Hello Amina,

 

I am sorry to hear that you have not received your funds. I checked and it seems the transaction is currently in process. Please note that there are occasions when it may take up to 24 hours to receive your funds on your Paypal. If it has been more than 24 hours, please contact PayPal. Feel free to message us if you need further assistance. 

 

Thank you.

Pradeep.

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

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.

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.

Hi, I have Withdrawn money from Upwork to my Paypal. At that time Paypal limited my account due to verification. after a few hours, it was activated. For one week my money is not transferred to Paypal. The PayPal support team told me to contact the Upwork support team.

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. 

 

Can you reach me out directly to for support, please?
