This has never happened before. I don't think it is on Paypal's side because my transaction fee is still pending. Please help!

This happened to me Tdsay $511 to Paypal no resolution yet, what do I do?

Hi Chris Angel,

 

I am sorry to hear about the delay in receiving your funds. Upwork and PayPal usually process payment transfers instantly. However, sometimes it can take up to 24 hours. Please get in touch with PayPal if the transfer is not reflecting after 24 hours.

Hello

 

I cannot receive money from Upwork to PAYPAL.

So I added my prepaid visa card to receive payment.

But when I want to make the transfer, it does not appear in the list of billing method

Hi. I tried to withdraw on paypal account and immediatly received "Your payment has been rejected". Need help to know the reason. Thanks.

Hi Kyrylo,

 

I am sorry to hear about your withdrawal. I suggest you reach out to PayPal support to check the status of your PayPal account and try again once the issue has been resolved.

Solved for me: Ukrainian users can not receive PayPal payments from Upwork (not allowed by PayPal), only payments from PayPal users are allowed. That`s why transactions are always rejected. Payoneer works fine.

I have to clients/people I did jobs for and the say they sent the money - it  is not showing in either my paypal or upwork acct how do i contact Upwork to check on my payments made. 

Hi Maria,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. I checked your account and can see some payments currently on pending status. Please keep in mind that when your client releases a milestone or final payment on a fixed-price job, it immediately shows as pending on your financial account. Pending payments become available for you to withdraw after the standard five-day security period.

HELLO,

first upwork demaned that i need to have the same name in upwork as paypal so the transaction can happen so i changed the paypal name, after that every time i request a payment to paypal it fails and desactivate the paypal paymrnt method, knowing that paypal and upwork both are verified and the name in paypal match the name in upwork,also paypal is linked to my credit card and activated, please help.

It can be frustrating when you encounter issues with payment methods on platforms like Upwork. If you've already ensured that the name on your Upwork and PayPal accounts matches, and your PayPal account is properly verified and linked to a valid payment source, but you're still experiencing issues with payments, here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the problem:

1. **Verify PayPal Account:** Double-check that your PayPal account is fully verified. Make sure that you've completed all the necessary verification steps, such as confirming your email, linking a bank account or credit card, and completing any identity verification requirements PayPal might have.

2. **PayPal Balance:** Ensure that your PayPal balance is not empty, or if you intend to use a linked credit card, that it has sufficient available credit.

3. **Check Transaction Limits:** Review your PayPal account for any transaction limits or restrictions that might be preventing the transaction. PayPal sometimes places limitations on accounts for various reasons, such as security or verification issues.

4. **Payment Source:** Confirm that your linked payment source (e.g., bank account or credit card) is in good standing and not experiencing any issues that might block transactions.

5. **PayPal Customer Support:** If you've checked all the above and are still experiencing problems, consider reaching out to PayPal customer support. They can provide assistance specific to your PayPal account and help diagnose and resolve payment issues.

6. **Upwork Support:** Additionally, you can also contact Upwork's customer support to report the issue and ask for assistance. They may be able to provide insights or solutions regarding payment issues within the Upwork platform.

It's important to address these issues promptly to avoid any payment disruptions. Be patient and thorough in your troubleshooting, and consider contacting both PayPal and Upwork support for assistance. They should be able to help you resolve the payment problems you're facing.

I would like to make a withdrawal, but I use PayPal as my withdrawal method. Each time I make a withdrawal, the withdrawal is refused. But the problem is that I've put everything in order and everything is well verified, so I'm really lost and I don't understand why it's constantly refused. My PayPal account is in my name, my e-mail address is in my name and even my upwork account is in my name. So why is the withdrawal being refused?

Hi KOUKA,

 

I'm sorry to hear this is happening to you. In case you haven't already, can you please contact PayPal customer support and confirm with them if there's any issue preventing you from making your withdrawal? If the problem persists after that, don't hesitate to let us know; we'll be happy to assist you further.

Hi there,

I am receiving a rejection email when I try to withdraw money to PayPal account.

I checked my PayPal account details. I have approved my credit cards as well. Everything seems fine. But when it comes to withdrawing money I always get rejection emails.

Hi Samboth,

 

I'm sorry to learn that the transactions with your PayPal account cannot be completed. 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, you may reprocess the withdrawal and please let us know if the issue continues; we'll look further into that for you.

Hi Arjay, thanks for your response. I have added the alternative, but I am wondering why the payment did not go through to my Paypal account. Is it something to do with my Paypal account or something with Upwork?
