Hi, I am from Nepal. I have created and linked my PayPal account on Upwork. But I am not able to get paid on PayPal. I get the following message while trying to get paid:

Hi Arbind,
We attempted to process your recent payment request but unfortunately, it failed.
The reason for returned funds: Unable to apply funds.
As a result, the funds have been returned to your Upwork account and we need you to update your payment method for future payments.

 

Is there any restriction on the minimum amount to transfer?
Can anyone help me to get it done?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

 

I would like to share a problem I have been facing, I tried mentionning it in a similar topic, but I just found out that my comment was deleted for some reason, so I'm creating this new topic for it. 

So I tried to send my available funds to my PayPal, but it failed and I received the following email:

4e35c203_0-1686768902325.png

And now I have to wait 24h before attempting to get paid again, I'm afraid the problem will happen again and I'll have to wait yet another day, can anyone help me out with this please ?

Hello,

 

Today, I initiated a withdrawal from Upwork and it shows success on Upwork but I did receive any money on my PayPal.

It's my first withdrawal please help me.

 

Kinds regards,

Manmohit Taiya

Hi Manmohit, 

Have you received your funds yet? I have a similar problem, it's been going on since Saturday. 

 

Hi Manmohit and Suzanne,

 

Thank you for your message. I understand how important it is to receive your funds on time. Payment transfers between Upwork and PayPal occur immediately in most cases. However, there are occasions when it may take up to 24 hours. If a transfer was initiated more than 24 hours ago and is still not complete, please contact PayPal.

 

Thank you,

Pradeep

Hi, everyone.

I am going to add my Paypal to my Upwork account, but it is said that my Paypal is not verified. I can't believe it. I added my debit card to my Paypal account already. Please tell me how to fix it. Thank you in advance!

Hi Saleha,

 

You may need to add an alternative payment method to your PayPal wallet to add your PayPal account as a payment method on Upwork, as the transaction cannot be completed from our end. Once you've added an alternative payment method, please let us know if the issue continues.
 
To check which payment source failed on your PayPal account, follow these steps:
  • Log into your PayPal account and go to "Settings."
  • Go to the "Payments" tab and click "Manage automatic payments."
  • Click on the billing agreement associated with "Upwork Escrow Inc."
  • Scroll to the bottom of the page and check what funding source is your backup.
  • Update the backup source to a valid payment method and re-attempt the payment.
If the transaction fails again, the next step is to contact PayPal directly. Specifically, you'll want to talk to a PayPal Tier 2 agent and ask why your transaction to Upwork was declined.

I made a withdrawal to PayPal by mistake, thinking it was my bank account. I informed the support team that it was unauthorized since I thought it was someone else. But since then I informed Upwork support team of the error I made and I was the one who made the transfer thinking it was my bank account but received no response in 3 days.

 

They told me I'll hear from them within 10 hours, it's been 3 days now and I'm getting a bit worried.

Any ideas on what should I do?

You set correct PP address? Just wait money at PP or UW account.

Hi Youness,

 

We certainly understand how alarming this is for you. I can see that you've been coordinating directly with the team handling withdrawal issues. Please continue communicating with the team on this page or your email, and they will assist you efficiently and accordingly.

Hi Arjay,

 

Thank you for your reply! I still haven't heared back from the support team after many attemps of reaching them through my ticket. Is there anything else I can do in order to get a reply back? The orignal message said that they will get back to me in 10 hours and it's been 4 days now. 

 

Thanks again!

Hello Everyone,

 

It's my first time withdrawing money from Upwork and when I try to use PayPal it got rejected the reason behind this was that Upwork was unable to apply funds,

 

Can anyone help me in knowing how to withdraw from Upwork using PayPal

Hi Manhomit,

If you have any issues with payments the best way to be contact support, but just in case you should make sure your Paypal account is working and everything is setup properly.
