The story of Payoneer is best told through the stories of our customers and partners

Payoneer serves small businesses, global marketplace platforms, mobile wallets and SaaS platforms that are changing the way we buy, sell, consume, engage, work, earn and learn in our increasingly digital and interconnected global world. What they all have in common is that they see a world of opportunity that is growing because of digitalization and creating unbounded potential to build and grow a successful business. The following stories include some of the winners of the annual Payoneer Entrepreneurship Awards, and all illustrate how our customers and partners have gained value from their relationship with Payoneer:

				Bukalapak, a leading marketplace and ecommerce platform based in Indonesia with 100-plus million customers and 13.5 million sellers, partnered with Payoneer as their first mass payout partner to help facilitate their international expansion. They chose Payoneer because we’re uniquely positioned in the market, offering capabilities to enable seamless and secure payment solutions for their overseas sellers in Southeast Asia and beyond.
				Vimo, a leading mobile wallet in Vietnam, joined our Payoneer for Banks program, which experienced triple-digit growth in both volumes and customer applications last year. Through the partnership, the best of Payoneer’s global capabilities are now integrated together into Vimo’s local offering in Vietnam.
				AutoDS, a dropshipping platform headquartered in Israel, helps over 10,000 merchants throughout the US and Europe to automate their online sales processes. AutoDS relies upon Payoneer’s B2B AP/AR services to get paid by its clients, while integrating with our API to enable other Payoneer customers to pay with their account balance.
				Candice Deepler from Australia is the founder of TrueSooth, a brand created by women for women, delivering solution-based breast pain relief products. They use Payoneer to get paid for their sales on ecommerce marketplaces in the US, as well as using B2B AP/AR to get paid for their B2B transactions with international wholesalers. They use the funds in their multi-currency account to pay their suppliers and use the Payoneer Digital Mastercard to pay for online business expenses.
				Archana Garodia Gupta from India is the founder & CEO of Touchstone, a company that manufactures and exports jewellery and handicrafts to consumers around the world. Passionate about preserving and disseminating Indian heritage to the world, they combine the creativity of rural artisans together with the global reach of multiple ecommerce channels. The business has grown 15x over the last 4 years. They use Payoneer to get paid by global marketplaces and leverage our partner ecosystem to connect with logistics and taxation providers, while also using the Payoneer VAT service.
				Guadalupe Rincón from Mexico is a partner at Ideaphilos Comunicacion, a global digital marketing agency. In 2021 they experienced 500% year-over-year growth, largely as a result of strong growth in the US and Canada. They use Payoneer’s B2B AP/AR services to bill their international customers as well as receiving payments from Storyhunter, a Payoneer mass payouts customer that has built a platform connecting people with the top video creators around the world.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

This section describes key corporate governance principles and practices that we have adopted. Complete copies of the charters of the committees of the Board, our Corporate Governance Guidelines and our Code of Conduct and Ethics, described below, can be found in the Governance section on our website at investor.payoneer.com/governance. Alternatively, you can request a copy of any of these documents free of charge by writing to: Corporate Secretary, c/o Payoneer Global Inc., 150 W 30th St, New York, New York 10001. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement.

Board Composition

Our Board of Directors currently consists of eight members. In accordance with our amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws, our directors are divided into three classes serving staggered
three-year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, our directors will be elected to succeed the class of directors whose terms have expired. Our current directors are divided among the three classes as follows:

•

Class I directors consist of Avi Zeevi and Scott H. Galit;

•

Class II directors consist of Rich Williams, John C. (Hans) Morris and Amir Goldman; and

•

Class III directors consist of Heather Tookes, Christopher (Woody) Marshall and Pamela H. Patsley.

Only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective terms. Each director’s term continues until the election and qualification of their successor, or their earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, or removal.

Independence of the Board of Directors

The Board has affirmatively determined that Messrs. Zeevi, Williams, Morris, Goldman, and Marshall, and Mses. Tookes and Patsley are independent directors within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq listing standards regarding the definition of “independent” (the “Independent Directors”). In making these determinations, our Board of Directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our Company and all other facts and circumstances our Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, and the transactions involving them described in the section titled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions”. There are no family relationships between any director and any of our executive officers.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board of Directors is currently chaired by Mr. Zeevi. As a general policy, our Board of Directors believes that separation of the positions of Chair of our Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer reinforces the independence of our Board of Directors from management, creates an environment that encourages objective oversight of management’s performance and enhances the effectiveness of our Board of Directors as a whole. As such, Mr. Galit serves as our Chief Executive Officer while Mr. Zeevi serves as the Chair of our Board of Directors but is not an officer.

