The list of tasks shows the tasks available to you at the moment. Each of them has a short description and price. Choose a task and complete it.
Training tasks are generally not paid for. They are used to teach Tolokers to perform a particular kind of task and select those who show the best results. You get access to the main, paid task only after you successfully complete the training.
The cost of the task directly depends on its complexity and how much time it takes to complete it. Simple tasks that don't require special skills and a lot of time cost less than more complex ones. But the better you cope with them, the higher their cost will be and the more chances there are to get a reward from the requester.
The maximum earnings displayed in the task card show how much three of the most active Tolokers earn on average per day.

According to the User Agreement, tasks in Toloka may contain “adult” (including pornographic) content. Your actions in Toloka that have to do with evaluating “adult content” don't violate the law. The Toloka service operates in accordance with the legislation of the Swiss Confederation and is aimed, among other things, at identifying materials of an offensive or pornographic nature. If this type of material is unacceptable to you, turn off the I agree to perform tasks that contain adult content option in the profile.
Tasks in which Tolokers are asked to record a video or audio or take a photo are not prohibited in Toloka. If for some reason you don't want to complete this type of task, select another task from the list of available tasks.
Requesters check their tasks before posting and try to make sure they don't contain malicious links. The virus can only appear if the content of the site you access from the task has changed after the task was posted. According to Section 4.7 of the User Agreement, Toloka does not guarantee that tasks won't contain viruses and other malicious components. When completing tasks, the Toloker is solely responsible for the consequences of using the Toloka platform, including the damage that may be caused to software or hardware. If you encounter an infected site, notify the author of the task immediately.
If you encounter tasks in an unfamiliar language, don't complete them.
Tasks are posted and checked by requesters. If you have a question about the completion of a particular task, contact the requester directly. To do this, find the task in the Available, Reserved, or Done section, open the task, click on the three dots in the upper-right corner, and select .
If you receive spam, or if someone tries to obtain your contact information or suggests installing any programs, write to the support service:
When requesters review tasks, they primarily check whether they are completed according to the instructions. However, according to Section 3.5 of the User Agreement, you can't submit photos or videos of third parties or car license plates. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether the requester accepts the task or not. Your account might still be blocked for violation of the User Agreement, and you won't be able to withdraw money from Toloka (Section 8.5.3). Therefore, carefully check the photos and videos you're submitting for whether they contain vehicle number plates or other people's faces.
If the task asks you to take photos of strangers or car license plates, don't complete it and contact the Toloka support service. We will check the task, suspend it, or ask the requester to make changes to it so that the task complies with Toloka rules.
According to the law, you are allowed to take photos on the street and in stores and transfer this information to third parties.
According to Section 5.8 of the User Agreement, you work for Yandex as an independent contractor. Therefore, you can't use the logo, badge, or another ID that indicates your professional affiliation with Yandex or Toloka.
The photos you take help improve map services and make online maps and directories more complete, useful, and up-to-date.
If the employees of organizations ask you what you're collecting information for, explain that you're completing a task on the Toloka platform. Your goal is to verify information about a business's presence at a certain address and its working hours. The accuracy and reliability of this information is in the interests of the organization itself, because it will be published in directories and on online maps. If the employees of organizations tell you that you're filming illegally, explain that you're not collecting any personally identifiable information such as people's faces and car license plate numbers. All photos will be further processed according to all applicable privacy laws. If the employees of organizations don't allow you to enter the building and take photos, try to politely explain the legality of your actions. If this doesn't help, don't get into a conflict, and refuse the task.
If you can't complete the task according to the instructions, refuse it.
The availability of field tasks in specific cities depends on a number of factors: the needs of requesters, the epidemiological situation in the region, and so on. If there are currently no field tasks in your city, it means that requesters have suspended their placement for some reason. Check the map from time to time. You'll see the tasks when they appear.
If the task you liked is no longer displayed, it may have already been completed or you don't meet the selection criteria set by the requester. While this task is absent, you can take other ones. The desired tasks may appear again later.

If you don't want to complete a task from the list, don't start doing it. If you started a task, but you can't or don't want to complete the page that opens, go to the next one (use the Skip button). Only fully completed tasks are paid for.
If you no longer want to complete this task, use the Exit button.
Click the Exit button.
