I keep track on my phone with a "tips calculator" and put in my PE every day including bonuses. I think MTS doesn't include bonus, and the email includes bonus + things that have cleared only. I always have 3 different numbers lol

You could track your with withdrawals daily like in a spread sheet that automatically calculates your weekly total. Or the other option is use the data Hit Tracker just get your data on Sundays and the 1st day of the month

I've started copying over the Amazon Payments info into a Google Sheet. BUT for goals etc I track on the tip calculator on my phone, it keeps everything neat and it shows me what I've got to for the whole week (my goal is $200+/week so it's just easier idk)

But uhh yeah, everyone I've talked to about trying to figure out how to accurately track earnings etc who doesn't work on MTurk is totally baffled by how messy and nonsensical it all is lol. They're all like "But isn't Amazon like a multi billion dollar company? They can't just... send you th
