I would like to understand the payment structure of mining pools. How do they distribute the rewards among the miners? Are there specific criteria or is it based on each miner's contribution?

One common payout scheme is pay per share (PPS), where miners earn based on the number of shares they contribute.

Another scheme is pay per last N shares (PPLNS), which rewards miners based on their contributions over a specific period.