In addition, all members of the Audit Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee are Independent Directors.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

One of the Board’s key functions is informed oversight of the Company’s risk management process. The Board believes that its current leadership structure facilitates its risk oversight responsibilities. In particular, the Board

| 2022 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

believes the majority-independent Board and independent Board committees provide a well-functioning and effective balance to an experienced Chief Executive Officer.

The Audit Committee manages risk by overseeing the integrity of the Company’s financial statements and internal controls; the qualifications, independence and performance of the Company’s independent auditor; the performance of the Company’s internal audit function; and the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Audit Committee reviews and discusses with members of the Risk Committee of the Board and with management the Company’s major financial risk exposures and steps taken to monitor and control such exposures.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee manages risk by reviewing and evaluating the size, composition, function and duties of the Board consistent with its needs; overseeing the succession process in the event the Board determines that a new Chief Executive Officer should be hired; making recommendations to the Board as to determinations of director independence; and developing and recommending to the Board the Corporate Governance Guidelines, reviewing and reassessing the Code of Conduct and Ethics for the Company and overseeing compliance with such Guidelines and Code.

The Compensation Committee manages risk by reviewing and assessing risks arising from the Company’s employee compensation policies and practices and whether any such risks are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the company.

The Risk Committee manages risk by overseeing the Company’s affairs in the areas of enterprise risk management and certain compliance matters, including review of key risk issues and emerging risks that may be applicable to the Company, discussion of management’s risk mitigation processes and evaluation of potential remediation plans.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the Board held eleven meetings. Each Board member attended 75% or more of the aggregate meetings of the Board and of the committees on which they served held in 2021 during the period for which they were a director or committee member. The Company’s directors are expected to attend our annual meetings of stockholders. We did not hold a 2021 annual meeting of stockholders because we were not a publicly traded company prior to June 28, 2021.

Our Independent Directors meet from time to time in executive session as part of Board or committee meetings. The Board and each of our standing independent committees typically hold an executive session of non-management directors (all of whom are Independent Directors) as a part of most regularly scheduled quarterly meeting.

Information Regarding Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board has a number of committees that perform certain functions for the Board. The current committees of the Board are the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Risk Committee. Below is a description of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. The Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee each has authority to engage legal counsel or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities. The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets the applicable Nasdaq listing standards regarding “independence” and that each member has no relationship with the Company that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Audit Committee

The Board has a separately designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58) of the Exchange Act. The Audit Committee was established by the Board on June 25, 2021.

Because we became a public company in late June 2021, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee did not hold any meetings in 2021, as the entire Board reviewed the director qualifications, independence and composition of the Board committees, and the governing policies and committee charters, and approved as necessary and appropriate.

Beginning in 2022, the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, in consultation with the other Committee members, shall determine the frequency and length of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meetings and shall set meeting agendas consistent with the charter. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may delegate its authority to subcommittees or the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, in its discretion.

In evaluating director nominees, the Board, with assistance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, considers a nominee’s qualities, performance and professional responsibilities, but also the then composition of the Board and the challenges and needs of the Board at that time, including issues of judgment, skills, background and experience.

Communications with the Board of Directors

Stockholders or other interested parties wishing to communicate with the Board, the Chair, the independent directors as a group or any individual director may do so by writing to: Corporate Secretary, c/o Payoneer Global Inc., 150 W 30th St, New York, New York 10001.

All communications will be promptly forwarded to the appropriate director(s). Such items that are unrelated to a director’s duties and responsibilities as a Board member may be excluded by our corporate security department, including, without limitation, solicitations and advertisements, junk mail, product-related communications, job referral materials and resumes, surveys, and material that is determined to be illegal or otherwise inappropriate.

Stockholders may recommend a candidate to the Board by following the procedures described above. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate director candidates recommended by shareholders in the same manner as other director candidates.

Code of Conduct and Ethics

Our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other executive and senior officers. The full text of our Code of Conduct and Ethics is available in the Governance section of our website at investor.payoneer.com/governance. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement. We intend to disclose future amendments to our Code of Conduct and Ethics, or any waivers of such code, on our website set forth above.

