What a review takes
- Listen firstSideHusl says you must listen to at least 90 seconds of a song.
- WriteIt says each review must be at least 60 words.
- Keep your rating upMoneyMagpie says your pay depends on your star rating.
SideHusl’s sum: 20 reviews in an hour would earn about $1 to $4, which it says is nowhere near minimum wage.
Before you start
- Some listeners told SideHusl their accounts were disabled just before they could cash out.
- Slicethepie’s own pages show no rate, so these figures come from reviews of the site.
