The Mode Earn Phone rewards you with points for activities you already do with your phone — listening to music, playing games, watching videos, and more. This article covers all the ways to earn and how to maximize your rewards.
Earning methods
Music Mode
Get paid for playing your favorite music. As long as you have time in your Music Time Bank, you earn points passively. See How to Use the Music Tab in the Mode Earn App.
Game Mode
Earn points while playing games from the Games tab. See Getting Started with Games in the Mode Earn App.
Watch Videos
Rewarded Videos pay points for watching short ads. See Rewarded Videos in the Mode Earn App.
Daily activities
Read news, check weather, and explore other features to earn. See How to Earn Points Using the News Feature.
Tasks and Offers
Download and try games or offers for one-time points. See How to Find, Complete, and Earn Points from Offers.
Surveys
Share your opinion for some of the highest-value point payouts. See Maximize Your Earnings with Surveys.
Finance and crypto offers
Register for financial offers (credit cards, savings accounts, crypto platforms) and get rewarded. These appear in the Offers tab alongside other partner offers.
Lock Screen
Earn points every time you unlock your screen. Enable in Mode Earn App Settings. See How to Use the Lock Screen Feature.
Charge Screen
Earn points while your phone charges. Enable in Mode Earn App Settings.
Note: Charge Screen may slow charging times somewhat since the screen stays active. For fastest charging, disable Charge Screen when you need a quick top-up. To reduce power consumption while earning, enable Night Mode to dim the screen.
See Charge Screen Feature in the Mode Earn App.
Refer a friend
Refer someone who buys a Mode Earn Phone and earn a bonus reward.
For general Mode Earn App referrals (not phone purchases), see How to Earn Rewards by Referring Friends.
Redeem your rewards
Once you have enough points, redeem them for gift cards, PayPal cash, or other rewards. See How to Redeem Your Points in the Mode Earn App.
Tips to maximize earnings
Stack activities
The Mode Earn App is designed so you can stack multiple earning methods at once:
- Music + Charge: play music while charging — two earning methods simultaneously.
- Music + News: read news articles while a station plays in the background.
- Music + Games: keep music running while you play a game.
Keep the app updated
Make sure the Mode Earn App is always on the latest version:
- Open the Google Play Store.
- Search for Mode Earn App.
- Tap Update if available.
Disable apps you don’t use
If you prefer not to use a specific earning app or partner, you can disable it:
- Go to phone Settings → Apps & Notifications → See All Apps.
- Select the app you want to disable.
- Tap Uninstall or Disable.
Engagement matters
Your earnings depend on how actively you use the Mode Earn App. Casual users earn some points; users who actively explore all earning features earn substantially more. There’s no guaranteed minimum — the more engaged you are, the more you earn.