Our ESG initiatives in 2021

Employees

As the COVID-19 pandemic continued to affect all our stakeholders, in 2021 we took important steps to help support the customers we serve, including employees. Our international employee survey — We Say — garnered a 95% participation rate. Our leadership team and risk experts continuously monitor various risks that may impact our employees globally and provide guidance to ensure their health and safety. We announced a hybrid return to work model to ensure our employees have the flexibility they need while also protecting our culture and our collaborative, creative spirit.

Customers

Our core obligation at Payoneer is to ensure the security of our customers’ funds and data. The company deploys multiple layers of risk technology and data protection, both in-house and third-party tools, alongside various procedures to protect the Payoneer platform and monitor customer transactions against fraudulent activities, such as registration fraud, account takeover and other suspicious activities.

Communities

Each year, through the annual Entrepreneurship Awards, Payoneer celebrates entrepreneurs and small businesses everywhere who embody the Company’s mission and values. In 2021, Payoneer awarded its sixth annual Entrepreneurship Awards, with 60% of recipients this year being female-led businesses, and for the first year, we included the “Socially Responsible Business of the Year” category.

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we provided our communities with global support through charitable and volunteer opportunities for organizations and causes that strengthen the local communities where we work and live. Among these: Fintech In Action, Hat Not Hate, WeHero, Project Sunshine, and Urban Synergy.

Looking ahead

In 2022, we are committed to increasing our ESG efforts. With oversight from our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, we are continuing to develop an ESG program that aligns with our purpose to imagine, engineer and inspire a universal future for commerce in which the entire world can realize its potential. As part of this effort, we recently appointed a Senior Director responsible for overseeing Payoneer’s social impact and ESG activity. We are focusing on increasing our transparency and accountability and look forward to continuing to share our progress regularly and transparently in these areas in 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, the compensation for each NEO generally consisted of a base salary, performance-based bonus, standard employee benefits, and stock option and restricted stock unit awards under the Company’s equity plan. These elements (and the amounts of compensation and benefits under each element) were selected because we believed they were necessary to help attract and retain executive talent, which is fundamental to our success. Below is a more detailed summary of the current executive compensation as it relates to our NEOs.

Cash Compensation

Base Salary

The NEOs receive base salaries to compensate them for services rendered to the Company. The base salaries are intended to provide a fixed component of compensation that is commensurate with each executive’s experience,

role and responsibilities. As of the end of 2021, the base salaries for our NEOs were $450,000, $400,000 and 960,000 NIS for Messrs. Galit, Clarkson and Kraft respectively.

The actual base salary paid to each NEO for 2021 is set forth above in the Summary Compensation Table in the column entitled “Salary.”

2021 Bonus

Each NEO is eligible to receive an annual bonus for their performance in relation to Company and individual goals established and evaluated by the Compensation Committee of the Board for 2021. Based on the performance of the Company and each NEO, and at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, the amount of each NEO’s annual bonus is determined. Bonus awards are based on performance over the applicable calendar year and paid on or before March 15 of the following year, subject to the NEOs continued service through the payment date.

In 2021, Messrs. Galit, Clarkson and Kraft were eligible to earn annual cash bonuses targeted at 100%, 100% and 75%, respectively of their base salaries. Each NEO was eligible to earn his bonus based on the attainment of business and personal goals and objectives set and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board (prorated for the portion of the year for which the NEO provided services to the Company).

The actual bonus earned pursuant to the above by each NEO for 2021 is set forth in the Summary Compensation Table in the column entitled “Bonus”.

Employee Benefit and Stock Plans

Our NEOs are entitled to participate in our compensation and benefits plans as described below.

2021 Incentive Plan

We adopted and obtained stockholder approval of the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) in connection with the Company’s business combination with FTAC Olympus Acquisition Corp. completed on June 25, 2021 (the “Reorganization”), under which 38,016,011 shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to awards. Any employee, non-employee director or consultant of Payoneer is generally eligible to receive an award under the 2021 Plan, to the extent that an offer of such award is permitted by applicable law, stock market or exchange rules, and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations.

The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of stock options (including incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based awards, other stock-based awards, or any combination thereof. No determination has been made as to specific allocations with respect to the types or amounts of ungranted awards that will be granted to specific individuals under the 2021 Plan. Each award, once granted, will be set forth in a separate grant notice or agreement and will indicate the type and terms and conditions of the award.

