BusinessRe: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by Babtunz: 8:52am On Feb 22, 2023
wasiubello:
Please guys i need some clarification on Geegpay, i have been using payoneer to make withdraws from Upwork but their charge is much, so i decided to use Geegpay.

So i link my Geegpay Well Fargo account to upwork, and later make a withdraws of $190 since Saturday, and up till now is haven't see the money.

So my question to those that have used Geegpay on upwork, how long does it usually take less than 5: hours for withdrawal to reflect.

Note, i have been making withdrawal from payoneer to Geegpay, and it will take less than 6 hour's to reflect.

I. Don't know if because i made the withdrawal on weekend.

I need to hear from you those that have used Geegpay to withdraw from upwork
You are right. Your transaction is delayed because you made it on a weekend. US banks typically do not process transactions on weekends so you're very likely to experience some delay.

Since you performed the transaction on Saturday I think it ought to have been delivered by now. You can try reaching out to both GeegPay and Upwork's customer support for help, too.

Also, try and check the GeegPay bank details you added on Upwork to make sure you didn't make any mistakes.

I hope you get your money soon.

Hi guys.

Please, what's your recommended withdrawal method for Upwork that does not leave money on the table and is reliable? I thought Wise would be a great option, but I learned they are no longer one. Payoneer is out of the question for obvious reasons.

I'd really appreciate the help.
Please give reasons for the bolded above.

You shouldn't be using internet Starlink if you haven't resolved nepa issues,

Most it guys earning above 500k a month in Nigeria have that resolved already

Let me poke my nose.
Yes Upwork to Wise works, you need the USD account from Wise, and it costs 20$( this is not taken from your account, just for verification). It can be verified with a Payoneer card ( at least that's how I did mine, chipper did not work, neither did UBA Prepaid $ card)

You can use Wise to receive funds outside of Upwork, from anyone either using your URL / email or giving out the Bank details.

Advisable to keep your money in Wise? I don't know, but honestly, I don't have any confidence in the Nigerian banking system anymore. I have resolved to keep my money in Wise till further notice. The fact that I can use it to transfer to a variety of countries and persons, without needing to go to the bank shocked cool
If you wish to receive your funds in Naira from Wise, simply withdraw to either Geegpay or Grey or trade it on Paxful for crypto.
The decision is yours, depending on your needs.
Thanks a lot, Ayomipoe.
I have made the initial deposit of $20 - I used Payday's virtual card.
Yeah, my lack of trust in Nigerian fintechs is why I'm looking to keep my money elsewhere. Thanks again for this information.
BusinessRe: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by Babtunz:
Hi qtguru, I figured you're one of the few who use Wise here and I have a few questions I need your help with.
1. Does transfer from Upwork to Wise work? And can you use Wise to receive international funds in USD?

2. Is it a good idea to keep my funds in Wise?

Thanks for your response, chief.

I feel this might be useful for anyone trying to improve their proposal writing skills.
The image below is a sample of what the client sees when you submit a cover letter or proposal on Upwork.

I am referring to black Africa. The Arab countries are all better. I have been to Morocco and European level infrastructure but in black Africa no country compares to Nigeria except south Africa.
Oh, I see. Thanks for clarifying.

As in the only African country better than Nigeria is south Africa and that one presently na comma.
On what basis? There are at least 3 African countries that are way better to live in apart from South Africa.

Great writeup! Thank you! But why do you think programming is a high income skill and not a high income profession?

It's both in my opinion.

It's not about a threat. It's about an new disruption and That's what a community as this is all about, so we can discuss about trends in tech.

Have you been to a startup peach before? Do you know what it takes to get funds from VCs?

Check all Nigerian Tech Startups, their funders have extensive experience in the filed at which they later built on. From Flutterware, Paystack, Paga, Kuda, etc.

This is a developer thread, and the aim is to have discussions on our Field. smiley
Hello chief, what is a startup peach? Do you mean pitch or it's me who's unfamiliar with the term?

HI, I am so sorry, I have been moving around a lot lately and have not been able to sit and edit the tutorial, however, I went online to find something similar and I found this one, it is basically almost the same thing, maybe a few changes on the website tho, but it is nothing much. Please follow this and let me know how it goes.
It's all good! But I can't find anything attached to your message. Can you try sending it again? Thanks.

It is both for individual and businesses, as long as you have an NIN, I did mine in the evening and got it the next morning, totally online and free. Would have made a tutorial on it today but today was a busy day for me and can't start doing anything, but hopefully tomorrow.
Hi Cutezt! Still looking forward to the tutorial. smiley

I've got plans to go to the FIRS office in my state but my week has been hectic so far. I'm also partly stalling because of the tutorial; I'm thinking the tutorial is all I need and I may not need to visit their office to get this done.

I hope you send it in soon. Thank you!

Hi Cutezt! I'm thinking you missed sending the tutorial or probably you had a long day today? Feel free to send it in at your convenience. I appreciate it!

Everything can be done online and in less than 24 hours. I will make a tutorial on it soon.
Ah, that would be awesome! But I thought online registration isn't meant for individuals. Am I wrong about that?
I already sent the FIRS branch in my state an email on the whole process, hopefully they get back to me soon so I can get this over with.

I don’t encourage anyone to use false information anywhere. It is better to get one ASAP, hopefully it isn’t expensive.
I didn't know that could count as false information. Thanks for letting me know.

You have to get one. I heard they get it through FIRS. I think any “individual” that has worked a 9-5 in a reputable organisation should have one.
Geez. Thanks, but I haven't worked a 9-5 before. Can I use someone else's?

Hello all, please how do I go about TIN verification on Upwork? I don't have a Tax Identification Number and I read it's mandatory for non-US residents to provide their tax details. Has anyone here without a TIN been able to solve this yet?
I'd appreciate any help I can get as regards this. Thank you!
