in First-time course creation

Hello, valuable people of Udemy community. I have plans to publish my first course on this platform soon and I wanted to know if it is possible to do this without linking a PayPal or Payoneer account? Like, will my potential earnings accumulate there without it? I mean, I intend to but a bit later. I just want to it to be available there to learners while I can comfortably figure the payment method.
You might say, why don't you upload the content and test it yourself? Well the thing is it is not 100% complete and nowadays I can either try to complete & upload it OR
work on payment issues and to be honest I want to go with the former one as soon as possible.

    Hi @Nubarak Welcome to the community! 🎉😊

    You can create and publish the course, however, if you want to charge students for it, you must become a premium instructor. To do so, it is required to add a payment method to your account. If you don’t add a payment method, you won’t be able to set a price for your course.

    Best regards,
