Picoworkers was a really great website and a good alternative for mTurk and Microworkers. Since the beginning, they had certain issues with paying their workers. There was always a small delay in payments, but it would eventually get resolved and the payments would continue to be regular.
Throughout the last year, they gained a great reputation and their ratings were getting better and better. With more visits, they gained more workers but even more employers since their costs for mini-jobs were a lot cheaper than on other websites. It was going so well for this website that they even employed new members to work for them.
Even with all this great news, their payment process was slower and slower. Instead of 15 days, many of the workers now waited for 30 days or more and that was a big issue. Even with that delay, workers were being paid. As time went by, the waiting time became longer and longer.
Today many of the workers wait for 2 months or even more for their payments. Their support won't answer the questions regarding payments and on their facebook page, there are no new pieces of information.
I personally have been waiting for my payment for more than 2 months now, and on the withdrawal page, you can see that there are over 300 pending payments.
If you're looking for a good survey website try MarketAgent.
Established in 2001 this website has 18 years long history. Regular payments, frequent surveys for all countries!
