Is It Possible to Receive USD Sent via Transferwise on My Payoneer Account?

I'm about to work remotely for a company based in the US.

They told me I need to send them an IBAN, Country, Postal Code, etc. so they can pay me via Transferwise. Now on my Payoneer account, I have Global Payment Service enabled with a USD receiving account.

Up until now, I've only received funds through freelancer platforms like Upwork. I've filled out the questionnaire and sent Payoneer my ID, and I think Global Payment Service is approved.

My question is... Will there be any problems if I send them my USD receiving account number, or does it have to be a local bank for the IBAN?

Has anyone before successfully transferred USD via Transferwise to their Payoneer checking account?

    I use Transferwise and have recently opend a Payoneer account for comparison's sake - maybe Payoneer is better but I'm yet to use Payoneer because they don't have AU bank accounts activated.

    To my understanding - Payoneer USA accounts only provide the account number , not an address , swift etc - If Transferwise require anything more than a name/account number then I don't think you'll be able to send from TW to Payoneer.
