Mturk only pay cash only for US and India citizen. Members who resident outside US and India only get gift certificates. Read their guidelines please ....

@Olleenz - oh! I see. so meaning that gift certificates made from your earnings can be exchanged to a product available in amazon? Sorry if my question is a little bit odd.

Hello giepuz, You are referring to Amazon Mechanical Turk right? If yes, then I think they only pay Amazon gift certs for us here in the Phils. That is one main reason why I stopped working for them. Since the tasks payment are very low, it is hard to accumulate an amount which is good enough to buy something from Amazon. I hope they consider us for cash payment in the near future

Haha, you know what I might be crazy because after saying that about Amturk, I logged in again and started doing a task which is very easy, I just needed to find the contact email on a given website. Now, I am thinking of being active there once again Sorry if I am confusing you. I am just one confused girl
