Fix Payoneer KYC Verification

Payoneer works in 200+ countries, each with different ID formats. IDs in non-Latin scripts or from countries with less standardized documents have higher rejection rates.

Payoneer requires proof of address for many countries. Document must be less than 6 months old and show your full name and complete address.

Payoneer is often linked to platforms like Upwork, Fiverr, or Amazon. If your name on those platforms doesn't match your Payoneer ID, verification fails.

Linking a local bank account for withdrawals requires the bank account name to exactly match your Payoneer account name — including middle names.

⏱️ How long does Payoneer verification take?

Initial verification takes 1-3 business days. If additional documents are requested, add another 3-5 days. Manual review cases can take up to 2 weeks.

📄 What proof of address does Payoneer accept?

Bank statements, utility bills, government letters, or tax documents dated within 6 months. Must show your full name and complete address matching your application.

🔗 Why does Payoneer need to match my Upwork/Fiverr name?

When you link Payoneer to a platform, they verify your identity matches across both. Name mismatches trigger additional review or rejection.

🌍 I'm in a country with non-Latin IDs. What should I do?

Use your passport if possible — it's more universally recognized. If using a national ID, ensure the photo is extra clear and any Latin text portions are visible.
