Yes, British soldiers, commonly referred to as "redcoats," were paid for their service. Their wages varied over time and depending on their rank, but they typically received a regular salary. However, many soldiers faced challenges in getting paid on time and often relied on additional sources of income, such as plunder or local support during campaigns.
