I recently activated my Payoneer prepaid MasterCard card, with US payment service, and I need some money in it so I can link it with my Paypal account, so is it possible to transfer money from Western Union directly to my Payoneer?

    No, it's not possible to sent money from Western Union to Payoneer directly.

    It may however be possible by using an intermediary, better known as an exchange. They will accept the money then and transfer the money to your account or a fee, for instance using ACH. (US Payment Service) However I'm not aware of any exchange doing this and also would like to urge to be careful with this kind of services as they quite often are scams, or turn into scams.

    The most convenient way to get your Payoneer card loaded is by adding the US Payment Service details as a "checking account" to your PayPal account and then withdrawing (a part of) your PayPal balance, or getting paid by EU/US companies.
