These are typical ranges, not a promise of a specific rate. Your exact pay is set when you are matched with a US client and depends on the role, your experience, and that client's needs.

If you are searching for work from home jobs that pay weekly, this is exactly how ours works.
Weekly pay and bonus structure explained
Your base rate is set when you are matched with a US client, based on the role and your experience, inside the ranges above. From there, you are paid every week in USD, not monthly, not "whenever it clears." On top of your base rate, many roles earn performance bonuses tied to real results: calls booked, deals closed, or tasks completed on time. The bonus adds to your pay, it never replaces your hourly rate. Curious how matching works before you get to this stage? See how it works, from application to your first paycheck.

Bonuses reward strong performance.
Hit your numbers, or go beyond what the role asks, and bonuses add to your weekly pay. Always on top of your base rate, never instead of it.
