Payoneer Global Payment Service: do’s and don’ts

Did you know that you can receive payments from companies worldwide with Payoneer’s Global Payment Service? The Global Payment Service is a solution for Payoneer account holders worldwide to receive commercial payments from international companies for work done online, such as freelancing, affiliate networks, Amazon/eBay sellers, app development, stock photography, and more. The service provides international receiving accounts, allowing international companies to easily send you a local bank transfer – as if you were a local employee with a local bank account!

We’ve gathered some helpful tips for you to make sure your use of the Global Payment Service is effortless!

DO…

  • make sure you send the company the relevant details for the currency in which you want to receive payment (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY).

  • note that Payoneer receiving accounts can be used only for the following bank transfers:
    • ACH for USD
    • SEPA for EUR
    • BACS and FPS for GBP
    • Zengin for JPY
  • use your Payoneer receiving account to receive Amazon disbursements if you sell on Amazon USA, Amazon Europe, or Amazon Japan.
  • remember to select checking as your account type when adding your Global Payment Service receiving account as a payment method.
  • consider sending the company a payment request if you’d like to offer more ways to pay you.
  • contact Customer Care (and not the banks associated with the receiving accounts) if you have any questions or feedback regarding the Global Payment Service.

DO NOT…

  • request payments from companies that do not meet the Terms & Conditions of the Global Payment Service. Payments such as these will be sent back to the payer.
  • request payment from individuals. The Global Payment Service is intended only to receive payment from companies.
  • request payment via international wire transfer. This is not supported by the Global Payment Service.
  • use the Global Payment Service to receive checks from companies. The check will not be delivered to you.
