You may signup for a Payoneer card by logging into the new 2Checkout sellers area (va). From here you can select the “Account” tab on your account homepage and then select “Bank Account” from the Account menu. You may then click the Payoneer button and select the "Get your Pre-Paid MasterCard Now" button on the lower right side of the page and complete the signup process.

I received my payoneer card but after reading the fees I would much rather receive my payouts via paypal. I already have a similar but superior card with PayPal (mastercard debit card).

PayPal debit card:
zero activation fee
zero monthly fee
zero payment loading fee
funds received into paypal are IMMEDIATELY available on the card

Comparing that to payoneer:
$10 activation fee
$3 monthly fee
and it sounds like I am required to pay a fee to have my 2Co payments available on the card. I need to perform an action to confirm the payment and then I have to wait 2-4 days for the funds to be available! Sounds like a bit of a hassle.

Can someone confirm if there is a fee for loading the Payoneer card or not?

Maybe 2CO should look into cutting their own deal with MasterCard? It sure looks like Payoneer is performing a very very modest middle man role and is trying to cram silly fees in wherever they can.

the Payoneer MasterCard looks good but after reviewing the fees I feel there are better cards on the market, like the Bank Freedom Prepaid MasterCard. http://www.bankfreedom.com

I wanted to mention that my first impression with payoneer card is very good. I had doubts whether I’m going to use it or not but I wanted to give it a shot as bearing international wire fees are pretty hard on me. I applied for the card and after long wait (I guess it took 3-4 weeks), I’ve received it. Activated on their site online and send some money from my 2checkout.com account (BTW. 2checkout should really allow us to send any amount we want to the card or wires instead of forcing sending entire account amount but well this is another story). Then I go to an ATM and tried to withdraw money. And I got it without problems! It really works as promised.

Before using the card I asked payoneer staff whether there are any “other fees” related to ATM withdrawel (other than announced payoneer fee) and they said ATM owner can cut a commission. So I was worried to see how much this commission would be with my withdrawal. I don’t know whether I’m just plain lucky but in this withdrawal I didn’t pay any commissions to ATM owner. The only cut was the payoneer’s 2.xx international ATM withdrawal fee. If this goes this way, I can say that I’ll be very happy with this card. But if I have to pay a large commission next time, I can always complain. Well maybe this wouldn’t be payoneer’s fault but still just an incident can render the card useless for me.

Instead of sending this email:

“Your card is blocked. We took all your money. Good bye!”

…your company should send email like this:

“Mister X who loaded money for you asked for chargeback. Therefore, we blocked your account temporary. Please contact Mister X directly to resolve the situation.”

Don’t you think so?

joomlaline, the situation you describe is an example to the high level of security and protection we keep at Payoneer. Your client loaded privately money into your card and later charged it back. This is the most typical situation that raises a fraud flag on our end. Facing this we block the card immediately until further investigation. We have no way to know that this is a false report of fraud unless your client contacts us and cancel the charge back request.

Although an inconvenience occurred to you, and I am sorry for this, you should be comfortable knowing that we are highly alert to any illegitimate activity.

I hope that clarifies the situation and we are here if you have any questions.
