Does Upwork support Payoneer withdrawals
Yes, Upwork supports Payoneer withdrawals for freelancers based outside the United States, sending earnings to a linked Payoneer account.
- Eligibility: The Payoneer method is offered to non-U.S. freelancers, while freelancers with a U.S. tax address can use Direct to U.S. Bank (ACH) for free.
- Timing: Once the method is fully set up, transfers usually reach the Payoneer account within 24 hours.
- Fees: Upwork generally charges a flat fee on each withdrawal, such as $2 USD, and Payoneer may apply its own charges on top.
To withdraw funds from Upwork through Payoneer, you add the method once in your account settings.
- Log in: Sign in to Upwork and open your account settings.
- Find the payout section: Go to the Withdrawals or Get Paid area.
- Add Payoneer: Choose Payoneer as the withdrawal method and connect your Payoneer account credentials.
You can also remove the Payoneer account from your Upwork settings later if you no longer plan to receive client earnings through it.
