The only payment you receive is on Amazon.com , I wish there were other options.

unfortunately, they only pay out thru your account in amazon and a US account if you have one..

i'm up to $160 today and have been happy bout it ever since that I would prefer doing those easy tasks than clicking on PTCs.. hehe..

Because of reading about Mturk in this thread i decided to sign up. I have spent around 2 hours each evening since joining doing tasks (while watching tv). Been able to make around $5.00 each day I've found that tasks by "photomod" have been the quickest/easiest for me. they are 5cent tasks.

I love it, I've been doing this for 2 weeks, just whenever I have a few spare minutes... it's really adding up!!

I have a problem signing up. When I fill up the registration form, under zipcode/postal code, it always said "invalid zipcode." Also, under country, it only have United States. Did anybody get the same problem?

[szelok]

Nevermind, I signed up.

Can anyone tell me what you do on the site? It's not one of the ones which you have to click the ads right?
Is it an official site of amazon?

nope.. you do some HITs wherein you either transcribe an audio you hear, correct sentences, find contact info for a specific person, etc.. remember those tasks from swagbucks where you judge items correctly, they have the same in mturk and pay out .15 cents (used to be .25) per page you submit (not 10 like in SB).. it may take some time to find easy, high paying tasks though, but if you look for the requesters mentioned in the previous pages, you may know where to start..

Thanks for the help. I signed up, but what do I do now? I did the qualification test...

find a HIT (human intelligence tasks) that appeals to you and are qualified for.. click the "view a HIT in this group", then follow the instructions required for that HIT..
