When a user asks a question, they pay a fee to ask it. That fee can be anywhere from $5 to $90. Some users join as a member to ask unlimited questions and pay a monthly membership fee instead. As a JustAnswer expert, you can see the fee the user is paying before answering the question.
After you answer a question, the user then decides if they accept your answer and will leave you a review. Once you receive a positive rating from the user, you earn a commission from the fee.
As a new expert, you’ll earn 20% of whatever the user pays. Over time, though, with enough consistently high ratings, you can work your way up to 50% of the fee. JustAnswer pays via PayPal, and you need at least $20 in your account before you can withdraw the funds.
