Title: IS payoneer card in EU
Post by: antoniodalbore on March 25, 2009, 04:37: Hi pals,

there is anybody having experience with the IS Payoneer card in Europe in terms of cost of transactions?

The pricing scheme on the site say that for transaction outside US the fee is "$0.00 + upto 3% of transaction amount". What do exactly translate in real life?

There is anything else hidden that I should know?

Thanks!

"With regards to the up to 3% represents the FX , this is based on the daily rates set by MasterCard and are collected by the issuing bank. Our agreement with the bank ensures that we are at the lowest spectrum of the marketplace and we track this information comparing it to AMEX, PayPal, CITI, Chase and randomly others."

I think use this debit card is wrong. :(
PayPal is the best.

Sample: from $230 on my debit card i get only about $160. :'(

I don't know how you calculated that. I tried the Payoneer card with both, paying online services and withdrawing money at the ATM. In the first case, I didn't note any fees beyond the $2/$1 per month. And in the second case I paid a transaction/foreign exchange fee of about 2.5%, so from $300 more than $290 arrived in my hand.

BTW I had a problem with paypal - they have the worst client's service I have ever seen.

just to inform all of you pals that I got the cards and also successfully loaded with first batch of funds coming from my IS account
.
Just want to alert other potential photogs that in case you want immediate loading of the fund, Payoneer charge u 3$. Normal loading (no fee) it will take about four days.

bye!

Post by: sharpshot on May 14, 2009, 08:57: Moneybookers conversion rates are much better than paypal and there is only a small fee for withdrawals. Can payoneer beat them?

+++ You initial replacement card will arrive without the iStockphoto branding. As soon as all the ducks are in a row a iStockphoto branded card will be sent out to you.

What!???

Three cards or two replacements in short period?
