    How much bonus have you received from the requestors. I was wondering what is highest anyone has received. Sometimes hits do not mention any bonus, but on approval you have received some bonus. Has this happened with you.

    Some of the audio is bad, but some pay about $3-$4 incl bonuses.

    I've had great luck doing "write 100 words for a vacation destination" they pay you 5 cents after 5 and 10 cents after 10 submissions and since there were very many of them and they were easy I wracked up $5 in bonuses just from those guys.

    work for questionswami.

    If you wish to get easy bonus, work for questionswami. He asks you to write about various travel spots, you write 120 words you are paid the normal rate usually between 20 cents to 50 cents, write 250 words or more you get 30 cents bonus, complete 5 hits for him, you get 5 cents on each new hit and so on. I have done some of his hits, my work has been appreciated, I have got bonuses from him. Stick to his instructions while working, you will earn well.

    My current bonus amounts to $58.43. I often wonder which Requester is giving it as not all the Hits mention that there'll be bonus for the task done. Once I inquired mturk about it (that is, how to know which Requester has given the bonus) using their "Contact Us" form to which they replied that there's no way of knowing it; it depends upon the wish of the Requester to let you know or not.

    I've only got one bonus in these two months since I'm working on mTurk, a $1.00 bonus to be more precise. I must admit that I haven't worked too much, though.

    You can find out who gave you the bonus by going to account settings and checking the link of transaction history. All payments to your account are listed here, usually with the name of the requestor and the date when it was paid.
    I also got to know about this feature from this forum, I think Andy mentioned it somewhere.
