Common Errors Setting up Payments

Entering your bank details can be a bit daunting.

It's easy to make a mistake when entering IBANs and other account information when setting up your payments.

IBAN Issues

One of the most frequent issues freelancers experience is usually caused by a small typo entering in the IBAN or Account Number.

Please ensure that:

  1. There is no trailing whitespace after the entry (e.g. "IEULSB123XXXXX ")

  2. The characters exactly match your IBAN or Account Number, taking care not to confuse "O" with "0"
