How to get started

Open Pawns.app through the referral link on this page; the referral is attached automatically.
Create an account and verify your email (a phone check may also be requested).
Install the app on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS or Linux.
Earn until you reach the $5 minimum and request a payout; bonus parts arrive with your early payouts if made within the window shown in the app.

What is Pawns.app?

Pawns.app pays a US-dollar balance for tasks:

Surveys – up to $5 per survey, depending on your region.
Mobile games – $10 to $100 per game for reaching in-game milestones.
Quests, Prize Wheel, Lucky Draw, Leaderboard – cash, gems, boosts or draw tickets.
Traffic Sharing – optional; Pawns.app and its business clients route internet traffic through your connection. No per-GB rate is published on the official site.
Referrals – $3 per invited friend.

Apps exist for Android, iOS 15+, Windows 7+, macOS 12+ (M1 or newer) and Linux.

Who it's for

People who want small, flexible extra income from a phone or computer. Pawns.app itself says it is not a job replacement and that only the most active users may earn up to $500 a month. Not a fit if you rely on a VPN, want several accounts, or live where no payout method is supported.

Referral code and bonus terms

Every user gets a referral link, code and QR code in the Community tab. When someone signs up through one:

The new user gets a $3 welcome bonus in three $1 parts.
The inviter gets $1 for each of the referral's first three payouts.

Each part requires the referral to reach a payout within a regional time window shown in the app; a missed window cancels that $1 for both sides.

The affiliate page describes the new-user split as $1 on joining plus $1 on each of the first two payouts; the help center says $1 on each of the first three payouts. The total is $3 either way. The public code EARN3 is not needed when you arrive via a referral link.
