It looks like there is a new way to earn cash on Fusion Cash. It's called business card transcription and it is under the Tasks tab. Not really sure how fast you can earn cash this way or not.
-
I just noticed it too. It looks like you get to earn $0.01 per card you transcribe for each correct answer. Looks more like a you get paid to type. Very similar to data entry.

We must be good in word processing in order to this , am I right?

Not necessarily -- the speed of your typing will determine how much you can earn, but you can definitely participate no matter how fast or slowly you type.

Thanks for the information on the business card transcription, I had a chance to paricipate. I'm not sure how it's credited. :heart:

Thanks for adding another new way to make money! I'll definitely have to try this one out. I think this task might be more straightforward than most of the tasks.

Once per day, at 8am Pacific (11am Eastern), whatever you've earned for the past 24 hours gets credited.
8am Pacific is midnight in Japan, which is when they do their "daily processing" of credits.

Another great way to earn cash at Fusion Cash. So many option. I am sure some will earn lots. I am not a great typist so probably not my thing, but I am sure others will breeze thru! So many options here, something for everybody!

Thanks for the information, I'll definitely have to check this one out. It sounds like a task I'd enjoy doing.

Does this task count toward the task leaderboard? It seems like it's not reflected in my task total $ on the right of the screen.
-
;D Im wondering the same thing myself.
-
I did some of these today. I have a couple questions.
1. "Correct" answers. If you follow the directions, how can you have an incorrect answer? ;D
2. If any already filled in info is wrong or there is a typo, does it count against you? After all, you are unable to change it. If it counts against you, I don't think that's fair, do you?
3. What does it mean by "Rank?" Mine kept changing.
Thanks for the answers.

I just tried the new business card task.I think I'm going to need a lot more practice with this one.I spent an hour on it and had 43 correct answers (4c) out of 58 entries.I'll keep trying it.It doesn't really seem that difficult.
-
Sounds interesting. Gonna have to check it out. Thanks for the info. :thumbsup:

You'll earn 1¢ for every ten correct fields you transcribe. So if you enter 30 correct fields you earn $0.03
I was wondering when we get the credits?

Thanks for the answers.
1) If you make a typographical error in your entry, or transpose a digit in the phone number - stuff like that would be marked as an incorrect answer. Each card is transcribed by multiple people so errors like that can be caught. It usually gets confirmed/marked incorrect within a few minutes.
2) Since typos get caught and corrected by the system you needn't worry about this. It wouldn't be "held against you" except that you would not get credited for that particular field if you made a typo. In any case your stats in the panel (correct answers, entries done) get transferred to FC and reset to zero at 8am Pacific / 11am Eastern each day.
3) The rank can be a bit confusing because there's actually three different ones. On the main work page where you transcribe cards, there is a rank in the header. That rank is how you stack up against all other FC members working on cards that day since 8am. Then, if you click "Finish", a page pops up with two additional ranks: they are your monthly rank against all other FC members for both "correct answers" and "entries done".
Does this task count toward the task leaderboard? It seems like it's not reflected in my task total $ on the right of the screen.
It does not, but if we can bump up participation there's a good chance for an even better leaderboard promo, specific to the business card transcription task (in addition to the existing one for Crowdflower tasks). I also edited the Crowdflower tasks page to make it clear that the leaderboard is only for Crowdflower tasks.
You'll earn 1¢ for every ten correct fields you transcribe. So if you enter 30 correct fields you earn $0.03
I was wondering when we get the credits?
8am Pacific / 11am Eastern each day, 7 days a week. If you transcribe 10 fields at 7:59am your credit time will be just a few minutes. On the other hand, if you transcribe 10 fields at 8:05am, your credit time will be 23 hours and 55 minutes. If you scroll down to the bottom of the transcription page, you will see a countdown until the next reset/credit.
Great questions, everyone. As an aside, we are aware that some of the interface and instructions texts need some polishing and checking, and we are working with the task provider towards that end. We're also hoping to get faster crediting (hopefully instant) at some point in the future. Achieving these things is out of our hands so we ask for your patience as we make the most of this new & unique opportunity.

I am so excited about this....I love doing this kind of stuff!!!!!
-
I haven't tried it but let me know how it is.
-
I am going to have to check this one out. Thanks to the original poster for letting us know. I forget to check for new tasks every day.
-
I have done several of the Business Card Transcriptions and they pay well. Thanks FC for the opportunity to make more money. You are the best out there. Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. I had my Thanksgiving dinner Saturday. I work Thanksgiving at Walmart a so have to have it when we can all get together.
-
This sounds interesting. I'm gonna check it out. :moneymouth:
-
I haven't seen that offer. In my experience those tasks aren't worth it. They take forever and rarely credit. I just watch videos!
-
How do you know how many you got wrong? Do you have to keep track of input? Can be easy but confusing if you don't know what you did wrong. GodBless

There are tallies across the top of the "work" page. You don't have to keep track.

I've seen this task too. I was going to try to do it the other day but I didn't have time to read all of the directions first. I will try again when I have more time. It does look interesting though.
-
I have tried to do the Business Card Transcription and I check the agreement box but when I click on the next button it doesn't do anything it won't go to the task to do. Has anyone else had this problem? I would like to try it and see if I can do it or not. Any idea's on how to get to the next page or to get the next button to work?
-
While individually it seems quick and easy, it just seems to take a lot of them to actually be able to earn anything.
-
I :heart: the business card transcription. Been doing it the past couple of days, but today it says there is no work to be done :(
-
Wow, I haven't seen this task yet, and am so glad to have found this thread. I'm excited to give it a try. Maybe that typing course in high school on those old fashioned type writers will finally pay off. (It's so much easier to type today with the ability to correct our mistakes!) I love that FC is providing new and different ways to earn money. But what is even more impressive is the fact that Admin comes into the forum to answer questions and clear up details, answering individual questions personally! What other money making website does that!!! I hope this task sticks around because my spare time will be limited until the first of the year.
-
I have had problems with this one. I completed something like 80 entries but only 50 were correct. I may have missed one or two, but not 30 entries... I would rather do radio loyalty...
-
There seem to be some problems with how exactly you need to enter a phone number of company name that is falsly marking some entries wrong. I have done a lot of these and you have to plan on only getting 75-80% correct.
It would also be great if they would eliminate the cards that already have seveal fields already grayed out.
-
I checked this feature out and it is okay, but seems too time consuming in my opinion.
-
I don't think at 1 cent per 10 fields it's going to be better than other ways to make money on here -- if it ever got to 1 cent per 1 field than it would be awesome.
-
I Tried This Once And Didn't Get Credit. I Will Just Stick With And Easy Tasks And Offers :peace:
-
gotta check this one out thanks
-

I have tried this business transction but have trouble trying to get started seems you have
to wait for it to reset :(
-
I just noticed the new offer with the Business Card Transcription. I am still trying to get use to how to complete this offer correctly. Thank you FC for a new offer.
-
I don't really have time to get into this, but it seems like a time consuming offer for a minimal payout.
