What to do first

  1. If an inbound payment has not arrived after 5 business days, ask Payoneer to investigate. Payoneer says it starts one on your behalf if you ask. (point PY4)
  2. Be ready to give more information about the expected payment. Payoneer says it may need it. (point PY4)

What not to do

  • Do not read 180 days as a standard length. It is the limit the Terms name for limiting access to funds. (point PY1)
