Cash redemption Paypal?

Hi everyone!

I was trying to redeem cash and there is no paypal option. How do I transfer it to PayPal

If it can’t, why does makerworld need the account for doing the cash redemption?

Commercial membership is PayPal

Exclusive cash redemption uses bank transfer

How does that work? I haven’t actually tried because it says it gets transferred to my creator wallet. And the only thing in there is my PayPal account. Since I’m a Canadian, PayPal takes a hefty skim off the top and is a pain in the butt to get money out of.

Its pretty simple once it is in your creator wallet. You just request a payout, select the method, then input your banking information. I’ve only done it once, even with the “fastest” option, it took a few days to go through.

It is annoying that it can not go directly as a paypal transfer. Although, depending on how your paypal account is set up, you will have the needed information in there already. You need an account number and a routing number from whichever bank, then your personal information.

Thank you so much! That is much better for me as a Canadian. I’m still saving for a H2C but after that it’d be nice to have some pocket change.

While Paypal seems like a good choice for others, for Canadian creators there’s a whole lot of acrobatics before we can get our money. MakerWorld deposits in USD but to get USD from Paypal in Canada you either have to have a brick and mortar bank account physically located in the US or pay Paypal’s markup for converting funds from USD to CAD. It’s a huge pain in the butt and why I pulled my commercial membership from MakerWorld :weary_face:
