Payment Methods

Loading
What are payment methods?
Payment methods are how buyers pay for their oDesk assignments. At this time, buyers can pay by MasterCard, Visa, American Express or check (restrictions apply). Each new payment method must be verified so oDesk can uphold our payment guarantee. Verification can often be completed in less than a day. (Learn more about payment methods.)

What are withdrawal methods?
Withdrawal methods are how providers withdraw the earnings of their oDesk assignments. We offer a variety of options: ACH, PayPal, Payoneer MasterCard Debit Card, Moneybookers and Wire Transfer. (Learn more about withdrawal methods.)
How do I pay for my team's assignments?
oDesk automatically bills weekly for time on hourly assignments. On fixed-price assignments, buyers authorize payments as necessary. Once authorized, these payments are also billed automatically. (Learn more about paying for assignments.)
How do I withdraw my earnings?
Your earnings are made available based on the oDesk payment schedule. Withdrawals are not automatic; your earnings will accrue until you make a withdrawal. (Learn more about withdrawing oDesk earnings.)
