Best Places To Get Paid To Talk To Lonely People

There are many side hustle ideas if you are looking for one. But, the one that I am talking about in this post is a bit strange to listen to.

Could you ever imagine that you would get paid to talk to lonely people? Well, I am sure an idea would never come to your mind.

But the truth is a bit different. As people grow old, there is hardly any person that they can spend time talking to.

Many people in their old age complain about feeling lonely and thus that leads to other mental diseases.

But not anymore, you can take up the opportunity and fill your pockets with a good amount of cash by just talking to them.

Here I have a list of platforms that will help you meet clients who need your time. Let us start:

Rent A Friend

Many people like hopping to parties but don’t have anyone to come along. Well, in such cases too, you can lend your helping hand and get paid to become a friend.

Some people look for a company to attend several occasions.

Through Rent a friend, you can easily be a part of the lives of people who are looking for a company. It is easy and free to register with the platform and you can earn as high as $50 per hour.

How To Make Money By Writing Blogs (Without Experience !)

If you feel this is a fun job for you too, go ahead and take the chance.

How Much It Will Cost You To join Rent A Friend?

Joining Rent a Freind is absolutely free, you don’t have to pay them anything, you will keep 100% of your earnings.

WAIT!! then how do they earn money? when they do not cut their commissions from your earnings?

Well, they charge a small amount of money for accessing their website from the people who are hiring you as a friend, which allows them to contact you. So that’s their business model.

How Much Money Can You Make On Rent A Friend?

Well, here is a screenshot of their site where they mentioned how much money you can make based on how many hours you work there.

Join Papa

The name of this company in itself tells you a lot about it. Through this website, you can connect to elderly seniors who need young people to spend some time.

Your primary job is to act as a caretaker and involve in little household activities.

For your services through this platform, you can earn up to $15 for an hour. And, the more hours your work, the more money you get.

And there are no limits of earnings, according to the website, their most active Pals earn over $3000 per month.

It is kind of a social job you need to do for which you even get paid in return.

Fiverr

This website is a bit different than the others on the list. It is a well-known freelancing site where you are your own master.

People from different parts of the globe offer their services in any area they are good at.

Look at the screenshot below, you can see people are actually selling these kinds of services over there.

If you look closely you can see they have reviews as well, which means people are actually buying their services.

If you too want to try out, go ahead and create your own ‘gig’ with the services you wish to offer.

People who are interested in your service will directly contact you and pay you for the same.

FriendPC

For operating on the FriendPC platforms you need not have any special skills. You can easily sign-up for free and offer your services.

The platform is about offering online companionship and you can list that as your service.

You can connect with your clients on phone calls, texts and charge for your time. You can decide your rates on the platform but you need to pay a part of it as commission to the platform as well.

RentALocalFriend

This is a very interesting platform for those who love to travel with local people while visiting a particular place. Yes! You read that right.

You can help people when they visit your local limits. Especially, if your city is a popular destination that people travel to, this is a great opportunity for you.

You can charge hourly rates as high as $50 to $200 depending on your choice. All you need to do is create an account after sign-up and you are all good to go.

Remember to provide your personal details too.

Premium Chat

If you have expertise in a particular field, you can make money by talking with people who need consultation in that area.

  • Financial Advice

RentACyberFriend

All you need to do is create your profile with the list of services that you can offer. Besides, you can pick your rates and the time you want to work.

There is less competition on the platform and thus, is a great opportunity that you just can’t miss out on.

The platform can be used by both English and Spanish speakers. You can take the opportunity and offer your services to earn some good money.

Frequently Asked Questions

Now that you know that you just talk and earn money, you might have some other related questions coming to your mind.

Well, I am here to answer all of them. Thus, I have some of the most commonly asked questions and the answers related to the topic. Let’s get started!

Can I earn a living by talking to lonely people?

Well, the basic idea is that this method is good for a side hustle and not a primary source of income.

Most of the platforms pay you enough for your services and that is enough to earn some extra. If you are looking at it as a full-time job, not all platforms pay you that high.

What qualities are need for such kind of job?

The first and most important is that you need to be good at talking to people. if you are someone who has talked enough in their lives and want to earn some money by doing so, you can try out the platform that is mentioned above.

Do I need to have a computer and webcam for the job?

It is not a necessary criterion. Some platforms do need you to have a computer and webcam for video calling services.

But if you want to offer chats through texts, only a smartphone is all you need.

There are several options to choose from and you can go for the ones that do not need a computer or webcam compulsorily.

