# Real Rush Review: Can You Really Make Money Watching Videos?

## Summary

This Real Rush review tests the app that promises earnings from watching short videos. The reviewer earned $2 quickly via bonuses but found that subsequent earnings slow drastically, requiring hours to reach the $10 payout threshold. The verdict: it's a fun side activity but not an effective money-making method.

### Key Points

- **Initial Earnings** [00:00] — The reviewer earned $2 in about 3 minutes by watching short videos, but this was due to a joining bonus and new-user bonuses.
- **Country Availability** [00:54] — The app is not available in all countries; the only way to check is via the Google Play Store.
- **Earning Mechanism** [01:38] — Main earning method is watching short videos with a counter that adds points. The counter sometimes stops and requires clicking out and back in to resume.
- **Other Earning Methods** [03:38] — Mini-games and news scrolling are also available but often have errors and don't work reliably.
- **Point Value and Payout** [04:37] — 10,000 points = $1, so 1,000 points = $0.10. Payout threshold is 100,000 points ($10) via PayPal (in some countries).
- **Slow Earnings After Bonuses** [05:08] — After the initial bonuses, earning slows dramatically. The reviewer estimates it would take hours to reach $10.
- **Technical Issues** [06:04] — Frequent errors require clicking out and back in to continue earning, making the process annoying.
- **Conclusion** [07:13] — Real Rush can be fun for those who already watch short videos, but it's not an effective way to earn money due to low earnings and high time investment.

### Conclusion

Real Rush offers quick initial earnings but slows to a crawl, making it impractical for serious income. It's best viewed as a fun distraction rather than a money-making tool.