2017 Plan and 2007 Plans

We maintain the 2007 Share Incentive Plan and the 2007 US Share Incentive Plan, referred to as the 2007 Plans, and the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan, referred to as the 2017 Plan, in order to facilitate the past grant of equity incentives to directors, employees (including some of the NEOs), consultants and other service providers of Payoneer and its affiliates to obtain and retain services of these individuals, which is essential to our long-term success. Unvested awards that were outstanding under the 2017 Plan and the 2007 Plans at the time of the closing of the Reorganization were converted into replacement awards of equivalent value.

2021 Equity Grants

In 2021, pursuant to the 2017 Stock Plan, Mr. Galit was granted awards of 399,500 RSUs and 266,020 options with a per share exercise price of $7.87 (in each case these amounts and exercise price are after taking into account the conversion in the Reorganization). 25% of the RSUs or options, as applicable, vest on the first anniversary of the grant or on such other approved date, as applicable, and the remaining 75% in twelve (12) equal quarterly installments over the following three-year period, in each case subject to Mr. Galit’s continued employment through each vesting date.

In 2021, pursuant to the 2021 Plan, (a) Mr. Galit was granted 20,000 RSUs that vest based on both continued service and the achievement of specified share price performance goals during the thirty (30) and sixty (60) month periods following the closing of the Reorganization (as more fulsomely described in the footnotes to the “Outstanding Equity Awards at 2021 Fiscal Year End” table above), subject to Mr. Galit’s continued employment through the date such share price performance goals are achieved, (b) Mr. Clarkson was granted 1,013,171 RSUs, 25% which vest on August 2, 2022 and the remaining 75% in twelve (12) equal quarterly installments over the following three-year period, in each case subject to Mr. Clarkson’s continued employment through each vesting date, and (c) Mr. Kraft was granted (i) 317,782 RSUs, 25% which vested on March 29, 2022 and the remaining 75% in twelve (12) equal quarterly installments over the following three-year period, in each case subject to Mr. Kraft’s continued employment through each vesting date and (ii) 20,000 RSUs that vest based on both continued service and the achievement of specified share price performance goals during the thirty (30) and sixty (60) month periods following the closing of the Reorganization (as more fulsomely described in the footnotes to the “Outstanding Equity Awards at 2021 Fiscal Year End” table above), subject to Mr. Kraft’s continued employment through the date such share price performance goals are achieved.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We describe below transactions and series of similar transactions, since the beginning of our last fiscal year or currently proposed, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

•

the amounts involved exceeds $120,000; and

•

any of our directors, executive officers or beneficial holders of more than 5% of any class of our capital stock had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Other than as described below, there have not been, nor are there any currently proposed, transactions or series of similar transactions meeting these criteria to which we have been or will be a party other than compensation arrangements, which are described where required under the sections titled “Director Compensation” and “Executive Compensation”.

Viola Credit Facility

On October 28, 2021, a subsidiary of the Company entered into multi-party Receivables Loan and Security Agreement (the “Warehouse Receivables Loan”) for the purpose of external financing of capital advance activity. The lenders are related parties through the Company’s Chair of the Board of Directors’ ownership interest. The Warehouse Receivables Loan was entered into on arm’s length terms.

The Warehouse Receivables Loan bears annual interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 9% and has a revolving maturity of 36 months from the commencement date with a payback period of an additional 6 months after the revolving maturity date. The initial borrowing commitment is $25,000,000 subject to increases at the Company’s request and lender’s discretion up to a total of $100,000,000. Additional commitments will carry annual interest rates ranging from LIBOR plus 7.75% to LIBOR plus 7%. The amount of interest paid during 2021 is $88,831, as well as $2,802 in unused fees. The largest aggregate amount of principal outstanding under the Warehouse Receivables Loan during 2021 was $17,295,379, and the amount thereof outstanding as of March 21, 2022 is $11,799,579. The amount of principal paid during 2021 is $3,765,436.

