Rollover

Don’t forget, in addition to the Weekly Bonus, you can qualify for ROLLOVER by completing a rolling average of 500 or 1000 HITs!

When you qualify for Rollover, ALL your HITs are bonused at a higher rate rather than building from the starting bonus tier rates! (Rollover rates and details)

Rollover Rates!

  • ** Complete an average of 1000 transcription HITs each week over two consecutive weeks, and start your third week at $0.05 Per HIT pay rate rather than start over!** 
  • * Complete an average of 500 transcription HITs each week over two consecutive weeks, and start your third week at $0.04 Per HIT pay rate rather than waiting until your 100th HIT for a bonus rate!*
  • Rollover bonus rewarded on a rolling two-week average basis, you can start at the highest bonus rate EVERY week after your first two weeks!

Example:

  • A 2-week rolling  average of 500 HITs  earns $0.04 on ALL APPROVED HITs the following week.
  • A 2-week rolling average of  1000 HITs  earns $0.05 on ALL APPROVED HITs the following week.
  • As long as you maintain an average of 500 HITs… the rollover continues!
