Jobs for 15 year olds and 16 year olds are sometimes hard to find. Maybe you want a summer 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 and are serious about finding a job, then I would go to Job.com where you can search 1000’s of jobs. Some of them are part-time and full-time hourly positions. If you are serious about finding a job this summer (or right now) you should include online sites such as Job.com in your search. It’s a good place to get a job so that you can earn some money this summer. You will be able to look through all the jobs you might qualify for such as retail jobs, bowling alley jobs, movie theatre jobs, restaurant jobs, and others. Note: please don’t sign up to Job.com unless you are are really looking for jobs and want to work!

Option #2: You can also try CashCrate for a free and fun way to make extra $$
If you are 15 or 16 and looking for ways to make some 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.

November 2008 payment from CashCrate – $480.30
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! Note: you can’t advertise 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!
If you would like to make a comment, please fill out the form below.
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.
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. But you should ask your parents first. 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.
hey i just started on cash crate i keep trying out surveys that are 100% free but must of them end up making u pay by singing up on another website.
can some give me some help on witch survey to click that really is 100% free
Hello i was wondering if you HAVE to clean out your cookies before each one, because every time i clean out my cookies it logs me off. If i don’t clean out my cookies do i not get paid?
Devon,
Be sure to go to the forum and read all the threads there. You can sort to find all the 100% free surveys and you NEVER have to sign up for anything.
Tom Jones,
You don’t have to but it is recommended otherwise some of your surveys will not convert and will stay pending.
Let me ask…
If it is so easy to make money, what do they get out this besides reviews? It makes no sense.
TheGame,
Please go to http://moneymakinghobby.com/2008/09/10/why-cashcrate-and-other-survey-sites-are-legitimate/ which will answer that question.
Like every single survey you click on, it asks for your address…
they don’t send you stuff in the mail do they? i don’t feel right just givin out my address to strange websites
okay so i signed up for it.
but i can’t seem to find out what
survey to take all i see
requires card thingies..
Rochelle,
You need to put in your real address in your CashCrate profile so that they can send you your check!
Nadine,
Go to the 100% free offers…there are tons of them. Also go to the forum where there are tutorials.
hmm. i only have 3 offers. only one is free. haha. unlucky for me, i think it depends on what country you are from.
Ok, when i see offers or surveys i just click on them then I just click sumbit on the list and i receive the payout without having to fillout anything so do I still get paid?
Devin,
Like I have been telling everyone else, the best way to start is to read the tutorial on the front page and then go to the forum. There you will find more tutorials and lots of hints and tips from others. I think almost all of your questions will be answered in the forum.
hey so you say we don’t need nothing but take suvery a ok i ask my mom because i need money
What are the surveys on? and how much do you get paid per survey? Are there many for people 15 years old?
I got a question, everything says you need to be 18 and up.
when you signed up for the cashcrate, did you give fake info?
as in fake name, fake address, etc?
Jonah,
The terms of service say that anyone 13 to 18 need their parents consent. That means it is OK to sign up for anyone 13 and over. Don’t give a fake addess when you sign up because they have to have the right address to send you your check
Emily,
If you are having trouble with surveys you can always learn how to refer people as that is another way to make money. Please read: http://moneymakinghobby.com/2009/02/01/how-to-make-cashcrate-referrals/
I’m sorry, I didn’t write the question correctly. I meant, when you are doing the surveys for instance, you need to be 18 and up. Do you need to give true information here?
I was wondering if you get started on cashcrate and want to move on to another job and still want to kepp cashcrate can you? And also I was wondering are there requirements
Zykia,
You can start or quit any time. It is not a real job, just a way to make some extra spending money.
