[00:00] Most people pay $5 to $7 every time they walk  into Starbucks. But what if you could cover   those coffees with gift cards without  spending any money at all? In this video,   I'm going to show you nine different ways you  can earn Starbucks gift cards completely for  

[00:14] free. It's not going to be any weird hacks  and I'm not going to make any unrealistic   promises. These are real platforms that I have  personally tested so I know they actually work.   In case you don't know, my name is Mikael and if  you watch my channel before, you know that I have  

[00:29] tested hundreds of different ways to earn online  over the past many years. But in this video here,   I put together nine legit platforms where  you can earn Starbucks gift cards 100% free.   and who each option is best for. Now, let me  just be clear right away. None of these will  

[00:49] make you rich. But if you're already spending  money at Starbucks, this can be a simple way   to cover some or in some cases maybe all of  it with money you earn in your spare time.   So before going over the methods I want to show  you, let's just talk about the earning potential  

[01:05] so you know exactly what to expect. As I just  mentioned, none of these methods are a way to   become rich. It's not a way to make a full-time  income or anything like that. It's completely   free methods where you could do small online  tasks. Whenever you have a bit of extra time,  

[01:19] you can get started right away. And then the  platforms that I will show you here, offer to   pay out in Starbucks gift cards. So, it can help  you cover whatever you spend at Starbucks. So,   it's great methods for some extra money on the  side, but that's how you should see it. So,  

[01:33] you do it with the right expectations. Also, be  aware that even though some of these platforms are   available in basically all countries, the exact  rewards can vary from country to country. So,   in some countries, some of these platforms might  not offer Starbucks gift cards. But if that's the  

[01:49] case, then they offer other payout options that  are then relevant in many cases also cash. So,   you can then still use it at your local Starbucks.  And if you have watched any of my videos before,   maybe you've heard me mention some of these  platforms before because I have mentioned them  

[02:05] in other contexts, but many of you have asked me  which of my favorite sites are for Starbucks gift   cards. And that is why I made this video here.  You can join as many or as few of the options   you want to. That's completely up to you. They are  free to join. So you know that's it all depends on  

[02:22] how much time and effort you want to put into  this. It's not as such a prioritized list because   which of the options are best really depends on  your personal preferences when it comes to earning   methods and also to a certain degree the country  you live in. But let's now go to the first option.  

[02:36] If you live in the US, UK or Canada, then Branded  Surveys is a great user-friendly survey website   and it also has an ad for both iOS and Android  devices. It has some quite high-paying surveys,   especially if you keep being an active  member because it has this bonus system. So,  

[02:53] when you're an active member, then you can  earn some really great weekly bonuses, which   then gives you quite high-paying surveys and it  also offers you to earn by playing games. You just   need $5 to withdraw and then in some countries  it offers Starbucks as one of their options.  

[03:09] It also in some countries offer bank transfer,  PayPal and many other gift cards to choose from.   Sproutful is a newer service. Currently, as of  recording this video here, it's only available   in the US. I really like it. It has an interesting  engaging system where you get some extra bonuses  

[03:26] by participating. And I also have a full tutorial  where I show that. I'll leave a link in the top   corner so you can check that out. You only need to  earn $5 to withdraw. One of the payout options at   office is Starbucks gift cards, but it has more  than 200 different rewards you can choose from.  

[03:41] So, if you live in the US, this is definitely one  worth checking out in my opinion. Swagbucks is   one of the biggest and most well-known get paid to  sites and you can join it from all countries, but  

[03:53] it is mainly in the so-called tier one countries  that it has the most earning opportunities. The   exact earning opportunities will vary depending  on your country. Some of the methods to earn is   by playing games, taking paid surveys. You can win  by searching online. It has cashback offers. So,  

[04:11] whenever you shop online, you can get a percentage  back in some countries also and some daily bonuses   and some other earning methods also. The exact  payout threshold you need to reach depends on   your chosen reward, but it starts at around $5.  In some countries, it offers Starbucks as one of  

[04:26] the many gift cards it offers. You can also get  paid via PayPal or pay on if you prefer cash.   Pawns is a great get paid to site both if you like  taking paid surveys or if you like playing games.  

[04:39] It gives the most opportunities through the app,  but you can also use some of the earning options   on a computer. You can also get a free $3 joining  bonus if you join through an invitation link. And   in general, that's the case with some of these.  They will give extra joining bonuses or joining  

[04:54] bonus if you join through a link. So I will leave  a link below also where you can find a full list   of all the options I mentioned here where there  are joining links there are full tutorials there   are links to the full tutorials where you can see  both written tutorials and video tutorials with  

[05:06] payment proof whatever you want to know at the  same time if you join through those links also it   will help me because you support me and my work  and I would definitely appreciate that support.   And Pawns is one of the platforms you  can join from basically all countries  

[05:20] it also has many other gift cards you can choose  from. You can also get paid in Bitcoin or PayPal   and prepaid Visa. If you like taking  paid surveys, then TopSurveys is a great  

[05:35] platform. It's user-friendly. You can use the app  or the website. It's available in many different   countries. You can see some of the options here.  You can just scroll through. So, you can see you   can join from many countries also in the local  language. Exactly how much you need to earn to  

[05:49] get paid will depend on your chosen reward.  the countries where it offers Starbucks as a   gift card. It starts at $5, but it also offers  to pay out in cash and you can also choose   between many other gift cards. And once you  redeem, you'll get paid more or less instantly.  

