As moms, our phones are practically glued to our hands—whether we’re answering school group chats, checking recipes, or scrolling through Shopee for the best deals. But did you know your phone isn’t just for browsing and messaging? Yep, it can actually help you earn!
When I first started exploring side hustles, I thought I’d need fancy equipment or a full-blown setup. Turns out, all I needed was my phone, a good internet connection, and a little creativity.
Here are 10 side hustles you can do straight from your phone (yes, even while waiting for the kids at school pick-up):
- Online Selling on Shopee/Lazada/Facebook Marketplace – declutter your home or resell finds.
- Content Creation – start with TikTok or Instagram Reels (short videos get lots of attention!).
- Freelance Writing/Editing – yes, you can type and submit from your phone.
- Virtual Assistance (Basic Tasks) – email management, scheduling, social media posting.
- Online Tutoring (Basic English/Math) – apps like Preply or Cambly work on mobile.
- Selling Preloved Clothes/Items on Carousell – perfect for moms cleaning out closets.
- Food Pre-Orders via FB Groups – list, chat, and sell — all on your phone.
- Micro-Tasking Apps – like TaskMate, Clickworker, or survey apps.
- Affiliate Marketing – share Shopee/Lazada links and earn from referrals.
- Social Media Management (Starter Level) – posting, commenting, and responding for brands.
👉 The best part? You don’t need to invest a lot — most of these you can start today.
If you’ve been wanting to earn extra without juggling too much, maybe one of these can be your first step. Moms, we already multitask like pros… why not get paid for it too?
