When it comes to money, you need options that work for you, and one of the options you might select may be a digital bank such as Facebank, WISE, or banks that partner with WISE.

We do accept digital bank accounts for both billing and for payments to you. However, please be aware if you use a digital bank account, we may not be able to help you if you have trouble with making a payment or receiving funds.

Digital banks work through a partner bank to process transactions with Upwork. Due to that, tracing digital bank transactions is not always possible, and even when we can trace the transaction it may take a long time.
