QUESTIONS

Yes, and it is shown before you confirm. Cash withdrawals use a tiered fee that drops as the amount grows — 7% between $50 and $200, 5% between $200 and $1,000, and 4% above $1,000 (smaller cash-outs are higher). Gift cards carry a flat $0.50 fee regardless of value.

Two concrete things, both from Microworkers' own documentation: there is no $9 minimum on TaskerData, and there is no verification PIN mailed to your physical address (which on Microworkers can take one to four weeks to arrive before your first withdrawal). You can also take payouts as gift cards, and your fee falls on larger cash-outs.

It depends on the amount and method, and their rates change — so check their current withdrawal page rather than trusting an old figure. On smaller cash-outs the two are broadly comparable; on larger ones TaskerData's tiered fee drops to as low as 4%. Where TaskerData clearly wins is the lack of a minimum and the lack of a mailed activation PIN.

Amazon, Apple, Google Play, Steam, and Walmart gift cards, each for a flat $0.50 fee regardless of the card value. On a $100 card that works out to just 0.5%.

Microworkers has a very large, long-established worker base and highly granular country targeting. If raw pool size or a workflow you have used for years is the deciding factor, it remains a solid option. For a smoother cash-out experience and gift-card payouts, TaskerData is the friendlier home.