The facility under the Warehouse Receivables Loan is secured by eligible capital advance receivables at an initial rate of 80% of the total value of the underlying capital advance receivables outstanding. The Company is subject to financial covenants including minimum tangible equity, solvency and unrestricted cash requirements that are assessed based on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Company’s Reorganization, certain of our directors and officers, including our CEO and CFO, and several of the holders of our common stock named in the Beneficial Ownership table, as well as a private warrant holder, entered into a registration rights agreement. The registration rights agreement provides the parties thereto with demand, “piggy-back” and Form S-3 registration rights, subject to certain minimum requirements and customary conditions. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, certain shareholders who are party to the registration rights agreement agreed for a period of time not to transfer or dispose of the Company’s common stock.

Management Loans

On May 12, 2015 and April 28, 2016, Payoneer issued loans to Scott Galit, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in aggregate principal amounts of $353,438 and $809,514, respectively. Each loan had a ten-year term and annual interest rates ranging between 1.45% and 1.53%, in each case, subject to escalation.

The loans were extended to Mr. Galit to cover the exercise price of stock options to purchase shares of Payoneer common stock and the potential tax expense arising as a result of his exercise of such stock options. Mr. Galit repaid these loans in February 2021, prior to the closing of the Reorganization and the Company becoming subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

JOBS Act Explanatory Note

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”).

For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies but not to “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to:

•

not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

•

not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditors report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements;

•

reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; and

•

exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We could be an emerging growth company until the last day of the fiscal year following December 31, 2025, the fifth anniversary of the closing of FTAC Olympus Acquisition Corp.’s initial public offering, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1.07 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would require, among other things, that we have been a public company for at least twelve months and would occur at the end of the fiscal year during which the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700.0 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three-year period. Under Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies may delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this provision of the JOBS Act. As a result, we will not be subject to new or revised accounting standards at the same time as other public companies

that are not emerging growth companies. Therefore, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Because we have elected to take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

Other Information

The management of the Company knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote the shares for which you grant your proxy on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

Pursuant to “Notice and Access” rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials over the internet. Accordingly, we are sending an Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Proxy Availability Notice”) to our stockholders of record. All stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Proxy Availability Notice free of charge or request to receive a printed set of the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the internet or to request a printed copy may be found in the Proxy Availability Notice.

We provided some of our stockholders with paper copies of the proxy materials instead of the Proxy Availability Notice. If you received paper copies of the proxy materials, we encourage you to help us reduce the environmental impact and financial cost of delivering paper proxy materials to stockholders by signing up per the instructions in the Proxy Availability Notice, to receive all of your future proxy materials electronically.

We expect that this Proxy Statement and the other proxy materials will be available to stockholders beginning on or about April 28, 2022.

When and how can I attend the virtual annual meeting?

The Annual Meeting will be held on June 14, 2022, at 9.00 a.m. (Eastern Time) via live video webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PAYO2022.

Only stockholders of record and beneficial owners of shares of our common stock as of the close of business on April 20, 2022 (the “Record Date”), may participate in the Annual Meeting, including voting and asking questions during the virtual Annual Meeting. Stockholders will need the 16-digit control number provided on their proxy card, voting instruction form or notice. We suggest you log in at least 15 minutes before the start of the meeting. If you experience technical difficulties during the check-in process or during the meeting, please consult the information regarding technical assistance available at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PAYO2022 for assistance. You will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting physically in person.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Proxy Availability Notice?

If you receive more than one Proxy Availability Notice, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on each Proxy Availability Notice to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date of April 20, 2022, will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 343,739,876 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If, on April 20, 2022, your shares were registered directly in your name with Payoneer’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote at the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy over the telephone or on the internet as instructed below (see “How do I vote?”) or complete, date, sign and return the proxy card mailed to you to ensure your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee

If, on April 20, 2022, your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and proxy materials are being forwarded to you by the organization that holds your account. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to virtually attend the Annual Meeting.

What am I voting on?

There are two matters scheduled for a vote:

•

Election of two Class I directors; and

•

Ratification of the selection by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board” or the “Board of Directors”) of Kesselman & Kesselman, a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited (“PwC”), as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

What if another matter is properly brought before the Annual Meeting?

The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy will vote the shares for which you grant your proxy on those matters in accordance with their best judgment.

What is the Board’s voting recommendation?

The Board recommends that you vote your shares:

•

“For” the election of each of the nominees for director; and

•

“For” the ratification of the selection by the Board of PwC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

| 2022 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

How do I vote?

