I went through the UHRS sign-up myself, from the ClickWorker qualification test to the HitApps. It is legit, but getting in is complicated and you wait a long time for your money. Below is how it works, and which sites I recommend instead.

Legit data entry tasks, but a complicated way in
Simple AI training tasks through ClickWorker. Expect a qualification test, a LiveID login and a 28-day wait before you can withdraw.

The short answer
UHRS is legit. It stands for Universal Human Relevance System, a crowdsourcing platform where you get paid for small data entry tasks that mostly help train artificial intelligence (AI).
But you cannot join UHRS directly. You go through a platform like ClickWorker, pass an English test and create a LiveID first. You also wait at least 28 days before you can withdraw your earnings. In my opinion, it does not offer anything special compared to other data entry sites.
- Good payout methods through ClickWorker, like PayPal
- Available more or less worldwide
- Every task tells you what it pays before you start
- The tasks are relatively easy
- Limited earning opportunities
- You wait at least 28 days before you can withdraw
- The registration is complicated compared to similar sites
- No app or member platform of its own
My experience with UHRS
I signed up through ClickWorker, took the qualification test and looked at the HitApps and the support options. This is what I did myself, and what I did not test.

Is UHRS legit and safe?
Yes, UHRS is legit, because you really get paid for the tasks you complete. But that does not automatically make it worth your time. Here is what you should know before you start.
- A complicated way in
You sign up for a platform like ClickWorker, pass a 25-question English test, create a LiveID and then find the task that links to the UHRS login. It is a lot more work than filling out a sign-up form.
- A long wait for your money
UHRS moves your earnings to your ClickWorker account every week, but you wait at least 28 days before you can withdraw them.
- You do not control how many tasks you get
There are usually a decent number of tasks, but you have no control over how many are available to you. Simple tasks do not pay a huge amount.
- Your work is reviewed before you are paid
Every HitApp is created by its owner and has its own instructions. Read them carefully before you start. UHRS reviews your work, and it typically takes a couple of days before you know if it is approved.
My takeIn my opinion, UHRS is not a bad option to earn extra cash. However, it doesn’t offer anything special compared to other sites that offer data entry tasks. What I don’t like about this platform is the complicated sign-up process. You are actually better off just working on the tasks found on ClickWorker rather than taking an extra step to access the opportunities it offers.
UHRS takes a long sign-up and a 28-day wait. The top sites in your country let you start earning sooner.
See the best sites in your countryHow you earn on UHRS
There is only one way to earn: HitApps, which you reach after the qualification test.
HitAppsShown per task
A HitApp is a kind of task created by the HitApp owner. Once you can access the HitApps, you just pick any of the available ones and click it. The annotation tasks help AI systems identify text, videos and images a lot better. They are relatively very easy to do.
Every task has a set of instructions you need to follow, and it tells you how much you earn to complete it. Read the instructions carefully before you start working.
Once you have completed a task, UHRS reviews your work. It typically takes a couple of days before you know if your submission is approved. Once it is approved, you receive the compensation that was promised.

How much can you make?
As with most data entry sites, it depends on how often you can complete tasks, and you do not control how many tasks are available to you. The good thing is that there are usually a decent number of tasks you can do daily.
But if you were expecting to earn around $50 per day, that would be quite a stretch, in my opinion. Simple tasks do not pay a huge amount. The earning potential is pretty decent if you do it with the right expectations and are willing to put in quite a lot of work.
How you get paid
| Method | Notes |
|---|---|
| PayPal | Through ClickWorker |
| Bank transfer | Through ClickWorker. Not available in every country. |
| Payoneer | Through ClickWorker. Not available in every country. |
UHRS works with other platforms, like ClickWorker. When you complete a task, UHRS transfers your earnings to your ClickWorker account every week. You then wait at least 28 days before you can withdraw them from ClickWorker.
The payment system is quite confusing at first, but once you get used to it, withdrawing is relatively easy. The downside is the long wait. For more sites with a convenient payout method, see the top sites that pay via PayPal.
How to join UHRS
First, sign up for a platform that works with UHRS, for example ClickWorker. Log in and click the “Qualify for UHRS” link. You then answer a 25-question test that checks your English language aptitude. When I did the test, it took only around five minutes.
Once you have passed, you create your LiveID. That is your Windows account, so if you already have one, you can use it. Then find the task in ClickWorker that says “Go to UHRS and check out available projects”. Its link takes you to the UHRS login, where you sign in with your LiveID and see all the tasks you can work on.
UHRS has no app or member platform of its own. On your phone, you log in to the ClickWorker app and open the UHRS tasks from the ClickWorker workplace. It is fairly easy to navigate.
What 25 readers told me
This review has 25 comments since December 2022: 13 from readers and 12 replies from me. These are the three things readers ask about most.
Readers from Kenya, Uganda, Ghana, Rwanda and Ethiopia asked for other options. I point them to the best international sites.
Readers describe unclear guidelines and being disabled from HitApps after quality checks.
Readers found the sign-up through ClickWorker complicated or could not unlock UHRS yet. How many opportunities you get depends on your country and profile.
“I have been using Clickworker for quite some time. However, I am still unable to earn a significant amount, and I have not yet been able to unlock UHRS…”
Mikael: But as also mentioned, how many opportunities you get can vary a lot depending on your country and profile.
“You can earn some money but it’s got to be one of the most frustrating platforms out there. A lot of the “hitapps” are badly designed or don’t have proper guidance.”
Mikael: Thanks for sharing your experiences.
“I am new to such platform but I would like to try it. So would you please suggest to me some options which are applicable to Ethiopia?”

