I am planning to join microworkers because I always hear so many good things about this site. One of the requirements is to create an AlertPay or Moneybookers account. I already have a UnionBank debit card. I am from the Philippines. Which is better? Thank you!

Does it mean to say AlertPay does not require manual verification, macanan? I was thinking it's microworkers who will be sending the pin, and we'll activate our microworkers account through that pin. I thought AlertPay and Moneybookers are for payment alone like PayPal.

moneybookera dn microworkers are different institutions. microworkers uses manual verifications by sending pin to my home, and so does moneybookers. so, i got two letters of pin, one from microworkers and one from moneybookers. it takes 3-4 weeks to reach my home

I thing alert pay is better payment processor than money bookers, but now a day their is some problem is going on alert pay payment processor like VISA and Mastero Credit card not working their, but you have just withdrawn your amount from microworkers through alert pay which fees is higher and also now a day alert pay has also stop sending cheque to the address of payee which is less costly than bank wire, so my opinion you may go through moneybookers.

I am from India and working at microworkers. I am getting an average of 10 Dollars monthly from microworkers. My payment processor is alertpay. But in alertpay there is no bank transfer to India. The withdrawing method is wire transfer and their fee for that is $15. So I am not using the alertpay money for funding on purchases from the online. I am not registered with money bookers and thinking to do so.