Can I do such jobs part-time?

Some platforms go for hourly pay and that can be the best fit for you. The more you work the more money you can easily earn.

You offer your services on an hourly basis and get paid for the exact amount of work you do.

Final Thoughts

It is not just older people who feel lonely and need people to talk to. Many other people too, including teenagers, travelers, college-going students too need company at some point in life. Besides, for people looking for a side hustle that pays good, this is a great option.

No one could have ever thought in their lives that by simply talking one can earn some money. But, today, it has come true.

If you are good at talking to other people, you can make money out of it.

Many people involve in such services today as there is a lack of jobs but people need money.

The internet has gifted you all possible ways to earn money and today, you can even get paid to talk to lonely people. Gone are the days when you needed some qualification to earn money.

But now, even without a degree of education, you can connect with lonely people, spend time talking to them and earn money easily.

You have nothing else to do other than talking, and you can get paid for that too.

Thus, if such a side hustle method interests you, you can also get started right away. Without any investment, you can register and get started.

What else are you waiting for? Go and grab the opportunity that is waiting to pay you in good amounts.

    Now the issue is Paypal account. Do we use banks to open that account or we can create them on internet.!

    1. Rohit Lohia
      Rohit Lohia

      You can open a Paypal account on the Internet, but you need your bank account to complete your verification on Paypal. You also need a credit/debit card to link to your Paypal account.

      So basically you want an active bank account and an active credit card in order to create a Paypal account.

      Having experience is always a plus point as a lot of people apply for the same job but only a few of them get selected and no special training is needed for this type of job, only good communication skill is what you all need.

    Hello and thanks for writing such a resourceful article! Talking to lonely people is a dream side gig for me. I just started with PapaPal, and it’s been a great match as I’ve always gotten on well with people older than I. I have tried Rent A Friend several times over the past 3 years and the site always says that they aren’t currently accepting new applications but will be soon. Have you had a different experience recently? I’m looking forward to exploring the other opportunities you wrote about. Thanks again!

    1. Rohit Lohia
      Rohit Lohia

      Hi Annie, yes Rent a Friend is not accepting new applications right now but you can try other websites.

      I have a good experience with Fiverr, you can create your service there and interested people will order your gig.

      In my opinion the best approach is to build your own client base instead of depending on these websites.

      Try to find people on Instagram, Snapchat, dating applications and talk with them, find out their problems, and then offer them your services.

      Let me know if you need any other help. 😊

    I’m extremely interested in doing this and have been reading for hours. Very interesting, I must say. As a life coach just starting out, this is a great idea. The link to College Pirates is faulty though. When I googled it it came up as tutoring or mentoring college students. Is this correct? Is it possible for you to post the actual website? Really appreciate your article. Thank you

    1. Rohit Lohia
      Rohit Lohia

      Hi Kristi, first of all thankyou so much for letting me know about the broken link.

      Unfortunately College Pirated has discontinued their services, that’s why their website is down and you cannot find it anywhere on Google too.

      But the good news is, I have found a new site for you. As you are a life coach, you can sell your consultation services on this website.

      The site is Called Premium Chat, I have replaced the college pirates with this new site, you can find the link in the article.

      Thankyou 😊

    I would love to talk to anyone who just needs someone to hear them. We all need someone we can vent to and help heal the void of loneliness. I have worked in healthcare for the past 18 years and part of my job was to care for people and be there for them. I know I can do this 🙂 God bless

      Rohit Lohia

      Hi Tiffiny, that’s so correct, at some point of time we all need someone to talk with, there are some people who do not have friends and family members to whom they can share their feelings so if you can help them out in any way, that would be awesome.

    Hy…. Like how will start getting paid after getting in on the apps stated above? …..

    1. Rohit Lohia
      Rohit Lohia

      Hi Lily, so this depends on which websites you are applying on, for eg. on Rentafriend, you have to create a profile and choose the option “Become a Friend”.

      After your application is approved by the website, your profile will be live and people all over the world start sending you proposals to become a friend and do awesome stuff like travelling, movie, coffee, etc.

      Once they hire you, you will be paid by the company.

      Now, if you want to know how much you are going to get paid, I suggest you to visit the mentioned website and check their FAQ section. That will help you out as i cannot mention fee structure of every website over here.

      Thankyou

      Hi Lakpa, yes you can work from Nepal too. Many websites support applications from all over the country but i always recommend to build your own client base rather then depending on third party websites. You can easily find lonely people on social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, etc.
