Jobs for 15 year olds and 16 year olds are sometimes hard to find. Maybe you want a job so you can earn extra money or maybe you need a part time job because your parents want you to have one. This is especially true for 16 year olds as often their parents feel they need to have some real life jobs experience.
If you are one of those looking for that real job experience because your parents want you to, then I would go to SnagAJob.com where you can search over 100,000 part-time and full-time hourly positions. This online site specializes in part time hourly positions and just the type of jobs 15 and 16 year olds are looking for like at movie theaters, Pizza Hut, etc. It is FREE TO SIGN UP so give it a try as it is a great place to find real jobs for teenagers.
BUT…..If you are 15 or 16 and looking for jobs just to make extra cash, then you can start to do that from your room! CashCrate is a FREE survey site that you can join and start making money and you will never have to spend any money doing it and you DO NOT NEED A CREDIT CARD. I started at Cash Crate over a year ago and now I make between $400.00 and $500.00 EVERY MONTH. If you don’t believe me here is a short video proof of one of my checks. (also a picture of another) My November 2008 payment was for $480.30 and can see my progression of CashCrate earnings here.

CashCrate is a great site and real easy to navigate and earn extra money. It is not really a jobs for 16 year olds but it is a tested real way for anyone 13 years and older to earn extra money. You do not need a credit card and they will send you a real paper check every month just like I got in the video.
When you sign up to CashCrate you should start out by doing all offers that say “Register for free” as those are real quick. You should also make sure you clear your computer’s cookies before each one to make sure you get credit. Then move on to all the free surveys and everything else that says “100% free”. Of course you don’t own a credit card so you can’t do any offers that require one but you don’t ever need to do any credit card offers (I never have).
You can also make even more money by referring your friends and then you and they will be making money together. If you start making referrals you will see that you can make more and more money as you will get a percentage of what your referrals make! You can advertise on Craigslist but not on MySpace or FaceBook.
Another site like CashCrate where teens 13 and older can make extra money online is SurveyTeam. You get a $3.00 bonus just for signing up and you make money by filling out surveys just like CahsCrate. Just register for free and get paid for providing your honest opinions. You must live in the USA for this one.
Both CashCrate and SurveyTeam are great part time jobs for 15 and 16 year olds that you can do in your spare time during winter or summer to make extra cash. Learning different money making ideas you can do in your free time is sick and once you start making money with these two free paid survey sites you definitely will want to tell all your friends!

are you sure theres no catches?
& can you do this if you live in the UK?
You can do CashCrate if you live in the UK but there might be fewer surveys/offers available to you. I do know for sure that you can refer people wherever you live and make money that way. CashCrate also pays by PayPal now if you don’t like the paper checks.
You ask about “catches”. There are no catches with CashCrate and if you have any questions you should go to the forums after you join and see if your questions are answered there. CashCrate gives you money for doing surveys and registering for things and they can do that because they are only paying part to you of what they get for referring you to these offers. For instance, maybe they get paid $1.00 for getting you to fill out a survey. They then turn around and give 50 cents to you. That way they make money and you make money.
For people living in the UK here are some other options although I don’t know about the age requirements for these. Please go to this link for more ways to make money in the UK:

