Before you apply

  • Check that the payment method works where you live, on the payment service's own site. A platform can only pay you through a method available in your country.
  • Most platforms pay contractors, not employees: expect a tax form and an ID check before your first payment.
  • Never pay to join, to take a test or to be paid. See how to spot fake AI training jobs, and use only the platforms' official sites.
  • Every platform's own payment page has the final word. See how each platform pays, platform by platform.
