Hello friends! This is P. S. Rawat, admin of this website. I’m here to review another online platform which claims providing money making opportunity.
In this post, I’m going to review Picoworkers as an Indian user’s perspective. I’ll explain- whether is it a good earning platform for Indians or not? If yes then I’ll provide a guidance for- How to use it in a better way.
What is Picoworkers.com?
Picoworkers is a web platform which works like a marketplace for employers and workers. Employers offers paid short tasks(mini jobs) to the workers and after successful submission of the task the amount paid to the his/her picoworkers account. When worker’s account balance reached to the minimum withdraw limit, he/she can withdraw the balance. Simple!
Is it legit?
Yes, I think so. Picoworkers is online since 2013. They’re a paying to their members. Their user base is increasing day by day. Yes, there were some issues which i think recently resolved. I’ll talk about it later in this post.

There are 2 types of jobs available in picoworkers-
- SMALL JOBS – These jobs are normal mini tasks which can be done in few minutes. Like signup, visit website, app download etc.
PROJECTS – These are long term jobs. Employer hire workers for long time running projects. Basically, These projects consist several small jobs. Employer gave guidance to complete those jobs on specific times.(Update – 2)
How a Indian user can withdraw money?
Picoworkers minimum withdrawal limit is $5 excluding the fee. It means if withdrawing fee is 5% for chosen payment option then you can withdraw funds only after you have earned $5.25 ($5+$0.25) .
Picoworkers gives a signup bonus. Do not confuse get confused with it. This bonus can only be used to “start a job”. In other words, If you become a employer and offer jobs for workers then only you can use that bonus. Hope it clears.
Now come to what payment options picroworkers offers. At the time of writing this post picoworkers is offering withdrawal through 3 options. Litecoin, Ethereum and Paypal.
Litecoin and Ethereum are cryptocurrencies. Unfortunately, cryptocurrencies are banned in India. I don’t know for how long. But good news is Paypal is available. So in short words, A Indian user can withdraw money using paypal only. (Update – 2)

RECENT UPDATES
Update – 2 (09 March 2020)
- Project jobs are removed from picoworkers.
- We are getting feedback from users that they are facing issues while trying to withdraw earnings through Paypal. If you’re facing same issue, we suggest you to withdraw earnings via Litecoin. We explained it above.
Update – 1 (22 September 2019)
There were 2 recent changes in picoworkers:
- Picoworkers had a bad reputation for late payment in the past. It used to take more than one months to withdraw payments before. But now they did change their policy. Now payment have been sending out quicker. Now you can see how many payments in line and an average time of getting payment.
- Also, They asked for national ids for verification before at the time of your first withdraw. But now that policy completely removed, too. Now you don’t need to share your ID Card.
I’m telling you these facts because I don’t know whether these changes are temporary or permanent. Please keep these things in mind. And withdraw as soon as you reach minimum limit.
Tips and suggestions for better experience
- Do not create more than one account.
“Small jobs” are highly recommended. Ongoing projects are comparatively hard to catch and they are little bit complected.(Update – 2)- Success rate is very important. Read the instruction carefully before doing a task.

Dear Manasa,
First of all sorry for late reply. We don’t know you already got a solution for your issue or not. But if you’re still waiting. Then – 1. Do you know why your paypal account is blocked to send payment. Is your paypal account verified and pan card information is attached to it? Did you get any payment before in paypal from any other way?
If yes, then issue is from picoworkers side. One more thing that cryptocurrencies are banned in India at this time. There is no way to get payment using crypto.
Your only option is Paypal. After reading your comment we are getting doubts on picroworkers intentions. We are going to research it on our side. Let us know your progress.
Thanks!
manasa I also faced the exact problem . I lost my $ 10.07 as i tried with litecoin value on which I have no Idea at all . so I asked picoworkers to cancel my existing picoworkers account and htey did it in 3 hours . then I created another account paypal( customer care) says that I need to have business account to proceed with international payments . I am very confused now . that is why I am here . please mail me I f you get any solution ( rathanmara1@gmail.com)
Dear Ms Manasa, to add some more points to the admin’s reply and to explain you in a way elaborate than him, let me go one by one 🙂
First of all, no one on earth can block your PayPal account, only PayPal can do that. But that’s not the case with you I believe, and for that matter, you have to have a business account with PayPal to receive payments and individual accounts are for sending only. And your account should be PAN verified(for that you need to link your PAN with PayPal while creating the account).
Secondly, about the cryptos, cryptocurrencies(colloquially known as cryptos) are digital assets that can be bought, stored, and can be traded like gold in return for fiat. And for that too, you need to create an account in an online crypto exchange in order to get your money to your bank account. For that, firstly, you have to create an account with any of those exchanges and you should upload your KYC documents(PAN, Aadhaar, and a picture of yourself) in order to get your account KYC compliant. Then only you can transfer the money to your bank account. And remember one thing that cryptos are often getting banned by our authorities in order to reduce money laundering. But now, SC has lifted the ban. So cryptocurrencies are legal in India. Period!
I have my paypal account( personal account) which is linked to a bank account which also has been confirmed by bank . now do I need to do any other thing in order to get my funds transferred from picoworkers to paypal account . because If paypal once denies a payment from picoworkers ,they do not provide me paypal services any more . already I lost my $10.07 ( my hard earned money ) also I dreamed so much out of it ????
Hi Rathan, sorry to hear you lost your hard earned money though you need to know that litecoin, ethereum(eth) and the likes are cryptocurrencies which can be withdrawn to your cryptocurrency wallet like WazirX, Zebpay and the others. But before you proceed, you have to have an account in those crypto exchanges and with KYC compliance(PAN, Aadhaar, and a picture of yourself holding your Aadhaar). And please do remember one thing that when you initiate the process, please enter only the particular wallet id(which can be found at “funds” section) like BTC, ETH, USDT or any other crypto you have chosen.
And for the PayPal question, you need to have a “business account” to receive payments(and your account should be PAN verified), and personal accounts are for only sending payments, example for instance, like shopping online.
Hope this helps. Cheers 🙂
