  1. Directory information updated · Payment

    Microworkers withdrawal minimums and Brazil PIX fee added

    The directory adds the documented USD withdrawal minimums: $9 for Airtm, PayPal, Skrill and Onto; $10 for Transpay in selected countries; and $20 for Payoneer. Brazil PIX requests have a $20 minimum plus a 10% processing fee, requiring $22 in available earnings for a $20 request. The separate 10% charge on satisfactory-task earnings remains distinct.

    Scope: This expands the directory's payment information; it does not claim that the general withdrawal thresholds changed on 2 October. The FAQ is undated. The PIX article was published on 18 September 2026, but this combined directory update asserts no exact platform effective date. These are published rules, not verified net receipts or payout guarantees; live account forms and processor/exchange fees were not tested.

  2. Platform change · Applications

    MTurk permanently closed on 30 September 2026

    Amazon confirms that Mechanical Turk permanently closed on 30 September 2026 and HIT submission ended. The directory now treats the earlier worker account-request procedure as historical.

    Scope: The effective closure date is stated in Amazon's official FAQ. This does not mean every historical account or support page is inaccessible, and it does not assert that all outstanding payments have been received.

  3. Directory information updated · Payment

    Sahara token-claim timing and limits clarified

    The directory adds Sahara's documented claim rules under USD1 and SAH: the seven-day lock begins at backend pool setup, not task completion, and can continue while funding or approval is pending. Claims take the full available amount of the selected token on BSC, with gas paid by the user. Partner-token records cannot be claimed through DSP.

    Scope: This adds detail to the directory's earlier launch-period reward information; it does not establish when Sahara changed these rules. The official claim page is undated. No fiat cash-out route, cash minimum, guaranteed token value or actual payout timing is established, and app access and wallet claims were not tested.
