Gift Certificates Anyone?

Will you by any chance be writing about mturk? I think this is one of the biggest sites that actually use that kind of payment and frankly it's all black magic to me how it works there...

Hi again, Actually yes I am referring to Mturk. I would have personally preferred if they paid by check or paypal to international members cause I could always use the extra money in my pocket, but since this is not the case you just do the next best thing and try to make it work in your favour anyway. I'm not sure what you mean by it is all black magic? do you mean you don't understand how to use the site? It's pretty easy, there are tons of HITs to choose from and you take one which is best suited to you. For example if you like to write articles there are hits that pay up to $12.00 for an article on a specific topic for about 600 words. Of course they might have a few guidelines but nothing serious. Then there are the simpler HITs like polls, surveys, blog comments. It is up to you to decide if the price is worth the work. When you accept a HIT you have a specific amount of time to work on it and I would suggest accepting the HIT before you start to write an article cause sometimes all the HITs would get taken before you can get a chance at it. After this, it is up to them if they accept or reject the HIT and this determines if you get paid. Those one cent HITs add up (believe me) I do alot of those while mylotting. As for transferring money from Mturk to your gift certificate account. I made a few screen shots of how to do it the other day but was waiting for July to put it up. But you just go to your Account Settings tab and you will see the option to withdraw there. The amount is immediately deposited into your gift certificate balance so you don't have to wait to go shopping. It only dawned on me how useful this could be when I decided I'd use some of the Mturk money I made to buy my friend a birthday present. I got free shipping on the item too! So, I have now decided to keep building up my account and buy stuff I can't get here or even if I an get it here I won't have to pull out money from my pocket and also I will use it to buy my friends and family Christmas and birthday presents. I think it came in very handy! Oh thank you for the best response by the way. Hope this helps!

Hmm I have to say you got me confused. I am in Europe and I order of Amazon.com all the time. That's why I know they ship to my country and that's what started that whole wondering thing in the first place.....
