What is Microworkers?
Microworkers is an innovative, International online platform
that connects Employers and Workers from around the world. Our
unique approach guarantee Employers that a task paid is a task
successfully done, while at the same time guaranteeing Workers
that a job completed is a job paid.
Just as its name suggest, the tasks assigned to Workers and
paid for by Employers are simple and quick, mostly completed in a
few minutes, thus, are called “micro jobs”. These tasks include
simple sign-ups, social bookmarking tasks, forum participation,
website visits, rating videos or articles, voting up contest
entries, adding comments, suggesting leads, creating backlinks,
writing reviews or articles, downloading applications and so much
more.
Joining Microworkers is free, and as an International site,
anyone from any country can be a member.
Who are the Employers?
Anyone can be an Employer. If you own an online business, a
blog, a contest entry or simply need referrals for your favorite
programs, Microworkers is definitely the place to come and have
your small tasks assigned to tens of thousands of active Workers
who are always ready to complete your job.
Whether you need traffic for your website, comments or a fresh
post for your blog, a review for your new product or put your
article to the front page of popular bookmarking sites, hiring
Workers from our program ensures you affordable, quick and top
quality results.
Who are the Workers?
Anyone can also be a Worker. You can be a stay-at-home mom, a
student who needs extra spending money, or if you simply love
helping others while making some extra cash alongside, this is the
place for you. Joining Microworkers as a Worker does not mean you
are employed by the site. Instead, you will be working as a
freelancer. With that, you can work as much or as little as you
want. At the same time, your potential for earning is also
limitless since you can accept all the jobs you believe you are
capable of completing, and get paid for it.
Can I be a Worker and Employer at
the same time?
Absolutely. Signing up to Microworkers allows you take “micro
jobs”. At the same time, when you have job
campaigns you wish to run, you can use the same account to do so.
You simply have to click on the Start a
Campaign option, and post your job. What’s more, you can use your
earnings as a Worker to fund your campaign
as an Employer.

I am a Worker...
Can I have more than one account?
No. There is no need to
maintain more than one account and it is against Microworkers’
Guidelines. If you've lost your login information, you can request
to have it sent to your Email address. If you are caught having
more than one account, your account(s) will be terminated, your IP
address(es) will be banned, your payments will be forfeited and
you can no longer participate in Microworkers’ program in the
future.
How do I earn money?
If you wish to look for
“micro jobs”, click on the Available Jobs link and browse through
the hundreds of listed tasks. Each task will display a set of
instructions, the time to complete it and the amount you will earn
for finishing the job. If you believe you can finish the task,
click on I accept this job and the page will display a form where
you can enter the proof required by the Employer. Otherwise, click
on Not interested in this job.
What is a Success
Rate and why do I need to maintain it?
The Microworkers Success
Rate ensures Employers that they get quality results from the
campaigns they are running. The feature prevents workers from
posting spam or fake proofs, and low-quality output of the tasks
they perform. As a Worker, you must maintain your actual Success
rate (1) above 75% at all times.
Temporary Success rate (2) is real-time rate used to determine how
many jobs you can accept per day.
Poorly performed tasks
will give you a not satisfied rating and will pull your Success
Rate down. To maintain a high Success Rate, make sure to accept
only tasks you can finish.
I have been misrated
by my Employer. What should I do?
If you believe you have
been misrated for a job properly
completed, let us know and we will look into the issue. Just open
task details page and click on the "Submit a Complain" link. After
reviewing your claims, we will credit your account with the amount
due to you. Otherwise, if the Employer misrated you for an
appropriate reason, you will not be credited. Microworkers will
maintain a fair approach in dealing with work disputes and will be
looking after to what is best for both Employers and Workers.
Where can I view the
jobs I have completed?
Once the Worker submits
a proof, the job will appear in the list of Tasks I finished.
Tasks not yet rated by Campaign owners (Employers) will show a
gray icon. Tasks rated with Satisfied appear with green icon.
Tasks rated with Not satisfied will display a red icon.
