Replace a Bill started with a simple idea: making money on the side is a lot less overwhelming when you give it one clear, small job.
Instead of chasing a vague “second income,” you pick one monthly bill – the phone, Netflix, the electric bill, car insurance – and set out to earn exactly enough to pay it. When your side income covers that bill every month, you pick the next one.

How We Write
Our articles are researched and drafted with the help of AI tools, then checked against the sources we link to before they are published. We date our guides and update them when facts change.
Bylines are pen names. Each section of the site has its own byline, so you can see at a glance which topic a guide belongs to – they are not the names of real staff writers.
If you spot a mistake, please tell us and we will fix it.
Our Promise
We don’t promise riches. Every figure we mention is an estimate, and what you earn will depend on your time, where you live and the effort you put in. Our articles are researched from sources we link to, and anything to do with taxes, benefits or the law is general information only – check with a qualified professional about your own situation.
