Meet the founder

The Second Income UK was founded by Justin Logan, a UK-based engineer who built the site after spending too long trawling through generic, US-centric, or upsell-driven side hustle advice that didn't apply to British readers. After years of personally testing UK side hustle platforms, second-income ideas, and tax-efficient ways to keep more of what he earned, he started TSI-UK to be the resource he wished had existed.

Justin runs the site through PB Eng Ltd, a UK-registered company. He chooses every topic that gets covered, directs the research, and reviews each article before it goes live. The site is independent: not owned by, partnered with, or sponsored by any platform, broker, or financial services company.

What we do

The Second Income UK publishes in-depth, practical guides to side hustles, passive income ideas, and money-saving strategies specifically for people living and working in the UK.

There's a lot of generic "make money online" content out there that doesn't account for UK tax rules, UK platforms, or the UK cost of living. We focus exclusively on what actually works here.

Our standards

We only recommend products and services we believe are genuinely useful. Where we have an affiliate relationship with a service we recommend, we disclose it clearly. Affiliate commissions never influence which products we recommend or how we rate them. If something isn't worth your time, we say so.

All earning figures quoted in our guides are realistic estimates based on publicly available data and reader reports. We don't inflate numbers to make things sound better than they are. Income opportunities, platform terms, and market conditions change over time, so we recommend checking current figures before making any decisions. See our full Editorial Policy for how we research, review and update guides.

Affiliate disclosure

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you sign up to a service or make a purchase through one of our links, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This is how we keep the site free and ad-light.

We are registered with several affiliate networks including AWIN, Awin's network of UK side hustle platforms, and direct programmes including Fiverr, Shopify, Quidco, TopCashback, and Swagbucks.
