How much micro1 pays
The figures in the box above are calculated live from the micro1 roles we currently list, using only rates the platform publishes, without conversion or estimates. Ranges are usually set per person, by experience, language and location, so the top of a range is a ceiling rather than a promise. Compare roles in the same unit, per hour or per task, and read our guide to advertised rates vs actual earnings.
Who can apply
