We read each firm's own restricted-country list or terms. A firm only appears as accepted when its list does not name the country. Firms whose list we could not read are shown as not confirmed.

Before you pay

Residency and citizenship can both matter. Some firms restrict citizens of a country even if they live elsewhere.
The real check is at ID verification. A firm can take your payment and still refuse a payout if your documents are from a restricted country.
Lists change without notice. Open the firm's own list (linked below) before you buy.
Check how you get paid. Payout methods vary by country, even where a firm accepts you.
