• What is a Global Bank Transfer?

  This option allows you to receive your earnings directly to your existing local bank account, in your chosen currency. Payoneer offers payments in over 200 countries and more than 150 currencies. Currency conversions take place from USD and cost $1.50 per transfer, plus 2% Foreign Exchange (FX) conversion fee on top of the daily mid-market rate.

  Global Bank Transfer is a popular payment method due to our competitive FX rates. Below are examples of the fees that would be applicable from USD to a local currency at different transaction amounts. The final transfer amount will be the equivalent in your local currency.

  Use the table below to compare your current fees with Payoneer fees.
