Hello, I am a new comer to FusionCash. I signed onto a task on FusionCash that paid 50 cents per task.  I completed 100 tasks and when I looked on my account I was only paid $1.00  I looked on my Crowdflower account and that same task paid 1 cent per task but I did not sign on to complete it on Crowdflower. Please help.  I also have a screenshot of my task but the file is too large to post on this thread.  Thanks

You probably did a task that paid half a cent and not 50 cents

0.5 cents and 50 cents aren't the same thing

There's a "Note" on the right hand side of the Task page that reads:

"Tasks listed with a reward of "0.50 cents" are worth ½ of a cent, not 50 cents. They are credited in groups of 2 or more."

Thank you for that reply.  I suppose it was my misunderstanding.  The task clearly states 0.50 cents per task on FusionCash and .01 cents on Crowdflower.  So does that mean that on FusionCash for every 2 tasks I get .1 cent and on Crowdflower for every one task I get .1

Crowdflower doesn't directly pay us so what they have listed in the body of the task isn't what we're necessarily going to be paid. These tasks are offered on a variety of sites and many offer differing payouts for the same task. Individual sites do have some discretion of what they pay their users.

You'll see that occasionally on the tasks. I always assume the difference is what FC gets for hosting the tasks from CF. so if it says we would be paid 50 cents and FC lists it at 25 cents, they get the difference. I'm not sure if that's correct or always the case, but just my assumption.
