For a basic overview, read http://www.mahalo.com/how-mahalo-works . A brief summary is as follows.

There are three main ways to earn M$s (Mahalo money).

1. Take on and complete assignments (e.g. building pages).
2. Answer questions well enough to earn Best Answer (see http://www.mahalo.com/how-to-get-a-best-answer-on-mahalo for tips on how to do this).
3. Manage and curate pages, leading to a share of ad revenue from your pages. You can claim existing pages that are not actively managed by someone else, or you can find a page topic that is not covered (by searching Mahalo for it) and then propose to make a page to cover it. This will lead to your getting the chance to build the page as a task (providing income based on 1 above) and then you'll also be the manager of that page.

A fourth, but much less predictable way to earn Mahalo money is to participate in Mahalo in a positive way, such that other Mahalo members decide to tip you for exceptional contributions.

Once you've earned at least M$40, you can request a payout to your Paypal account. You can do this at most once per month, and the payout will be given between the 15th and 22nd of the following month. This makes it most useful to request payment near the end of the month. For every M$1.00 you cash out, Mahalo will pay you US$0.75. http://www.mahalo.com/how-mahalo-dollars-and-payments-work provides much more details. Keep in mind that prior to receiving your first payout you must fill out, sign, and send to Mahalo (e.g. via fax) a form W-9 if you are a US resident, or a W-8 if you are not a US resident, and work on Mahalo from outside the US.

Welcome and good luck.
