19F incoming 2nd-year student looking for legit, low-exhaustion online side hustles (and GPT tips!) during summer break

🧠 Advice/Support

​

Hey everyone! (●’◡’●)ノ

I'm a 19-year-old female and an incoming 2nd-year college student here in the Philippines. We are currently on a one-month summer vacation, and I'm looking for a legitimate side hustle to earn some extra money for upcoming school activities.

I’ve tried looking for earning apps on Facebook, but most of them are just referral-based or require massive "acceleration" schemes. I don't really know how to navigate those, and I'm also quite introverted. However, I tried GrabPoints yesterday and managed to earn $3, which was really nice!

Here is my situation:

Strict Parents: Even though I'm an adult, I can't do outside part-time jobs because my mom is pretty strict.

Health/Energy Limits: I can't take on heavy physical labor or tasks that are too exhausting because my body can't handle it.

Equipment: I have a laptop/internet connection.

I am very willing to try your suggestions! If you have any tips, tricks, or specific strategies for GPT (Get-Paid-To) websites, please share them!

P.S. My circle of friends ( ͡❛ ₃ ͡❛) are in a similar situation. They have skills, but unfortunately, they don't have laptops or proper gear—just their smartphones. If you have any mobile-friendly alternatives that work well on phones, that would be a huge help for them too!
