A short explanatory YouTube video by Dan Novaes describing how Mode Mobile lets users earn money on their phones by performing simple engagement activities (playing games, reading articles, listening to audio). Advertisers pay Mode Mobile for desired user actions (e.g., habit-building for a game), Mode shares part of that advertiser payment with users as rewards. Example specifics given: an advertiser might pay roughly $7 for a user acquisition tied to a game, Mode may reward users across a multi-day period (example: seven days), and some activities are paid per minute of engagement.

How does someone get paid from their phone? Example of how it works essentially is think about, like, Candy Crush. What does Candy Crush as an advertiser want? They want you to play their game and build a habit. And so they have a price that they're willing to pay for that within their own internal models. And so they may pay us like seven bucks for someone. And what we'll do is we will reward you per day. You play Candy Crush for a period of seven days. And so it's a long enough period of time that you're getting rewarded. And it's not like you're making thousands of dollars play Candy Crash, but it depends on the action. So that's a very simple one. Like playing a game, we might reward you to read a news article. And so we're going to read something that you want do or listening a podcast or listening to a music stream. And you're getting paid per minute that you're doing that activity.
