Activate your Payoneer card is easy and just need to follow the steps described in the activation letter that is sent with the Card to your physical address.
Usually there are different ways to activate your card, calling by phone number is a possibility, but the easier way is activating it through the web. To do that you need to login to Payoneer account center:
- Click on My account
- Enter Username and Password (this was set when you applied for the card)
- Click on Activate Your Card
- Select 4 digit PIN number and submit
- Receive your confirmation email for activation
Then, you can start using your card in any ATM or online. Also, some countries allow you to do cash back operations, that is instead of using your card at ATM you can request money at the counter.
Once you start using your Payoneer Card, you can apply for an online virtual bank account. This has a strong benefit if you are non-US citizen, since will allow you to do banking operations with US banks without leaving your country.
If you already had funds in an old Payoneer card, then all the funds will be automatically transferred to your new card. As they said in the confirmation screen: “If your new card replaces a previously active card, funds and services will be transferred from the previous card to the new one. Please allow 2 hours for the transfer to complete. Do not use it unless funds are loaded. Some ATM’s will “eat” your card, if you use it without any funds available.”
Payoneer do not have affiliate programs yet, if you planned to earn some money referring users to Payoneer. I think you should wait until they implement the affiliate system.
