The Ultimate Side Hustle That Actually Works

By Team Fetch

June 20, 2025

You’ve seen the listicles:

“50 side hustles that pay daily.”
“Best side hustle apps in 2025.”
“Side hustles from home that make $$$.”

They’re full of ideas like dog walking, flipping furniture, or becoming a part-time candle tycoon.

But what if you could earn real rewards just by doing what you already do, like:

  • Grocery shopping
  • Playing mobile games
  • Ordering stuff online
  • Grabbing a bit from your favorite local spot

With Fetch, you can!

Shop and play to earn rewards: it's that easy! - download Fetch

Wait, what’s Fetch?

Fetch is a free app that turns your receipts, paper and digital, into points you can redeem for gift cards to Amazon, Target, Starbucks, and hundreds of other favorites.

But that’s just the beginning.

In 2025, Fetch is more than just a receipt scanner: it’s an all-in-one rewards engine with multiple ways to hustle smarter, not harder.

Stay-at-home? You’re already hustling

1. Grocery runs = points galore

Whether it’s cereal, soda, or snacks—you buy it, you scan it, you earn.

Pro tip: Fetch brands = bonus points. Keep an eye on your in-app offers!

2. eReceipts = passive earning

Connect your email or Amazon account and Fetch will auto-scan your online orders from retailers like Walmart, Target, and Instacart.

3. Home upgrades = side hustle fuel

Thanks to Fetch Shop, your everyday purchases from select online stores earn even more points.

  • πŸ›  Buying a new drill from Home Depot?
  • πŸ›‹οΈ Ordering decor from Walmart?
  • πŸ’» Snagging tech from Best Buy?

Shop smarter, not harder. Fetch Shop makes you money while you spend money.

4. Play games = win gift cards

Yes, seriously. With Fetch Play, you can earn points just by trying new mobile games on your phone.

Fun + free = The side hustle dream combo!

Always on-the-go? You’re still earning

5. Fuel up, cash in

Every stop at the gas station = points in your pocket. Your commute literally fuels your Fetch side hustle.

6. Fast food = fast rewards

Picked up some nuggets or a venti latte? That receipt is worth points. Even small spends turn into gift cards over time.

Fetch = set-it-and-flex-it

Let’s face it: most side hustles require:

  • Schedules
  • Skills
  • Sales pitches
  • Or at least effort

Fetch requires none of that. It’s passive. It’s flexible. It’s actually fun.

  • No startup costs
  • No pressure
  • No burnout

Why Fetch outranks every other side hustle app

Side hustle Time-consuming? Upfront cost? Actually fun? Daily momentum?
Rideshare driving Yes Yes Meh Sometimes
Freelance writing Time-intensive No Depends Maybe
Selling online Very Often Stressful Not really
Using Fetch Nope Zero Yes Every receipt/game/order
