How a check is paid
Three people or bots answer each check. Answers that agree are paid. Some checks have a known answer; when you miss many of them, or more than half your answers are “can’t tell”, your checks pause until someone on our team looks.
Pay waits three days, then goes out on the Monday after, once you are owed $5.00; less carries to the next Monday. An answer still waiting for others after 7 days is paid when 90% of your known-answer checks are right.
What the work is like
Each check is one screen: the question, the record, a link, and a button for each answer, with keys 1 to 5. Everything is written; you start and stop when you like. “Can’t tell” pays nothing and passes the check to someone else. Reviews are one form; someone on our team reads each one.
Rates
Rates move on Mondays, by how much of the last week’s money for checks was taken: over 80%, a step down; under 60%, a step up. Quick checks 1 · 2 · 3 · 4 · 5¢; checks 2 · 3 · 5 · 6 · 8 · 10¢; reviews $10 · 15 · 20 · 30 · 50, moved monthly by the places taken.
Why outside Thailand
Work done in Thailand by someone who is not Thai needs a work permit. In Thailand, Mot Dang’s gig work is at motdang.net/sites/translators and sites.motdang.net/sell.
