Pirate Coinland Mini Review
| Note: Links may award me referral rewards such as in-app points or money. |
Pirate Coinland is an Android app which pays you for downloading and playing games.
In the past I’ve reviewed Fitplay, Cash Alarm and App Flame and I can confirm that this is once again the same app with different branding.
If you’ve used any of the above apps then you know what to expect. If you’ve never used one of them and would like to find out more is recommend reading my review of App Flame as basically all the information remains valid :-).

Sushi Team Challenge Signup now live on Swagbucks
If you’re unfamiliar with Swagbucks, I discuss it in much more detail in my blog article.
The Swagbucks Sushi team challenge is now available for signup and will begin on 15th July at 12 AM PT (8 AM for anyone in the UK).
Once signed up here, you will be allocated to a team and you can begin earning points. If you earn 600 or more points over the course of the event you’ll receive a reward, with the reward you receive depending on how well your team as a whole performed. The Swagbucks team describe it as follows:
All members who participate and contribute at least 600 points to their team’s total will receive a SB bonus in the form of a SB Swag Up Rebate! Members of the 1st place team will receive a 100 SB Swag Up Rebate, members of the 2nd place team will receive a 50 SB Swag Up Rebate, members of the 3rd place team will receive a 25 SB Swag Up Rebate, and members of the 4th place team will receive a 10 SB Swag Up Rebate. The Swag Up Rebate will be made available by July 20th at 4PM BST and expires on July 30th at 7:59AM BST.
You can accrue points in the following ways:
Treasure Trooper Tip #1 : Free Dragon!
If you’re unfamiliar with Treasure Trooper, I discuss it in much more detail in my blog article.
Every Friday night is Fight Night on Treasure Trooper where users can battle their dragons against one another via the site chat.
If you don’t already have a dragon or dragon egg it’s still very worthwhile logging into the chat function during Fight Night as you can claim your very own fully grown dragon for free!
To do this, enter the chat and type “egg me”.
Note: Eggs obtained this way have been “stepped on” meaning that the resulting dragon is “deformed”. Deformed dragons cannot be sold and can only participate in Level 1 dragon fights unless you pay 35 dragon scales to “de-deform” your dragon. The dragon still cannot be sold even after de-deforming.
Further information about dragon fighting can be found here.
Here’s the one I got:
This process and more details about fight night itself are discussed on the Treasure Trooper forums here.
Treasure Trooper
Summary
| Note: Links may award me referral rewards such as in-app points or money. |
Treasure Trooper is a money making site in a similar vein to Swagbucks but with a stronger emphasis on colourful design, games and social elements. Although I’m not sure that Treasure Trooper is the fastest or best way of making extra money it does have a charm which is largely missing from the other sites I’ve tried so I think it’s worth giving it a shot to see if it works for you.
It’s also worth pointing out that if you sign up via my referral link you’ll receive a $5 starting bonus rather than the $1 you receive if you sign up normally. Treasure Trooper also have a blogger program; so if you have a blog and you’d like to discuss the site you can sign up here.

Swagbucks Tip #8 : Member Recognition Program
If you’re unfamiliar with Swagbucks, I discuss it in much more detail in my blog article.
Swagbucks recently introduced a member recognition program which rewards you for reaching certain milestones. At the time of writing I’m on the Amethyst level and approaching Jade.
The rewards are mainly centred around SB rebates and bonus SBs but also offer shopping bonuses and Swag ups such as double points on your next survey completion.
The announcement post containing the complete rundown of levels can be found here.
Mistplay major update
Mistplay has recently released a major update to its service.
Note: At the time of writing this hasn’t been rolled out to all users so you may not see the changes for a little while.
In addition to the features mentioned in my review the app now supports daily play streaks, contests, a dedicated tab for game badges (achievements) and a “bonus” page.
Sweatcoin
Summary
| Note: Links may award me referral rewards such as in-app points or money. |
Sweatcoin is an iPhone and Android app which pays you in tokens to walk. These tokens can be exchanged for prizes which vary over time. Interestingly the Sweatcoin team plan to transform their currency into a real tradeable cryptocurrency which would be interesting if/when that happens.
Be warned that the Sweatcoin app is a potential battery drain but the effects seem to vary from phone to phone.

New round of Swago available + Spin and Win!
This round of Swago has a 300 SB maximum bonus and includes the popular “Spin and Win”. Spins are earned by completing squares on the Swago board. If you manage to complete the entire board you’ll earn 50 spins!
There are often “rebates” offered where you get a certain number of Swagbucks back when redeeming a gift card. There are also huge SB bonuses as well as a number of smaller (but still worthwhile) options.
See Swagbucks Tip #1 for my discussion of why it’s worthwhile to stockpile some SBs for event like this.
The wheel below is taken from a previous “Spin and win” and may not represent what’s available this time around.
