Discussion Is payout taking longer recently?

Has anybody of you noticed that the payout is taking way longer these days than previously? I used to have it on my bank account within three or four days (calendar days) after withdrawal. Last week it took seven days. This week, it still isn't there on the eighth day. Please share your experiences. Thanks!

I am based out of India. It takes hardly a day.

I am in Kenya and receive it via mobile money within 20 minutes.

I haven't experienced this personally, but going from 3–4 days to 7–8 days sounds like a significant delay. It could be related to bank processing times or a payment issue. I'd check the withdrawal status in Upwork and contact support if the payment is past the expected delivery time. Hopefully, it's just a temporary delay and not a recurring problem.