How can you tell how much money you make with just surveys/offers? Plus I’m 16 and I need a job to earn cash, is it worh it signing up for CashCrate and earning cash without actually “working”? Because I’m always hearing from people and news that websites like CashCrate are bogus and are not gonna pay you just for doing surveys and other stuff online.
Nick,
You saw the video of my check as proof that they pay. I have made over $300 already this month again so I don’t know what to tell you. I would say to sign up and then go read the forum where there are lots of hints and tips and other people who will validate that you WILL GET PAID!
If you get paid, does the check/cash get sent over to your house in mail?
What company is CashCrate in anyway?? I hear it’s a good site to earn cash and I believe it’s real, so what company is it in?
Tina,
The check gets sent in an envelope through the mail to the address you give so make sure you use the correct address. It is a real check that any bank will cash.
You can also get paid via PayPal if you like and here is proof of that as in September I had them pay me by PayPal http://moneymakinghobby.com/2008/10/01/make-money-using-paypal-and-cashcrate/
David,
The company that owns CahsCrate is Kingside Media.
Can you do cashcrate in Washington and is it a good business under bbb.com, because bbb.com has all the good companies and businesses and Cashcrate should be in it.
Jake,
You can see the video of my check and the screen print of where I got paid via PayPal one month here http://moneymakinghobby.com/2008/10/01/make-money-using-paypal-and-cashcrate/
I don’t know or care whether they are part of BBB because I GET PAID and that is all I care about!
What about taxes?? How does that apply to this??
Oh and one more thing what if i want to end my account am i able to cancel it or is there a penalty???
Crystal,
You only have to pay taxes if you make more than $600 in a year. Then they will ask for your social security number.
You can cancel your account with no penalty anytime.
You can read more in the forums where most or all of your questions will be answered.
Is there a way to know which one you don’t have to be 18 for without going through all of them?? Because I’m 15 and it’s becoming apain to find all the surveys that are only for 18 years old and higher.
Thank you!!!
I’m not sure about that Crystal. I would ask that question in the forums and one of the moderators might be able to answer it.
Thanks for showing me CashCrate. It’s fun and I’m starting to make money now! I just got my first check!!!
These kind of sites are bullcrap, no one, unless rich, gives away free money. With corperate America the way it is now, money is a major issue. Also some offers tell you to do this, do that and when you are finally done something/problem pops up at the end meaning that you have wasted all that time trying to get “free money”, which is almost impossible.
How long does it take to fill out one of the surveys and how much do you get for each?
Jared,
Sorry you feel that way. My check I get every month sure seems to be real. Also the my bank and bank account also think they are real.
Are companies not advertising any more on TV and radio? Hmmm…last time I checked they still are. And so are companies continuing to advertise on the Internet and sites like CashCrate. CashCrate is real my friend and I have the checks to prove it
to get a real job lik pizza hut, walmart,etc… can i be 14 years of age? i was born on 1994 and i think thats 14if not its 15 but im lookin for a real job even tho cashcrate sounds nice. will u please tell me if i will b able to aplly for the real jobs?
Brenda,
I’m not sure about what companies allow what ages. I would sign up and see what ages are required after signing up. You may be too young to sign up and then it would tell you that. Also the individual companies probably have the age requirements in their ads inside SnagAJob.
But you are not too young to sign up for CashCrate
hi, I was wondering if this really worked. I am 14 years old and i am trying to get me a job but it seems like i am too young. Is there going to be any fees i would have to pay? Also will it get me in any type of trouble if i start? I’m Really trying to trust this. So please tell me if this is not Bull Or fake
Brittany,
You have seen the video of my check, it is real. There are no fees. You will not get in trouble as you need to be 13 and you are 14. I know things on the Internet are hard to trust but this is real and you can make real spending money with this.
ok so im in cash crate already but my money is still on the pending side ?
i checked my account like 10 times logged in and out and my money is still in pending ?
i really want my first paycheck help
Isabel,
Please go to the forum and poke around there. The answer to most questions like your are there in the threads along with hints and advice from other members
hi my name is adriana and i am a 16 year old looking for a job, i was wondering if you can help me get one?
Sign up for SnagAJob and you should be able to find one in your area, Adriana.
how will i know how long it will take to get off pending earnings to the months earns. please help.
Jordan please go to the forum and read the threads about pending earnings.
so i really want to do this, but i hear all the horror stories. my parents dont really trust this, and i dont know how to prove it to them. (i showed my dad the video- he kinda thinks its forged, that anyone can do it.) anyone else who does this have legit proof? and honestly, any downsides? thanx so much. (also, how old r u? how long u been doing this?)
How do you forge a video like that? Sorry Alyssa, some parents don’t trust anything but since you never have to give CashCrate anything but a name and email, what can go wrong? Also, after you sign up you can go to the forum and read what others are making so either a whole lot of people are lying and it is one big conspiracy, or it is legit. Oh BTW, there are many scams on the Internet but that does not mean everything is.
hi, i am interested in signing up for surveyteam…do they pay like cashcrate?
I need a job that pays cash..!!
hi
i was just wondering about this cashcrate website. do i have to pay anything at all?
Hi
since 2008 had bad economy and buissiness went down, my allowance started to decrease and I was wondering if I can work for myself just for good experience and to see how its like working for myself and getting my own money that I worked for. If anyone could please tell me where they need hiring for a 15 yr old like me, i would really be happy
Amy,
You never ever have to pay them anything. Just never do any of the offers that require a credit card. Do only the free offers.
Neelum,
If you want a real part time job, sign up for SnagAJob. They have jobs that 15 year olds would qualify for that pay hourly.
