How this is worked out

You are paid per qualified read — a reader who spent at least 30 seconds with your piece and got at least 50% of the way through. Casual clicks do not count, in either direction.

The default rate is Ksh 10.00 a read. An editor sets the rate on each piece when they accept it, and a change applies from that point forward — it never rewrites a month you have already been shown.
