We are excited to share with you a testimonial from our account holder in Tunisia, Ahmed Feki, who works as a freelancer on oDesk and also as a seller on Amazon – using Payoneer to receive his payments. Enjoy!
Can you explain your line of business? What are the services you provide on oDesk and Amazon?
I’m an oDesk freelancer from 2009, specialized in developing websites & Web APP & ERP. After oDesk became my primary job and I started making good profits I decided to start working on Amazon as a Magic mug seller in 2013.
How did you hear about Payoneer and why did you choose it as your payment solution?
Well, here in Tunisia it’s almost impossible to get an international credit card. After countless meetings with many bank managers I found out that this option is given only for businessmen, while I’m just a man looking for a credit card to make my internet business idea become alive. My success story started when I heard about Payoneer from a close friend who is also using Payoneer to manage his online business. This was really my lucky day! Payoneer helped me find oDesk, the best opportunity I have ever found, where I can easily make money by selling my programming skills 🙂
How does Payoneer help you manage your business and receive your payments from different sources at the same time?
As you might know, PayPal in Tunisia has very limited service with no option to withdraw money. Payoneer makes it possible by helping me get my money from oDesk and Amazon in my country. I found the Amazon selling opportunity before Payoneer launched the US Payment Service, the puzzle was not yet completed, because I could buy products and resell them but I couldn’t withdraw my money from Amazon since I don’t have US bank account. After a while, it looked like Payoneer thought about me when they launched the US Payment service, it was my lucky day! So I start to transfer my oDesk earnings to US selling business channel in Amazon US, that’s how I became a seller on Amazon. My next lucky day came while I was thinking to extend my US Amazon business to Amazon Europe, I faced the same problem to withdraw my money to EUR Bank account, but as always Payoneer’s magic worked again and they launched the EUR Payment Service, which allowed me to extend my sales to Amazon.uk, Amazon.it, Amazon.fr, Amazon.de and Amazon.es…Enormous opportunities are awaiting! Payoneer deserves all the credit for making me a lucky professional.
Are you satisfied with our service? Would you recommend Payoneer to people?
I’m really satisfied with Payoneer’s service, I really recommend it to anyone who wants to run a business online, especially for people who live in a country with limited opportunities and can’t get an international credit card. If you don’t have an online business opportunity yet, you can start working with Payoneer’s partners same as I did and start your journey to success.
