In the past, Crowdflower monthly fees may have peaked in the neighborhood of $11,000 each month plus a 15 percent fee on the amount paid to workers. A screenshot of Crowdflower's past pricing screen is seen in a requester's write-up on an experience with Crowdflower. If you draw some inferences from information available on the web, you have an assumed estimate of some of the fees charged by Crowdflower and Clickworker.
Requesters will soon be able to upgrade to AMT's elite masters qualification workforce for an additional 3.5 to 4.1 percent on their total bill. The overall amount paid will be more with thenew AMT fees scheduled for July 22, but the new lower percentage fee for masters workers makes that workforce less expensive comparatively. It remains to be seen whether this will result in a large shift towards hiring masters workers, or a bolstered reluctance to swallow the extra fee.
Clickworker charges a fee for posting paid tasks, but they won't tell you how much. According to the Clickworker FAQ page, fees are discussed once you make contact with the website. Other sites like Mturk charge a requester as little as 7% on top of the amount paid to the worker, or as much as 45% on top of the amount paid to the worker.
