Yes they do. I am from the Uk and I received a payment from them last month. However as a user above said I prefer helium. I wrote two articles yesterday and earned $2 upfront pay. I also earn from the pageviews from these articles. Everyday now I rate several articles too and soon I will qualify for the monthly rating bonus of $3. Helium pays international members when they reach $25. They have many writing contests, and a marketplace feature where publishers can buy your articles.

However I have just read an AC user who makes a $100 a month from pageviews alone!! I dont know anyone who does this on helium!!! I reckon AC articles get viewed more and get more pageviews but dont pay international members upfront, whereas helium pays upfront payment but doesnt get viewed as much. Why not try both. You may get paid by AC first as they have a lower payout.

They do. They pay through paypal so if you have one then they will pay you no matter what. They pay you for the article and then the views per thing. not just views. So with each article you write you can make up to 2.00 or more on the article. Its a great site to join. Hope you like it!

yes dude.. i heard about that. but it seems they are not paying international writers as they pay u.s citizens. i dont find it fair since writers should be equal everywhere. so i am only working on helium.
thank you

Helium is a good site, yes, but so is AC. In AC although they don't pay upfront for international users, they do have payments for page views which I find to be good enough. I'm also from the Philippines but I have already $2.09 in my account at AC, but I'm not complaining as I just posted my articles and that's it. It is a good source of passive income for life, especially if they increase in number over time. Imagine having a hundred articles there and each of them earning let's say $1 a month, multiply that with 100 so you get $100 dollars...!!! Good luck.

Hello, I have been getting paid from AC normally, but I read something about once you reach $600 you have to fill out a form and it's only for U.S. citizens so I don't know about that. Oh and you can try Platinum Lounge and Pickjack the links are on my profile.
