my experience, cashouts are usually quick unless they require a security check, which can take a couple of days. I've only encountered this once.
Other Ways to Earn
Scrambly also offers non-game-related tasks like signing up for financial and entertainment apps. For example, I received $12 for placing an order with Uber Eats (with no minimum order requirement!). While the platform has other offers, many require first-time registration, which I've already completed through other rewards programs.
Surveys
At the time of writing, the survey section is under maintenance. However, I've completed a few surveys in the past to reach my desired cashout amount. They seem similar to most survey programs you'd find on other reward sites.
The Scrambly social media pages occasionally offer bonus codes for extra cash, but these are typically only around $1 each.
Earning Rewards for Games
As mentioned earlier, you play games and reach checkpoints to earn pre-determined rewards. Most games are free-to-play with in-app purchases to progress faster. Some games even offer a portion of your spending back as a reward, and in rare cases, you might even earn more than you spend. I usually stick to the free-to-play options unless there's a clear payout benefit to spending.
While not all rewards are achievable without spending, I've completed games and earned all the rewards within the allotted timeframe without spending a dime (excluding the rewards that specifically require spending). For example, AFK Arena offered a total payout of around $150.
Important Note: When starting a game, pay close attention to the time limit for completing tasks. Most games give you two to three months to play before the offer expires.

Customer Support
Scrambly's customer support is responsive and helpful in my experience. They'll do their best to resolve any issues you encounter. However, their response times can be slow. Patience is key!
Pros:
Quick Cashouts (usually within minutes)
High Paying Rewards (potential to earn up to $50+ for challenging tasks)
Game Availability (decent list of games with new additions regularly)
Cons:
Limited Cashout Amounts (through Tremendous, limited to $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, and $50) with varying fees:
PayPal: $0.25 fee for $1, $2, and $5 payouts (larger payouts come with a bonus instead of a fee)
Visa: 2% fee on top of any amount
Other options (Spotify, Walmart, Apple, Google Play): No fees, but higher minimum cashout limits.
Untracked Progress: Occasionally, games might not record your progress, resulting in missing rewards. Customer support usually offers half the expected reward in these cases. For paid tasks, they've given me full credit. They also claim to credit the remaining amount if they receive verification from the game provider.
Overall Opinion:
Scrambly.io is a good platform to earn some extra cash in your free time. They demonstrably pay out, as evidenced by the screenshots I've attached (not shown here). While the slow customer support response times and occasional issues with untracked progress bring it down slightly, I'd rate Scrambly.io an 8.5 out of 10.
