It is easy to send any size of payment to U.S online, but when it comes to receive money from there, all sorts of hurdles crop up:

1)You need to have a minimum balance of 100$.

2)You need to have an account in the U.S.

3)Only your credit card can be used, not debit card etc.

Any way out?

  4. Yes, it's possible, no matter where you live. There are many ways to receive money from abroad. Most commonly used are:

    1. Checks - you provide address, check is sent to you, you carry it to the bank and deposit it to your bank account. You must have local bank account and there is waiting period up to one month before the check is cleared. This is how it works in my country, although in India things may be different. Call your bank and ask them how cashing foreign checks works.

    2. Wire transfer - you must have bank account in your local bank. You provide details of your bank and money is transfered to your account within 5 to 7 days.

    3. Money can be sent to you through payment processors like Paypal, Moneybookers, E-gold, etc. You must have accounts in these processors and opening accounts is free. All you have to provide is an email address or account number and you can receive money from almost any country. Money can then be sent from payment processor to you through check or wire transfer.

    4. Western Union - one of the fastest options for receiving money. You can get it the same day it was sent.

    5. Debit cards - also one of the fastest options (iKobo). Debit card is sent to you through mail and you can withdraw money from any ATM machine the same day it is sent to your online account.

    There are probably many more options, but these are the ones I know of. Minimum balance is nearly always a must, but it can be lower than $100. I received once a check with $20.00.

    Jobs you can do online and earn this way are computer and Internet related (I.T.). Note that you must be able to complete these jobs and provide results in order to make money. Read more here:

    In order to win a job, always bid for more of them at the same time (up to 10) and offer your services for lower prices (until you get a lot of positive feedbacks). If you lack expertise to complete any of these jobs, I suggest you finish some web designing and/or graphic designing and/or programming, etc. course and then bid for jobs.

    They also have a lot of writing and data entry jobs, but these are much trickier to get due to competition.

    This is probably the only honest way to earn online from home. Minimum balance necessary for cashing out is $30.

    Hope this helps!

    Best regards,
