Non-US Resident’s Guide to Receiving Payments from Affiliate Programs

If you’re an affiliate marketer living outside of the USA, it can be a challenge to get paid with Amazon and other popular affiliate programs.

Most companies offer check payments, but they can take a long time to come. Aside from that, banks also charge up to $50 per check to cash it, along with a very bad exchange rate.

In this article, I’ll be introducing you to a solution called Payoneer which I’ve been using for the last 4 years to fully receive my affiliate commissions.

Payoneer is no doubt the best solution to getting paid from US or EU based companies, as if you have your own US or EU based bank account.

The way it works is simple. Payoneer provides you with personal collection account numbers, which allow you to receive payments via ACH transfers from US companies and via SEPA transfers from EU companies, wherever you are in the world.