Regarding the election of directors, you may either vote “For” the nominees to the Board or you may “Withhold” your vote for any nominee you specify. For any other matters to be voted on, you may vote “For” or “Against” or abstain from voting.

The procedures for voting depend on whether your shares are registered in your name or are held by a bank, broker or other nominee:

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote at the Annual Meeting, vote by proxy over the telephone, vote by proxy through the internet, or vote by proxy using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the Annual Meeting and vote even if you have already voted by proxy. Voting at the Annual Meeting will have the effect of revoking your previously submitted proxy (see “Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?” below).

	Before the Annual Meeting
	By Internet			If you received the notice or a printed copy of the proxy materials, go to www.proxyvote.com and follow the instructions in the notice or on the proxy card.
	By Telephone			If you received a printed copy of the proxy materials, follow the instructions on the proxy card.
	By Mail			If you received a printed copy of the proxy materials, complete, sign, date, and mail your proxy card in the enclosed, postage-prepaid envelope.

To attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares, you must register for the Annual Meeting and provide the control number located on your notice or proxy card.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker, Bank or Other Nominee

If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank, or other nominee, you should have received proxy materials containing voting instructions from that organization rather than from Payoneer. Simply follow the voting instructions in the proxy materials to ensure that your vote is counted. Follow the instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee included with these proxy materials, or contact your broker, bank or other nominee to request a proxy form.

How many votes do I have?

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of Payoneer Global Inc. common stock you own as of April 20, 2022, the Record Date.

Are there any limitations on number of shares held?

Pursuant to our Certificate of Incorporation, our Board of Directors may act to prevent the transfer of capital stock, or the exercise of rights with respect to our capital stock, if the effect of such transfer or exercise of rights would result in a stockholder holding more than 9.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of our capital stock on a fully diluted basis.

Our charter provides that, subject to certain exceptions, we may request that holders or proposed transferees of our capital stock provide such information (including, without limitation, information with respect to citizenship, other holdings of our capital stock and affiliations) as we may reasonably request to determine whether the ownership of, or the exercise of any rights with respect to, our capital stock by such stockholder could result in such stockholder

| 2022 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

beneficially owning more than 9.9% of our issued and outstanding capital stock on a fully diluted basis (a “Violation”). This provision is designed to ensure we comply with the various licensing regimes of the several jurisdictions in which we operate, as the acquisition of more than 10% of our issued and outstanding capital stock in such jurisdictions could require regulatory notifications and/or approvals.

In the event a holder or proposed transferee fails to respond to our request for information or if, upon review of information provided by such holder or proposed transferee, the Board of Directors determines that such person’s holdings or acquisition of our capital stock would result in a Violation, we may refuse to permit any such transfer of capital stock, refuse to honor any transfer of capital stock purported to have been effected (in which case, such transfer shall be deemed to have been void ab initio), suspend rights of stock ownership the exercise of which could result in a Violation, or redeem such shares of capital stock. Pursuant to our charter, any shares of capital stock subject to redemption shall be redeemed at a price equal to $0.01 per share, on such other terms and conditions as our Board of Directors may determine. Our charter provides that our Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, exempt (proactively or retroactively) any person from the foregoing restrictions.

What if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote but do not make specific choices?

If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, “For” the election of each of the nominees for Class I directors and “For” the ratification of PwC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, your proxy holder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her best judgment.

Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before June 13, 2022, 11.59 p.m. (Eastern Time). If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways:

•

You may submit another properly completed proxy card with a later date.

•

You may grant a subsequent proxy by telephone or through the internet.

•

You may send a timely written notice delivered before June 13, 2022, 11.59 p.m. (Eastern Time) that you are revoking your proxy to Payoneer’s Corporate Secretary, c/o Payoneer Global Inc., 150 W 30th St, New York, New York 10001; provided, however, in light of disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, if you intend to revoke your proxy by providing such written notice, we advise that you also send a copy via email to payoneerlegal@payoneer.com.

•

You may attend and vote at the Annual Meeting. Simply attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

Your most current proxy card or telephone or internet proxy is the one that is counted, so long as it is provided within the applicable deadline. If your shares are held by your broker, banker or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee to change your vote or revoke your proxy.

What are “broker non-votes”?

