If you have “speedy fingers” and would like to make some extra money typing from home, TranscribeMe could help you do just that. You do not have to have experience working as a transcriber to give it a go!
These Transcriber roles are independent contractor (“freelance”) positions and the company states, “earnings starting at $15-$22 per audio hour and top monthly earnings at $2,200 (average monthly earnings are $250). We also offer advancement opportunities for our Special Teams, such as Medical and Legal, which pay at even higher rates!”
Please bear in mind, “pay per audio hour” is not the same as “pay per hour.” Pay per audio hour indicates the amount you will earn for each hour of audio you transcribe. For example, if you are paid $20 per audio hour, that means you’ll earn $20 for every hour of audio you transcribe. Depending on your typing speed and the quality of the audio you are typing from, it may take two or more hours to transcribe one hour of audio.
Current and former workers rate TranscribeMe 3.7 out of 5 stars on Glassdoor and 3.5 out of 5 on Indeed, so it appears people are pretty pleased with the opportunity.
Further, “There are absolutely no fees involved in the training or registration.”
Here’s what the company has to say about these roles:
“Highest Pay
