Make Money Online From Digitize India | The Real Data Entry Job

Digitize India Platform (DIP) works under Digital India Programme to provide digitization services for scanned document images/environmental documents for any organization. They just want to make all the existing content( in different formats and media, languages) usable.

For doing this DIP provides a secure and automated platform for processing and extracting relevant data from document images in a format that is further used for meta-data tagging, IT application processing and analysis. You probably have heard of some other popular crowdsourcing platforms before, like Mturk, Microworkers, etc. , Deity works similarly.

You just type the word which appears on your screen exactly like Captcha typing jobs although here they are called Snippets.

How to Redeem/withdraw Your Points From Digitize India Platform

There are two things you can do with your points. You can donate your points being a volunteer, or you can redeem/withdraw your points for cash. Here is the process of withdrawing money from your Digitize India Account –

• Update Your Bank Profile – Login to your Digitize India Platform. Hover mouse cursor on “My Account” and click on Bank Profile. You don’t need to give your account details like account holder name, account number, and IFSC, etc. , just click on “check status” button there. If your Aadhar is seeded into your bank account, it will pick up all the bank details automatically and will show you with what bank account your Aadhar is linked otherwise it will show Error: Aadhaar number is not available. 

Note: If you have not attached your Aadhar with your bank I would suggest you link your Aadhar through your online internet banking account. Once you submit your Aadhar details in your internet business account, they will send a message to your registered mobile number that your Aadhar has been seeded into your bank account successfully. Now login back to your Digitize India Account and check status. I hope I will work.

• Set a Transaction PIN – Transaction PIN is a four digit code you have to insert each and every time while redeeming your points. To set it, click on “Transaction Pin” from My Account Tab. Now click on “Generate OTP” button. An OTP(one-time password) will be sent to your registered mobile number. Submit OTP,  set a transaction PIN and save it after captcha verification.
• Redeem Your Point – Click on “Rewards” to withdraw your money from Digitize India Account. A further click on “Redeem Your Points” button from the info panel at the right side of the screen. Insert the no. of points you want to redeem in the form, add a remark, insert your wallet pin if you enter correct wallet pin it will show status as correct. Finally, click on Submit. That’s all you need to do.

Note: Remember two things here. You can’t redeem twice in a month, and Minimum withdrawal limit of Digitize India Platform is 2500 points. I mean you need to have at least 2500 points to be able to withdraw your money to your bank account.

Payment Proof of Digitize India

There were so many comments that Digitize India is not sending their payment in Bank account. So one day I typed 3395 snippets with an accuracy of 86 to collect 3064 reward points. I applied for withdrawal (2500 Reward Points) on 10th October 2016.

After waiting  23 days, Digitize India deposited my Payment in my bank account on 3rd November 2016. Here is the screenshot of my internet banking account –

People who have not received payment yet,  please stop checking payment status in your DIP account. It might keep showing status as “initiated” even after they have paid you.  Either Open your internet banking account and check all the transactions or get your bank passbook printed. Also remember, you might not get Bank Transaction SMS on your registered mobile number.

How many days should you wait to get your money from Digitize India?

Believe me, Waiting 30 days for payment is not a big deal. Many of sites take 4 to 6 weeks to make payments. So have a lot of patience and keep working. This is how it works online.
