Before linking an account, make sure that your account is verified and tax information is added. Freelancer's personal data is a mandatory requirement for transfers to a Chilean bank account.

  • To check the verification status or start account verification, go to Profile page by clicking to your name in the Menu.

  • To enter tax information use the instructions below.

Linking a national currency account

To link a Chilean bank account, go to Finances, select Payment methods, and click Bank account.

Important! The freelancer's name, taxpayer ID, and residential address must match those of the account's beneficiary. The bank account must be denominated in the national currency. Bank Accounts in other currencies cannot be used for payments.

An SMS with a confirmation code will be sent to your phone. After you enter the code, select your bank and provide the bank account details:

  • Choose your bank in the Bank drop-down menu. The list of supported banks see in the table below.

  • Select the Account Type: Checking, Savings or Vista account

  • Fill in the Bank account number.

  • Click the check box to agree to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy.

  • Save your account details by clicking Link.

Depending on the freelancer’s tax status, transfers to a Chilean bank account can be a subject to tax withholding. That means making payments to a Chilean bank account requires tax information.

Adding Tax Information

  • In your account, go to Finances and select the tab Tax information

  • Click Document type and select RUT. If you have passed verification with the other document, then contact support to change the uploaded document for RUT. Please note that a legal entity's (company's ) RN number cannot be used for payouts in Solar Staff.

  • Enter the document number of your RUT under the Document number or code. You may enter in both ways following the examples: 33444111-3 or 334441113. Please note that a legal entity's (company's ) RN number cannot be used for payouts in Solar Staff.

  • Carefully review the data and press Enter tax information.
