Does Upwork support Payoneer withdrawals
Yes, Upwork supports Payoneer withdrawals. Freelancers can link their Payoneer account to Upwork and transfer earnings once they reach the minimum threshold. Payoneer typically charges a small percentage fee for currency conversion and may take a few business days to process the funds to your local bank account in India.
However, many Indian freelancers now prefer alternatives like Skydo, an RBI-authorised cross-border payments platform that offers faster transfers and more competitive rates. You can withdraw funds from Upwork through direct bank transfers as well, though processing times and fees vary. Choosing the right withdrawal method depends on your priorities around speed, cost, and convenience for receiving international payments in India.