If you have any comments, questions, or experiences with UHRS, I would love to hear from you in a comment below.
Hello,
My name is Aleem, and I have been using Clickworker for quite some time. However, I am still unable to earn a significant amount, and I have not yet been able to unlock UHRS, which I understand could provide access to more job opportunities.
Could you please advise me on what I can do to unlock UHRS and increase my earning opportunities on Clickworker? I would really appreciate any guidance, tips, or recommendations that could help me start earning more as soon as possible.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best regards,
Aleem
I explain all about UHRS in the review above. But as also mentioned, how many opportunities you get can vary a lot depending on your country and profile.
I suggest you first read the review above carefully, and if you then have more specific questions, just ask.
the hitaps on UHRS which require you to judge whether the links are relevant or not… require you to pass the qualification test, but the given options are ambiguous… Various answers can be classified right or wrong without any clear reasoning. The guidelines are not up to date and do not cover all the possible scenarios even for the qualification test…
It’s like a cheating show when asking:
“Guess what I’m thinking about”
“Horse”
“No. It wasn’t the horse. You lost all”…
No right answer, no clarifications, no explanations… nothing… You just waste your time.
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Indeed, slightly complicate to sign up and I will see when they will pay ( I registered through Clickworker ) .
For the other platform, the offers depende on from what countries are you from …
And from where I am (Madagascar), usually there are no offers avalaible, which is upseting.
However in UHRS, they don’t seem to be filtering by location.
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
This uhrs have some hitapp that permanently disable user for no reason , i just get one that i didn’t even touch it on the day i work because it doen’t appear on work available section and 6 hour later it appear on notification that i get disable on the hitapp that i didn’t even work on it that day , also i have 93% accuracy on that hitapp the other day
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Hi Mikael,
I appreciate your review on UHRS and found it useful. Thanks so much. I am new to such platform but I would like to try it. So would you please suggest to me some options which are applicable to Ethiopia?
Thanks,

Thanks for the review, I’ve recently revisited this platform after signing up a few years ago. You can earn some money but it’s got to be one of the most frustrating platforms out there. A lot of the “hitapps” are badly designed or don’t have proper guidance.
This means that if you’re lucky enough to pass the qualification test for that particular HA and there’s enough availability, sooner or later you’ll be find yourself booted out of the HA for quality. They add in “spam” hits when doing the tasks but you won’t which ones these are and the answers can seem quite arbitrary meaning there’s a high chance you’ll get it wrong thus lowering your spam score.
In most HA’s you will need to maintain a high very spam rate usually 80%+. There’s some HA’s that have thousands of hits available so theoretically you could absolutely make $50+ in a day for that particular HA provided you work at a decent pace. But the problem is you’re almost certainly going to get kicked out or ‘temporarily disabled’ the term UHRS use before you get anywhere near that.
If you get get booted, you can go back the next day and you will a have maximum two lives left. If you get booted for the third time, you’re banned for good and there isn’t anything you can do about it. It’s very frustrating, especially when you know you are doing a good job and making money at a decent rate but got disabled because your spam rate dipped below 85%!
Of course, there will people out to spam the system themselves and try to make a fast buck, I guess that’s why there is a lot of this happening but you will also get caught up despite your best efforts to work carefully and make the best judgments on the HA’s you can.
I think the best way is just to think of it as a small side hustle, do your best on it, you will get frustrated it but don’t let it get you down when you start getting booted from HA’s. This happens to many judges on the system, just move onto the next available HA. I think the best use for UHRS is to gain extra cash for more larger projects you may want to do such as an online business.
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
That is exactly the impression I got from UHRS after working one month there. Very frustrating and I would even say humiliating work experience. Most of the times you’ll receive insufficient guidelines, then try your best guess when you realize the guidelines are incomplete, but it’s useless because eventually you know you’ll get disabled. Then you’ll complain to support and they’ll tell you to go back to their poorly written guidelines that don’t cover half of the cases you’re actually dealing with.
Hi Mikael, thanks for that review. I live in Uganda and would like to know which other platforms I can use to earn extra cash on a timely basis.
