Get Paid to Play Games: Become a
Video Game Tester Today!
by:
Alex Lum
Hi, My name is Alex Lum. I
have been a video game tester for various Game Developers for 4
Years now.
Did you know that the average pay rate for game testers is from
$9-$80 an Hour and that you don't need any formal education. The
only requirement for being a game tester is that you are 15 or over.
Video Game Testing is my job and I make $150,000+ per year doing it.
Did you Know?
You do not need any formal education to be a video game tester.
You can get paid $9 - $80 an hour being a video game tester and get
to keep the games you test.
Anyone can become a game tester, all that is required is that you
are 15 or older to get paid to play games.
You only need one video game system to become a video game tester.
You can work as much or as little as you want to.
You might have seen other programs online saying "you can make $150
an hour playing video games online". Don't trust other programs for
these reasons:
They only explain ways to play Internet games, and win prizes, not
how to become a game tester for such companies as Microsoft,
Activision, etc...
They are not experts, I have been a video game tester for 4 years, I
doubt that any of them have never even worked in the video game
industry before.
FAQ
How Much Can I Make?
You can Make anywhere around $9 to $80 an Hour, right now I make
about $75 an Hour.
Why Would a Company to Pay Me?
Because your opinion on their Video Game is extremely important to
them. You will be telling them what you like about the game, and
what you dislike about it, and to let them know if there is anything
wrong with the game. This information is crucial to them, to ensure
the successful release of the game.
How Much Can I Work a Week?
You can work as much or as little as you want. Just pick the jobs
that you would like to complete and they will either have you go
into a local testing center, or they will send the game to you.
When Do I Get Paid?
Normally, you get paid upon completion of an assignment. Usually,
about once a week.
Are There any Requirements to Be a Game Tester and to get paid to
play games?
There are no requirements. You just need to be 15 or over to get a
Game Tester job.
Do I get to Keep the Games I Test?
Many companies allow you to keep the games you test. I have about a
300 XBOX game library from all of the games I have tested.
