Direct Bank Payment to Kosovo

I am a citizen of Kosovo, and here in Kosovo we do not have the option to transfer funds from Upwork to a Kosovo local bank. With the issues of the pre paid cards, our funds are stuck either in Upwork or Payoneer (Payoneer also does not have the option to transfer funds to a local bank in Kosovo).

As you might be aware, Kosovo is a country so far recognized as independent by the majority of members of the United Nations, including the United States, United Kingdom and the majority of European Union countries. Kosovo is already recognized by a lot of internet properties such as Facebook, Instagram, Dropbox, Linkedin, W3C, Twitter, Skrill etc.

Kosovo has one of the youngest populations in all of Europe. Kosovo, as a young country, is rapidly bridging the digital divide facing its citizens, institutions and businesses.

There are lots of people working on Upwork from Kosovo, and with the issue of freezing Pre-paid Mastercards, we have no other choice to withdraw out fund. When will Kosovo be added on the list of your countries? 

 

Thank you

Hi Nita,

 

Thanks for the message. We don't have any news at the moment but we'll make sure to update the Community in case we expand Direct to Local Bank withdrawals to additional countries.
