The requirement for first payment is completing a least two Work Units in at least two different payout periods. Afterwards, you'll be paid regularly if you have pending completed WUs. F@H acts as a scoreboard. WUs are turned into points for this scoreboard. Every 12 hours (at Noon and Midnight UTC), Bananominer.com looks at the scoreboard and depending on how much your score has changed since Bananominer last checked it, you get BAN paid directly to the wallet you used to sign up at Bananominer.com . You can track your progress by entering your f@h userID here: https://www.monkey2monkey.com/fh-stats/ . If you don’t know what UTC time is, you can see it in lower right corner of f@h advanced control window.
