Can I send upwork payments to my wife's bank account?

[Oscar Q]

I'm based in Colombia, my wife is based in the US, we both have separate bank accounts. I would like to know if I'm able to transfer funds directly from upwork to my wife's bank account in the US. Thank you in advance.

No. It has to be in your name.

Hi Oscar

Unless it's a joint account and your name is on it as well as your wife's, you won't be able to use it as your withdrawal method.

Oscar, it is very easy to add your name to your wife's name as a joint account holder on U.S. bank accounts.
