This article explains the basics of withdrawing your earnings on goLance: which withdrawal methods exist, how to request a withdrawal, and how long each method usually takes
1. Withdrawal-Method Types
goLance currently supports four categories of withdrawal methods:
- Bank Transfers (Local rail) – Fast local bank routes in selected countries. Some regions allow local currency as well as USD; others are USD-only.
- Bank Transfers (SWIFT or “Priority”) – USD wires that can reach virtually any bank worldwide. Intermediary banks may deduct extra fees that goLance cannot control.
- Digital Wallets – Payoneer is fully supported; PayPal is available on request in eligible regions.
- Crypto Wallets – BTC, ETH, USDT (ERC-20 or TRC-20), and USDC (ERC-20). Always choose the correct network and double-check your address.
When you add a bank account, use the exact name on your bank record and the correct IBAN or SWIFT code. Invalid details can delay or bounce the transfer.
2. Requesting a Withdrawal
- Open Payments → Move Money → Make Withdrawal.
- Enter the amount you want to withdraw.
- Pick your withdrawal method. You will immediately see how much goLance will send after our fee.
- Withdraw. If you choose a SWIFT transfer, remember that intermediary banks might deduct an additional handling fee after funds leave goLance.
- Your withdrawal request appears in Transactions right away.
3. Timing – When Money Actually Arrives
- Digital Wallets and Crypto are usually the quickest. After our security checks finish, funds settle in minutes to a few hours.
- Local Bank Transfers often arrive in one to four business days, depending on local banking rails and holidays.
- SWIFT Transfers vary from two to seven business days. Weekends, bank holidays, and extra compliance reviews at intermediary or destination banks can extend the timeline.
Even if you have withdrawn successfully five times in a row, the sixth transfer can still be delayed if an intermediary bank flags something for review. This is normal banking compliance.
4. Tracking Your Withdrawals
Every withdrawal you submit appears in the Transaction History immediately. If it shows “Pending”, it is either:
- Still in the security period, or
- Being processed by our payment provider
5. First-Time Checklist
- Add or verify at least one withdrawal method in Payments → Withdrawals.
- Make sure your bank details (name, IBAN, SWIFT) exactly match your bank statement.
6. FAQ
Why is my balance zero even though I see a payment from my client? The funds are still in the security period. They will appear in Available Balance on the release date shown in your calendar.
Why was an extra fee deducted from my wire transfer? Intermediary banks on SWIFT routes sometimes charge their own handling fees. goLance has no control over these charges.
It has been four business days, and my bank transfer hasn’t arrived—what now? Check for local bank holidays or intermediary bank reviews. SWIFT transfers can take up to seven business days. If it exceeds that, contact goLance support.
Local transfer isn’t available in my country—why? Not all regions have local rails yet. If local transfer is unavailable, USD SWIFT is the fallback.
Can I withdraw in crypto even if my contract is in USD? Yes. We convert USD to your selected crypto at the current rate; network fees are deducted from the withdrawal.
Why didn’t goLance flag my incorrect IBAN immediately? Banks validate IBANs only once the transfer is in the banking network. If it’s invalid, the payment will return or be rerouted, causing delays.
Can I cancel a pending withdrawal? If the request is still on security hold, open a support ticket; cancellation is possible in limited cases. Once funds are sent, cancellation is no longer possible.
Is there a minimum or maximum per withdrawal? Yes. Minimums and maximums vary by method and country—see the limits displayed in the withdrawal form.
How do I change my withdrawal method? Remove or add it in Payments → Withdrawal Methods.
Keep your withdrawal details accurate, monitor your Payment Release Calendar, and you’ll always know when your earnings are ready to land in your pocket.
