Which Payment Method Does UpWork Use?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 11:22 am

UpWork is a popular freelancing platform that allows businesses to connect with remote workers from all over the world. One of the questions that we often get asked is, “Which payment method does UpWork use?”

UpWork offers two different payment methods for businesses to use when paying freelancers – PayPal and Direct Deposit. PayPal is the most popular payment method on UpWork, and is used by the majority of businesses. Direct Deposit is a newer payment method that is growing in popularity, especially with businesses that are based in the United States.

PRO TIP: Upwork may use different payment methods for different countries. For example, in the United States, Upwork uses PayPal as its primary payment method. However, in some other countries, Upwork may use a different payment method, such as wire transfer. If you are not sure which payment method Upwork uses in your country, please contact Upwork support.

So, which payment method should you use on UpWork? If you are based in the United States, then Direct Deposit is the best option for you.

If you are based outside of the United States, then PayPal is your best bet. Ultimately, it all comes down to personal preference and what works best for your business.
