Mistplay review
Mistplay rewards you in units for playing newly discovered games, with earning capped at two hours of play per game per day. It suits students who already game on their phone and will not mind that units can expire after 180 days of inactivity.
Our review
The bottom line
Mistplay rewards you in units for playing newly discovered games. Its own disclosure says units have no stated cash value, that redemptions are capped at a total value of $550 a year, and that units expire after 180 days without logging in or earning.
Who it suits, and who should skip it
It suits students who already play mobile games and treat the rewards as a bonus. Skip it if you want a clear cash rate per hour, because Mistplay does not state one.
How you earn
You earn units by reaching checkpoints in games you newly discover through the app, completing promotions, sweepstakes and challenges, and keeping a daily streak. Each checkpoint pays a base amount multiplied by the game's unit multiplier. Your multiplier is personal to you and capped by your Loyalty Tier. Games you installed outside Mistplay earn nothing.
How you get paid
Open the Shop tab, pick a gift card or reward, check the email it is sent to, tap Buy and confirm. Mistplay says orders are approved within 48 hours, and you then get an email from a reward partner with the reward and instructions. If nothing arrives after 48 hours you can submit a request.
What to watch
Earning is capped at two hours of play per game per day. Earnings differ between users and can change, depending on your behaviour in the app, your location and partner limits. Gift card values may vary by user, provider and location.
Student notes
If you stop playing for a few months, log in or earn before the 180 days pass, or your units expire. Treat the $550 yearly cap as a ceiling, not a target.