I’m a teen and have earned over $200 from Cashcrate just form 3 months of doing it here and there in my spare time 5 days a week. It really does work, I agree with you!!
how do u make alot of money like u do in an easier way than filling all those offers it would take forever
i want to work .
i have a baby on the way and i need a job.
i can do anything you need me to do
my name is sierra gammon and I am 15 years old and looking for a job online I really love this website please help me find a online job.
hi,
i was wonderin’ if this really works? i have just signed up in cashcrate and at the perfspot, you know.. the survey team thing. ya.. cos you see, i am looking myself a job for this summer and maybe a regular part time job. i am really into this thing already so if you had bad experience or bad comments just please let me know cos i dont wana put myself and my name into any trouble. THANK YOU! Ü
Doing surveys is not a job or a part time job. It is just a way to make some extra spending money. If you need a summer job you should sign up for SnagAJob that has real jobs in your area.
Hey, I’m 15yrs old & I was wondering if there is any other website for teen jobs? Because the SnagAJob site doesn’t have any jobs in my area for 15 year olds…it’s all 16yrs+ Can you help?
& I’m not really interested in the survey job…sorry.
I am 17 year old and I just want to work for this summer, how many hour a day teenagers work
But it doesn’t tell me how i get paid on survey-team or when i get paid i have a account with both but prefer the set up of survey-team but like the guidance of cash crate in my opinion survey-team is better.
ON CASH CRATE HOW LONG DID IT TAKE FOR YOUR MONEY TO MOVE FROM PENDING INTO YOUR ACCOUNT
Is this really real? I mean you fill out questions and get money for it?!!!? It doesn’t seem real.The questions aren’t like personal questions? and like they give it out to other people?
For all the recent questions, I again say to go to the forum and the tutorials. The answers to all your questions is in the forum and tutorials. Please poke around the site and get familiar with it. All your answers are there!
ok sounds cool
I am 17, and have been looking for a job ever since i was 15 1/2!! I have not been the least bit successful!!! I cannot get my drivers license till i get a job so that i can pay for gas and insuranc, and this stuff sounds easy. I just DON’T want to be having all sorts of trouble with my computer: spam, strange ppl trying to contact me, or VIRUSES!! So if this is FOR REAL…. is there any way you can prove it to me. Thanks so much for your time.
Alyssa,
The picture of the check and video is the proof.
Hi! My name is Slyvester and i just made 15 on 04-01 and i’am looking for a nice part time job quick. Could you help me?
hello.
I am 16 and I live in the Philippines. Do you think I can apply in CashCrate?
If ever I got paid via check, where can I have it exchanged for money?
Claudine,
Most of the offers are for people living in the U.S. so there wont be many for you. The only real way you could make money with CashCrate is to refer people.
How long does a check usually take for them to send? I really want to try this but Im a bit worried about it. What exactly do the surveys entail and will it at all crash my commputer at any time?
Ok so i made an acount on cash cratre and iwas gonna do the suryes and stuff but i was wondering for the things you have to register for like the “free imac” things do they really give you theses or is it just trying to get you to sign up? please tell me so i can start making money!
Usually you can skip the items like those as there is a “skip” button at the bottom of the page. Always look for the skip button.
If you are worried then go to the forum and see what everyone else says about CashCrate. There is a thread there where everyone shows the checks they have been paid
I am 16 years old. I have already graduated high school as of this year. I am in desperate need of a full time job. The catch is, Im trying to get emancipated. I am stuck in a bad home situation. I have tried to go out and find a full time job, but jobs are scarce. I am really trying hard to find a good paying job online. All I have found so far are scams (thankfully I havent fallen for any of them.) An online job would benifit me well because I can work from anywhere. Another reason I need an online job is because I am moving to California when I get emancipated. I need an apartment here in Ohio first. I need a good amount of money and fast. I need a ligit job for the judge to okay. I really need help here. Can you help me please? I really really really need this. I would like to make around $500+ a week and not a month.
Thank you.
Kasey.
i really need a dancing job that gives me money.
Where can i cash in my cash crate check? Have you ever had problems cashing the check?
This is a real check and any bank will cash it (you usually have to have an account with a bank before they cash checks though). If you don’t have an account then your parents will be able to cash it.
