Read all the reviews and talked to Claude, Grok, and Gemini. Everything says to stay away from them. Thank you for posting about your experience, guys!

I worked as a pro translator for a week but never got paid because I never reached the minimum 50,000 points to cash out. Their policy to "pay with points" is a SCAM. Each translation request pays 4 points on average, so you need to complete 12,500 requests to reach the 50,000 points needed to cash out. However, the website doesn't have that amount of projects available, so translators aren't allowed to reach those 50,000 points and basically work for free.

Scam!Wouldn't advise any freelance translator to work with them

I was invited for their seasonal project for my native language to ENG. At first, it was good because I'm always the one who loves doing Human Translation, the points was good and the payment was consider okay, although the rate was consider low. Then, on the next seasonal project, they're start accusing me of using machine translation, probably because I was trying to get 10000 -15000 words translated in 3 days and gain too many points, Feel offended by it, because I pull all-nighters for 3 days to finished it (I need to fulfill the quota in those 3 days, because I don't have spare time for the next incoming 4 days due to personal matter). And they're accusing me for machine translation, and deduct (so many %) from total point I have gather. At least they have a courtesy to email me first before deducting the points and they also saying that they have so many proof on my violation. Yeah, sure whatever makes them happy to use as an excuse to deduct my points. In my defense it was Human translation and I pull all-nighters to finished everything on time. It's not my fault if the machine also using the similar or same words or creating the same sentences. What weird way to accusing someone and just to using that to deducts or robbing their points. For anyone who's is professional translator that that rarely using any CAT Tools or doing human translation, I wouldn't advise you all to work with them, their standard definitely won't align with your purpose or worth. They just want free translation done for them and wasting your time.

I should have trusted the online reviews, as it turned out to be a scam. First of all, they have a weird way of paying their contributors, as you need to "collect points" to spend on their store to buy paypal rewards... But the fact is, the points you collect are based on how many points they decide to award you after you've submitted the translation. I tried with one translation, which took me around 1 hour to complete, and after more than a month I've ben awarded with... 0 points! Right, basically I worked for free, and they DON'T tell you why you failed the task, you just see a generic "fail". I suspected it was going to end like this, so I didn't invest too much time on in.

They asked me to do a test for getting into the role, and asked my ID, then they never response me. I just hope this rude company will not use my ID to do something bad. PLESE BE CAREFUL.

They took all the work without paying for anything. They trap poor freelancers from 3rd world countries to get their work done and then they don't pay

Totally scam. They don't value your work and time. I only got paid once and a misery. They paid me only once at 0.01 USD per word, (nobody pays that and it is nonsense) that are the fees they handle and they put you lots of excuses for not paying because the terms and conditions are crazy, they will only pay you if the work you did meets their critería, doesn't matter your time and quality. It was a long and hard work and they only paid me 20 USD. Last time I did another job with the same fee, a really long and tiring work, they were supposed to pay me 38 USD on July 12th and they did not pay me, because although I did the job and it was well done, I said I quit because I didn't want to be a slave. The project took me a lot of time, they still owe me money, I know that they will not pay me. Don't work for them, they are scammers. They play with people's necessity, they are abusers, exploiters.