Where can I view my
earnings and account activity?
If you want to view your
account transactions, click on the My Account tab. The page will
display your personal information, account details, current
balance, referral bonuses and the transaction history which lists
all the payments for your finished “micro jobs”.
To view your withdrawal
history, click on the Withdraw tab from the top menu. All
withdrawals with the corresponding Date, Withdrawal method, Status
and Amount will be listed in the page.
How and when do I get
paid?
Once the Employer
reviews your submitted task and approves it, the amount assigned
for that particular job is automatically credited to your account
balance. If Employer forgets to rate tasks, they will be
automatically closed by the system in 168 hours and will be rated
"Satisfied". Likewise, the money will be deposited in your
account. No task will remain open for a long period of time.
When your earnings reach
$9, you will be allowed to place a withdrawal request. To do so,
click on the Withdraw tab from the top menu, then click on the
Place a new Withdrawal Request link. You can choose a withdrawal
method between Moneybookers or Alertpay, as well as the
amount you only wish to withdraw.
Payments are processed
within 30 days after placing a withdrawal request. More payment
options will be available in the future. Announcements will be
made once they are implemented.
Can I use my earnings
to run my own campaign?
Certainly. Simply go to
your My Campaigns page, click on the Start a Campaign option, and
post your job.

I am an
Employer...
How do I start my Campaign?
Go to your My Campaigns page,
click on the Start a Campaign option, and post your job. You can
choose to run your campaign to US Workers or International
Workers. Then, select a category for your campaign, put in the
number of minutes a Worker must need to finish the job and the
number of positions you are willing to pay for. The page
automatically displays the total cost of your campaign for you to
make adjustments, if necessary. To describe your campaign, put
in an appropriate Title, a list of instructions for the Workers to
follow and the proof you require to ensure the job is completed.
All campaigns submitted are reviewed for approval before displayed
to the Workers. Be sure to include all details about the campaign
with clear and easy to understand steps. What is a Campaign
Speed? The “Speed” box is where you can indicate how fast
you want your campaign to run. This is one of the best features of
Microworkers. You can choose values between 1 to 1000 (1 being the
slowest and 1000 as the fastest), which you can modify anytime
during your campaign. This feature gives you more control over
your campaigns and the results you expect. To make sure your
campaigns run just how you want it to, Microworkers even
implemented a Pause and Resume option. How do I fund my
campaign? Click on the “Deposit” link from the top menu. You
can fund your campaign using any of these available payment
processors: - Credit Card
- Alertpay
- Moneybookers There is no deposit fee. Money will be
available in your account immediately after you confirm the
transaction. If you would like to deposit large amount of money,
please contact us. I wish to add more positions to my
currently running Campaign No problem. Microworkers has a
wonderful feature that allows Employers to add more positions to
their campaign even while it is on progress. That will save you a
lot of time and trouble of having to begin another campaign and
wait for it to be approved. Simply access your campaigns page,
choose the campaign you want to add positions to and click on the
Add positions link. Then, you can type in the number of positions
you wish to add. How do I Rate my Workers? Microworkers
has implemented a system that allows checking and rating campaigns
more manageable for you. Go to your campaigns page and choose
the campaign you wish to review. A list of all submitted proofs
will be displayed in a single page. To view all submitted proofs
in one screen, click on Expand. You do not have to individually
open each task to check the proof. With the Select All box,
approving tasks by the hundreds can be done with just a single
click. However, should you prefer to approve each task one by one,
you can always do so. A “Satisfied” rating automatically
transfers the fund you have set aside to each individual Worker’s
account. You would only be paying for tasks you rate “Satisfied”.
No tasks should remain open for a long period of time. If you
forget to rate your Workers’ tasks, they will automatically be
closed by the system in 168 hours and will be rated "Satisfied".
What happens if I decide to stop my campaign? Should you
want to end your campaign even before all available positions has
run out, simply click on the Stop link in your campaigns page.
When that happens, funds for the unused positions will be credited
back to your account. I still have questions If you
