gwenhwyfar37 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Hi all…(the new look seems very different) I am asking about Payoneer, when offered an opportunity to use it for direct deposit opportunity. I’ve been a loyal Paypal user for a long time (especially if you are going to purchase anything on eBay or some other place) My big question is re: fees. Security at Paypal is top notch (a good thing) I wonder why I was not offered a direct deposit opportunity through them?Some article I read said something about a $29.95 fee that would be incurred through Payoneer; I could have misread something there…something about a Master card? (I’m not interested) Can someone enlighten me a little? Security is important too, but I don’t want to be nickeled and dimed for everything.Thanks in advance!

mithunbaiju Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Unless you want to use payoneer for buying stuff online, I don’t think there’s anything to worry about.I have used payoneer and it is a good platform for direct deposit of money.I live in India and it takes PayPal around 5 days to deposit the money to my bank account. But with payoneer, the transaction time was 24 hours. It is automatic.I think it is for Indian customers, but you can always send a message to the support team there and they will help you understand the platform better.

cyrill_james Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 i used payoneer since last years and i thin it’s best service. payoneer charge approximately $30 annual fee. deposit option is too fast and it takes only a day . the security of payoneer is also a top notch and payoneer work with all major freelancing sites.

gwenhwyfar37 Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share Posted October 28, 2015 Hmmm…I really have no need for the Master card and I can’t see paying a $30 fee like that unless I were dealing with some really big sums…Have to have a think about that one!

antonio26900 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I just used it for the fist time, it works fine but I would only use it to transfer a big amount as they charge 3 dollars just for that, and if you are outside the US apparently 2% of the whole amount for currency conversion which is really a lot, I think paypal charges less than that for currency conversion?

theratypist Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 No, because in my country has really crazy additional fees. I don’t know the rates with other countries. Paypal is the only one I’ll be relying on for now. haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rupia6061 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Strange fiverr support.

jamesbulls Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Yes, well, I’m not in India, so it’s not free for me, which is why I won’t ever use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruslancer Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Paypal forces to use local currency in my region, also it can happen that out of nowhere they will “temporarily” lock your account with all funds being frozen up to 6 months, especially it should concern people ourside US, Europe… They did that to me and their support is absolutely useless when it comes to such cases. I prefered paypal before, now payoneer is the best solution that allows me to receive what I actually earned. Thanks fiverr for working with payoneer.

nancymcmyers Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I just got an email that Payoneer saying they can’t transfer my money to my bank. They already have my information but are now asking me to send a voided check or bank statement. This seems phishy to me.Over a week after attempting my first direct deposit and I still don’t have my money. I won’t be using Payoneer again.

sohizidesign Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I used both and I can say both of them are good I’m outside the Us but it works awesome for me I use Payoneer for withdrawing money cash and PayPal for online purchases as its more secured than a Credit Card but I agree that Payoneer is better for me as PayPal not free in my country you have to pay about $60 to $65 each year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