[06:04] HeyCash is a get-paid-to website and app. You can join from  many countries. Again, we can just scroll through   here and see some of the options here. It is quite  user-friendly. It has a decent amount of ways to   earn and especially the paid offers, the gaming  offers are quite good here in my opinion. You can  

[06:21] choose in some countries to get paid in Starbucks  gift cards. You just need to earn $5 to do that.   Some of the other rewards it offers, you can see  it offers more than 315 rewards in some countries.   And I have seen the payout threshold being as  low as $1. You can see it also offers PayPal,  

[06:38] Venmo, bank transfer even in some  countries, and many other types of rewards.   We now only have three more options to go over.  And before doing that, I just want to make you   aware that majority of you watching have actually  not subscribed to my channel. And it's a free  

[06:52] easy way to support my channel and my work here.  So if you get any benefits out of it, I would   really appreciate if you just take one second to  subscribe. You can always change your mind later.   And then also hit the like button so you can  help this video to get more attention. I would  

[07:06] definitely appreciate that support. Prime Opinion  is a user-friendly survey website and app. You can   also find some paid offers here, but I prefer it  for the paid surveys. Exactly how much you need   to earn to get paid will vary depending on the  country you live in and your chosen payout option.  

[07:22] But in the countries where it offers Starbucks  as a gift card, then you usually have to earn   around $5. Other rewards it offers are PayPal,  Revolut, Walmart, you can see Amazon gift cards,  

[07:34] many different rewards depending on your country.  And you can see the different countries you can   join from here. It's available in quite a lot of  countries and this has expanded quite a bit since   I first talked about it. So you can definitely  join from many countries now as you can see.  

[07:50] And a great thing is also once you redeem  you will get paid more or less instantly.   GrabPoints used to be get-paid-to site where you  could find a lot of paid offers. Now it is just a   survey site. So, it is a little bit easier to use  to figure out how to use and it offers some quite  

[08:05] high-paying surveys. Just be aware that it has  pop-up ads or ads that comes up once in a while   cover some of the screen when you will have logged  in even when you go to the payout section. That's   something is quite unusual for a survey site. I  find it's a shame because overall GrabPoints is a  

[08:21] quite good survey site, but that just makes the  usability a little bit less user friendly than   the other platforms I've talked about here because  none of those have that. So that's just something   to keep in mind. But overall, it gives a quite  good amount of paid surveys. quite high-paying  

[08:36] surveys, also how much you need to earn to withdraw.  Depends on your chosen method. But for gift cards   to Starbucks, from what I've seen in the countries  where it offers it, it starts at around $5.   Some payout options also start as low as $3. You  can get paid also in cash via PayPal and choose  

[08:52] between a lot of different gift cards. The exact  gift cards depends on the country you live in   and usually it's relevant local gift cards it  offers which is definitely great. The last option  

[09:04] I wanted to show you is called Rewards1. It is  not so wellnown but I kind of like this get paid   to site. You just need to spend a little bit of  time getting used to it. It's not as user friendly   as some of the others but once you get used to  it has some quite good options. And what I really  

[09:21] like about it is that it has this unusual payout  option that they call a custom reward. And this   is where you would need to go if you want to get a  Starbucks gift card because it doesn't offer it as   a standard. As a standard, it offers PayPal and  a lot of other gift cards. The payout threshold  

[09:37] starts at $1, but if you want a Starbucks gift  card, you need to earn at least $5. go to the   custom reward and this is where you can basically  request any kind of online reward if they don't   have it as a standard and that's something I have  not seen on any other get-paid-to site even though  

[09:53] I have tested hundreds of different survey and get  paid to sites. So these are the best options that   I have come across where you can earn by doing  free online microtask and get paid in Starbucks  

[10:05] gift cards. As mentioned earlier, you just need to  do it with the right expectations. It's a way to   make some extra money on the side to cover your  coffee or whatever else you buy at Starbucks,   but it does take some time and effort. It's not  a magical way to become rich or anything like  

[10:18] that. So, just keep that in mind. You can join  as few or as many of these options as you want to   depending on how much time and effort you want to  put into this. I will leave a link below so you   can go to a full list I have on my website. You  can find the joining links so you can easily find  

[10:31] the exact right platform in your country. Some of  them have specific platforms for your country. You   can make sure you get the best joining bonus.  You can find links to full tutorials uh both   written and in video where I also show payment  proof. So you can go there and check that out.  

[10:46] And I would definitely appreciate if you want  to join any of these then if you join through   my link that will also support me and my work and  I would definitely appreciate that. And on this   list I have also added a few extra options that  we didn't have time to cover in this video here