## Transcript

I made $2 in just 3 minutes by watching  short videos on my phone with this app.   No joke. But before you get too excited,  there's also some important details you   need to know. And I've explained it  all in this Real Rush review so you  
not. In case you don't know my name is Mikael.  I have tested hundreds of different ways to  
make money online and recently quite a few  of my followers here have asked me about this   app here called Real Rush. And it is an app that  promised that you can just watch short videos and  
earn some nice extra money on this site and it  has more than a million downloads. So I decided to   actually put it to the test and I will now show  you inside show how I earn, full earning potential,  
some important details you need to know. Also let's  first just talk about who can join because there   is no information about exactly which countries  it's available in. From what I've been able to find   out it's definitely not available in all countries.  So exactly which ones it is available in I am  
honestly not sure because they don't have any  information. The only way to know for sure if it's   for you or not is to go to the Google Play Store  see if it's available and if you can download it   If it's not there then it's not available in your  country. And I would also love to hear from you  
below if you do decide to try it or if you have  already which country are you in, is it available   or not. But before you go and try to download it  please watch this full video because there are   some very very important details you need to be  aware of. So let me now log in and then we'll take  
a closer look at what it really offers. So I have  now logged in and you can see I have more than   $2 in my account and that actually only took me  probably around 3 minutes to get. We'll get back   to the full earning potential a little bit later  because that doesn't necessarily show that it  
will be worth it. But how you earn here there are  all these different ways to earn as you can see.   But the main way they also advertise themselves is by  watching these short videos. So what you would do   is that you will just come here watch short videos.  You can scroll and watch different videos. You can  
see then there is a little counter here. Sometimes  it suddenly stops and then you can scroll but it   doesn't necessarily start moving again there.  What I have found is that then when it stops,   which is a little bit weird, then if I click one  of these other ads there then I go back again  
then it actually starts counting there. So that's a  little bit weird but that's just what I found. And   then you can see then I can click here or it will  just be added there. So then it just starts again   and and that's basically it. You just have to sit  here. You don't have to really pay much attention.  
You just need to once in a while move. If not it  will stop. Sometimes it stops anyways. And then   you just need to click out and look at one of the  other things they're showing and then click back   again. But that's that's the main way to earn here  just by watching these short videos here. And you  
can see then here again it just kind of stopped.  I'll just do like this here. Click there and then   I'm back again and then it continues there. That's  really annoying there but that's just how it is.   When you sign up you will actually you can see  there points were added 13 points there. We'll get  
back to the value of those a little bit later.  But when you first join you will choose which   topics you're interested in and that will  also kind of define what type of videos you   will watch here. So that's just one thing to  be aware of. Also just be aware that once in  
a while, there will be ads popping up here when  you scroll through and once in a while also ads   at other times. So that's just something to be  aware of. But let's talk about a few other ways   to earn here also before we will then talk about  the value for the points here. How fast can you  
really earn because as mentioned I got these  $2 very fast, how you can get paid and all that.   So if you see there are also other ways to  earn these mini games for example and many  
of these here actually didn't really work for  me here now when I was testing it. But you   can see the concept is the same, whether it is  the games or it is the videos or if it's the news.   You can see here you can supposedly also earn by  doing that again here there's not even a counter  
there. But you can scroll through there and then  supposedly also earn by doing that but the concept   is the same for all of them. There's this little  counter there and then there will be ads once in   a while which is why they can actually afford to  pay you. So that's the main ways to earn these  
videos. You have that small counter and then you  will earn. But let's now then talk about the value   of the points you get and how you can get paid.  So as you can see, I now jump to the withdrawal  
section and you can see at least where I'm located  it's PayPal that's a method. I'm not sure if they   offer other options in other countries but  you can see also the value of the points   here. I have 21,000 points there. So that's the  equivalent of $2.1. So that means 10,000 points is  
$1 So 1,000 points would be 10 cents. And you can  see every time that counter went around it gave   me only sometime like 13 points or something like  that. So you have to be very patient to even reach  
a thousand points which will give you 10 cents.  So how did I then manage to get $2 in just 3   minutes? Well the reality is that when you first  come, first of all you get a great joining bonus.  
You get a dollar joining bonus and then also  for new users there are some extra fast earning   bonuses you can get. So the two first dollars were  super fast and that makes you really excited. I  
thought oh this is is you know kind of cool and  interesting. And even when you were watching there   the first few times I watched I earned hundreds  of points. But then now you can see now it   just really slows down. There is none of these  extra huge bonuses. Now I would have to really  
really be patient to even earn 10 cents. And the  payout threshold you see 100,000 points meaning   $10. I'm not sure how long that would take but  it would take a lot of patience. That's for sure.  
And in addition to that, you see that I often had  these errors where I have to click out to come   back in for it to count. The same with these novels  when I tested them. There was a lot of errors there.   That's a thing that that is is really annoying  for me. And of course they have ads you know that's  
how they make money also. But what you need to be  aware of even though you join and you very quickly   get your first $2 then the catch is that after  that you would have to spend hours and hours to  
be able to reach the payout threshold of $10. But  then you can also get paid. So I'm not saying that   you can't get paid. I'm just saying that I'm  definitely not patient enough to even try to   reach it because I've tested hundreds of ways to  make money online. So when I can see something is  
really just not worth it in my opinion. Again this  is my personal opinion. Maybe you love watching   short videos like that. And then why not get paid  a little bit for it instead of just sitting and   scrolling not getting paid for. So maybe your  personal preference is different but from an  
earning perspective, if you're only focusing on  earning, then it's just not as effective as many   other ways in my personal opinion and experience.  So to sum it up Reel Rush can be a fun way to  
earn a bit extra and it definitely looks very  appealing at first because the first $2 they   get into your account very quickly. But you do need  to be realistic. After that it will take a lot of  
patience. If you're doing it mainly for earning, you  will likely be disappointed because it will take   a lot of time to reach a payout threshold. But it  all comes down to your personal preferences and   I would love to actually hear what your thoughts  are below. In general, you will of course not earn  
a lot by watching videos. It's one of the least  effective ways to earn online but I do have a   list of some of my preferred platforms where you  can actually do that. I'll leave a link to that   below so you can go and check that out. And also  if you want some other daily exclusive tips and  
tricks about earning online, I also do have a free  Telegram channel. You're more than welcome to jump   over there and join me there. That would be great  to see you there.
