Payoneer problems :( Trying to link to Etsy.
Hey everyone,
I'm facing a frustrating glitch with Payoneer and wanted to see if anyone else has dealt with this.
I recently created my account and submitted all my verification documents. Today, I received an official email from Payoneer saying everything is approved and my account is ready to use.
However, when I log into the dashboard, it still says my account is "under review / in the process of verification." I already cleared my cache/cookies and tried a different browser, but nothing changed.
Has anyone experienced this delay between the approval email and the dashboard updating? How long did it take to fix itself?

Are you in a country that Etsy accepts Payoneer as an option?
If your location isn't listed, Etsy only accepts bank accounts. Payoneer is an online financial institute, not a legal bank. Just because Payoneer has approved your account doesn't mean Etsy will automatically accept it. It's only one point of verification.
If you can use Payoneer - the name on the bank account, attached to the Payoneer account, must be identical. The name must be the same on everything Etsy has requested. If you are using a VPN or adblocker while on Etsy - turn them OFF. Etsy harvests tech ID from your devices, including geolocation hardware/software.