Broker non-votes occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” does not give instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares as to how to vote. Generally, if shares are held in street name, the beneficial owner of the shares is entitled to give voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker, bank or other nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine,” but cannot vote the shares with respect to “non-routine” matters. Under the rules and interpretations of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), which generally apply to all brokers, banks or other nominees, on voting matters characterized by the NYSE as “routine,” member firms have the discretionary authority to vote shares for which their customers do not provide voting

| 2022 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

instructions. On non-routine proposals, such “uninstructed shares” may not be voted by member firms. Only the proposal to ratify the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm is considered a “routine” matter for this purpose and brokers, banks or other nominees generally have discretionary voting power with respect to such proposal. Broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting.

What is the effect of votes to withhold, abstentions and broker non-votes?

Votes to Withhold: For Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors, you may vote “For” all of the nominees or you may “Withhold” your vote with respect to one or more of the nominees. The two nominees who receive the most votes cast by the holders of shares either present at the Annual Meeting or represented by proxy will be elected to our Board. Broker non-votes will have no effect on Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors. In an uncontested election, “Withhold” votes have no effect and will not prevent a candidate from getting elected.

Abstentions: Our Bylaws provide that in all matters up for a vote at the Annual Meeting, other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast at the meeting on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Under Delaware law (under which Payoneer is incorporated), abstentions are counted as shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, but they are not counted as shares cast. Therefore, abstentions will have no effect on Proposal No. 2: Ratification of the Selection of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for Payoneer.

Broker Non-Votes: The only “non-routine” matter on the agenda for the Annual Meeting is Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors. Broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. However, because broker non-votes are not considered under Delaware law to be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, they will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors. As a result, if you hold your shares in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares in the election of directors, no votes will be cast on your behalf on these proposals. Therefore, it is critical that you indicate your vote on this proposal if you want your vote to be counted. The proposal to ratify the selection by the Board of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 should be considered a “routine” matter. Therefore, your broker, bank or other nominee will be able to vote on Proposal No. 2: Ratification of the Selection by the Board of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for Payoneer even if it does not receive instructions from you, so long as it holds your shares in its name.

How many votes are needed to approve each proposal?

Proposal	Vote Required	Discretionary Voting Allowed?
No. 1. Election of Directors	Plurality	No
No. 2. Ratification of the Selection by the Board of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for Payoneer	Majority Cast	Yes

A “Plurality,” with regard to the election of directors, means that the two nominees who receive the most “For” votes cast by the holders of shares either present at the Annual Meeting or represented by proxy will be elected to our Board. A “Majority Cast,” with regard to the ratification of the selection by the Board of our independent registered public accounting firm means that a majority of the votes cast on the proposal are voted “For” the proposal.

What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid stockholder meeting. A quorum will be present if stockholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote are present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 343,739,876 shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, the

| 2022 Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

holders of at least 171,869,939 shares must be present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting to have a quorum. Virtual attendance at our Annual Meeting constitutes “presence” for purposes of a quorum at the meeting.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy by mail, over the phone or through the internet (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, votes to “Withhold” and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, then either the Chair of the Annual Meeting or the holders of a majority of shares present at the Annual Meeting or represented by proxy may adjourn the meeting to another date. At any adjourned Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the Annual Meeting as originally notified.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

Final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we expect to file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting.

April 28, 2022

A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 3, 2022, is available without charge upon written request to Investor Relations, Payoneer Global Inc., 150 W 30th St, New York, New York 10001 or by accessing a copy on Payoneer’s website at https://investor.payoneer.com/financials/sec-filings/default.aspx.

ANNEX A

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Proxy Statement includes and oral statements made from time to time by representatives of Payoneer may be considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or Payoneer’s future financial or operating performance. For example, projections of future volume, revenue, transaction cost and adjusted EBITDA are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Payoneer and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) the risk that the business combination with FTAC Olympus Acquisition Corp. completed on June 25, 2021 (the “Reorganization”) disrupts current plans and operations of Payoneer; (2) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Reorganization, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of Payoneer to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management and key employees; (3) costs related to the Reorganization; (4) the outcome of any legal proceedings; (5) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (6) the possibility that Payoneer may be adversely affected by geopolitical and other economic, business and/or competitive factors; (7) Payoneer’s estimates of its financial performance; and (8) other risks and uncertainties set forth in Payoneer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2021. Nothing in this Proxy Statement should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Payoneer does not undertake any duty to update these forward-looking statements.
