Philippines Compensation:
Imagine making some extra spending money by answering questions while you sit in the comfort of your home. That’s what kgb Special Agents do. They use their superior question answering skills to earn extra dough just by being smart – and get paid for the questions that they answer.
For purposes of computing compensation, agents are paid on a per second basis based on actual work or per valid answer, whichever is higher. Actual work is deemed to start when agents take in or handle a query from the queue in the system and ends when the action is completed, i.e. when they have validly sent the answer to the query of the customer.
The amount of pay for every valid answer to the query of the customer depends upon the working method employed, i.e. search completed to provide answer to the query earns PhP3.40, and validation of answer that is provided by the Company’s system earns PhP1.70.
The amount of pay for actual work performed shall be based on the prevailing minimum wage per second.
Due to our weekly shift selection philosophy, we intend to keep the questions coming, so that you are busy earning while you are logged in.
Philippines Payment Calendar:
Payments are direct deposited into Special Agent’s accounts based upon the normal kgb_ Philippines pay cycle.
