The idea of getting paid to play video games all day may sound too good to be true. I am not talking about Twitch streamers, YouTube Lets Plays or game reviewing but simply sitting in the comfort of your own home playing the latest games on your PC, console or mobile phone. Welcome to the world of game testing. Below I have outlined a number of companies that you can sign up for today and get paid for testing games.

Game Tester Plus has hundreds of market research firms and game companies eager to connect with video game testers, survey takers and beta testers. If you are looking for working full time, or want to make some extra cash, Gametesterplus.com is a fun way to make money playing games.

Play Test Cloud
For mobile gamers, PlaytestCloud has a wide selection of iOS, Android, or mobile browser games that don’t need any code changes. Their technology safely distributes your build and deactivates it after the playtest. PlaytestCloud will capture the whole gameplay experience, and all you have to do is play and narrate your experience. At $9 for a 15-minute test (or $36 per hour), this is a nice little side hustle that you can earn whilst enjoying a break from another job.

They are looking for gamers who can not only play games but also spot issues such as language issues. (correct all mistakes in spelling or translation) and compatibility testers who can share and report bugs based on their computer specs.
