After I posted my review of Payoneer’s Virtual US Bank Account offering many of you asked me how you can obtain a Payoneer prepaid debit card. As I’ve mentioned in that review, you cannot obtain a debit card directly from Payoneer, instead you have to get it from one of Payoneer’s payment solutions partners.
Payoneer has partnered with many online businesses to offer them the possibility to make mass payouts easier, faster and more convenient for them and those who will receive them. If you are not already making money from one of Payoneer’s many partners, you will have to start by signing up with one of them.
Here is a list of all Payoneer partners that I could easily identify. No doubt there are probably more partners available, so this list is by no means complete. I will add more Payoneer partners to the list as I come across them. If you’re one of Payoneer’s payment solutions partner and you would like your site posted on the list give me a shout at alan at alansmoneyblog.com

Which ones should you choose? Well that obviously depends on how you prefer to make money online. For example if you’re an online merchant the 2CheckOut would be the logical choice. If you run a blog or website and would like to sell advertising space then Text Link Ads would in that case be the logical choice.
Google some of these websites out and find out if they’re right for you.
Now once you’ve decided which Payoneer partner to go with, proceed to the next step which is figuring out how to order a Payoneer card from one of these partner websites. As always it varies from partner to partner so don’t be shy and ask the website’s customer support crew for assistance.
As an example, getting a Payoneer card through Text Link Ads is one of the easiest methods that comes to my mind at the moment. All that you have to do is click on “Edit Account” in your members section and then look for “*Would you prefer to be paid via check, payoneer or paypal?”. Select “Payoneer” from that list and then click the “Update Account” button.
You should then be redirected to a pre-application page where you will be given information on the advantages of using the Payoneer option. The next step is to click the button “Apply” at the end of the page so that you are redirected to the application form on the Payoneer website.
The next step is to fill in the form with your info and send the form.
Shortly after the application process is complete, an email will be sent to the address you provided informing you that your order has been received. Once the application is approved, you will receive a confirmation email and the card will be mailed within 2 business days.
Once you have card in your hands simply follow the activation instructions in the welcome letter and you’re all set!
Update (Dec 26,08): Thanks goes out to Gregory B for pointing out that you don’t have to have a different payoneer card for each payoneer parter.
You can receive payments from several partners into one Payoneer card. To achieve this you would have to go through the complete registration for one partner, to obtain the physical card.
Once you receive your card from this partner, you will have to go through a very short registration process for each additional partner, as follows: on the Payment Method page, instead of pressing the button to sign up for a card, press the link (usually placed above the button) that says “I already have a card”
And with that we’ve reached the end of this post. Thanks for your attention and for visiting my blog.
Cheers,
Alan
