Releasing Payments to Vendors

Vendors have a wide variety of choices in how payments should be sent out from their 2Checkout account. The payment types, fees and availability can often be confusing. Release of payments also depends on the status of your 2Checkout account, which would have to be of a “Y” or “P” status to be eligible for the funds release. Below are the definitions, geographical availability and the associated fees for each payment type.

Definitions

  • EFT — Electronic Funds Transfer is the quickest method of money transfer and they do not cost anything through 2Checkout. Vendors are able to transfer very small amounts (minimum of $10 USD) from their 2Checkout account to their bank, hence enabling vendors to potentially be paid every week without the penalty of transfer fees. It is recommended by the banking systems for the safety of the vendors that no more than $10,000 USD be transfered per payment for vendors who can receive EFTs, as they are rescindable. Although EFTs are not available in all countries, vendors always have the option of signing up for a Payoneer card to enable their ability receive EFTs.
  • Payoneer — The 2Checkout.com-branded Re-Loadable MasterCard® (powered by Payoneer) is the solution for vendors who wish to be able to accept EFTs in countries that do not offer the EFT service. The opportunity to receive EFTs in a country that does not support them is accompanied by the inherent benefit of being able to receive payments from your 2Checkout account with only a $20 USD minimum payment and no 2Checkout transfer fees (although, Payoneer does charge nominal fees for transferring money to your card). Additionally, it is very handy for those who wish to have direct ATM access to the funds transfered from their 2Checkout account into the Payoneer card.

  • Wire Transfer — Monetary wires are not as quick as EFTs, although they are typically suggested for payments greater than $10,000 USD. Wire transfers give you the assurance that your check-in-hand is as good as cash and no charge-backs can take place against that amount unlike EFTs, which are rescindable.
  • Paper Check — Checks are manually printed from our 3rd-party processor and then mailed out to the address you specify within the Banking Wizard.
