The most important thing to keep in mind about Payoneer cards, is that you can’t apply for a card on your own. The fact is, if you browse the Payoneer website you won’t find an application form anywhere. This is because they do not deal with “individuals”.

To be able to access the application form, you need to be referred by a Payoneer partner, a sort of endorsement if you want.

Payoneer has partnered with many online businesses to offer them the possibility to make mass payouts easier, faster and more convenient for them and those who will receive them. If you are not already making money from one of Payoneer’s many partners, you will have to start by signing up with one of them.

We provide a complete list of Payoneer partners for you to choose from but we advise you to use the ones we recommend in our step by step Payoneer card application tutorial.

Once you have applied for your Payoneer prepaid card, you will have to wait for your application to be reviewed and accepted (or rejected). The review process usually takes no more than a week and you should receive an email informing you that your application has been approved both from Payoneer and the partner you went through to apply. The email will also inform you that your card has been sent to you by regular mail.

Depending on where you live on the globe, you might have to wait for your card to arrive for several weeks. Of course if you live in the US, it will be much faster.

Once you receive your Payoneer card, the next steps are to activate it and load money on it before you can start using it.
