    Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

    We are delighted to announce that a new simplified Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) payment disbursement option will be available on December 15, 2019. This new option will enable you to have your MTurk payments deposited directly into your US bank account on a regular schedule. You can adjust your payment settings to occur every 7, 14, 30 or 60 days depending on the cadence that works best for you. We encourage you to set up direct transfer through the MTurk website starting December 15, 2019 as we will discontinue the Amazon Payments disbursement option on January 15, 2020 in lieu of direct US bank account transfers for eligible MTurk Workers.

    We will provide additional information about this new payment process in December. If you have any questions, please contact support at [email protected].

    Thank you for helping MTurk grow and have a great day!

    Sincerely,

    The MTurk Team

    A guy on the mturk reddit says he set his to 3 days, so those aren't the only options, FYI.

    I bet they are rolling it out slowly so that one dude that keeps the server room cool doesn't pass out from exhaustion.

    It's hard fanning each server

    Now I'm terrified I'll somehow click it sometime over the next month. Still not there for me, but I just know I'm going to end up signing up accidentally.

    Apparently you don't have to verify your bank account though? Just enter account # and routing # and you're good to go? That seems pretty easy.
    Each server? You're giving MTurk too much credit. I bet the entire system runs off a Chromebook or something.
