I see that PCBway, who I usually use on a regular basis has dropped Paypal, and replaced it with Payoneer.
Any one have experience with it?
It appears to be a world wide source for payment .

I don't have experience with Payoneer. There is a discussion about PCBWay's payment issues here

I tried to place an order with PCBWay at the end of December 2025 and they didn't offer any way to pay other than a bank transfer with a $30 surcharge which was more than the cost of the order including shipping. So I ordered from JLCPCB which was cheaper and the same kind of (good) experience that I've had from PCBWay over the past few years on about 20 orders. I think I'll stick to JLCPCB in future, but will check the PCBWay price to check it's not significantly cheaper, which is the only reason I'd switch back.

I have always had very good experience with PCBway, i.e. cheap, also fast delivery, even using the cheapest (~$7) delivery has been 7-10 days !
I have always used Paypal in the past, but now they have switched.

That's the same as my experience. I always used the cheapest shipping option. I didn't keep a record of the time from order to delivery though. For my one and only order from JLPCB it was 11 days between placing the order and arriving at my house in the UK.
