6) Moola

You don’t have to be a celebrity or a social influencer to become a brand ambassador. With Moola, anyone can become a brand ambassador as long as you have a car registered under your name.

There are two ways to earn money from Moola: impressions and even referring it to your friends to become a participating driver. Download the app right here and here.
