Payoneer MasterCard

Personally, as a Freelancer, Blogger, and internet marketer, Payoneer has been of immense help for me in terms of getting paid from companies based especially in the US, UK and India. You see, once the money gets to my Payoneer account, I withdraw here in my country as simple as ABCD.

Kindly follow me along.

REASONS WHY YOU MUST HAVE A PAYONEER ACCOUNT

Below are the main reasons and advantages of creating and owning a Payoneer account.

1. You Get a Virtual US and UK Bank Accounts: When you open a Payoneer account, you will be given about 3 different foreign bank accounts which are dominated in Dollars, Euros and Pounds. Now, with this accounts, you can easily receive payments from foreign clients based in these top countries of the world. It actually means you can receive money in those high currencies without any stress and later withdraw from your local bank which you linked to your Payoneer account or simply via the ATM. To most Nigerians who earns from local currency, the current Dollar Naira exchange rate is not favorable to them but the reverse is the case for people earning hard currencies like Dollars, Pounds and Euros.

2. Local Bank Account Not Required To Sign Up: Yes you don't need to have a bank account in Nigeria or your country in order to withdraw money from the ATM. With Payoneer Mastercard, you are already a bank account owner and foreign account for that matter.

This will be a relief for most young students, bloggers and freelancers who doesn't have bank accounts yet but want to be receiving payments from clients all over the world.

You don’t need to worry about the currency conversion rates and other things of this kind, all you need to do is to go to your favorite country and use their local ATM to withdraw your money in their local currency. The conversion will be done automatically though Payoneer charges around $3 per withdrawal so I advice you to withdraw when you have up to $100 in order not to loose more to that charge.
