Translator

What is Translator?

A translator is an individual who converts written text from one language to another. At Gengo, translators can earn varying amounts depending on language demand and job availability. The process at Gengo involves signing up, passing a two-part test, familiarizing oneself with the style guide and workbench, and then starting the translation work. Payment for translations is simplified as it is automatically added to the translator's account. Translators at Gengo come from diverse backgrounds but share a common passion for languages and translation. Additionally, passing the Pro qualification test at Gengo unlocks access to more challenging projects with higher reward rates.

Who created Translator?

Translator was created by Adrian, who found Gengo in 2009, signed up, took the tests, started to translate, and enjoyed it. Gengo, the company behind Translator, has a diverse community of translators with a shared passion for languages and translation.
