If you’re a new freelancer in the Philippines and are wondering how you can get paid in Upwork, you’re in the right place.

In this article, I’ll discuss how you can get paid in Upwork using GCash and Paypal.

What you need:

1. Paypal Account

The first thing you need to get paid in Upwork is a verified Paypal account.

You will need this account because Upwork will be paying you in dollars, and thus you need a platform that will allow you to accept dollars.

2. GCash Account

The second thing that you need to get paid is a GCash account.

You will need this account to take the money in your Paypal account and use it in the country.

3. Driver’s License, Passport, or Philsys National ID

One important thing to note is that to register and receive payment from Upwork, you need to verify your identity. So, they will ask you to provide either of these documents.

Furthermore, to verify your Paypal account, Paypal will also ask you to provide these documents to receive payments.

How to get paid in Upwork Using Gcash and Paypal

  1. Add your Paypal account as a payment method on Upwork.
  2. Withdraw your money from Upwork and choose Paypal as a payment method.
  3. Go to Paypal and convert your money from USD to PHP.
  4. Log into GCash and connect your Paypal account.
  5. Press “Cash-in” in GCash and choose Paypal.
  6. Withdraw your money.
  7. Enjoy!
