You have used find_elements_by_name() this will return list. You should use 

find_element_by_name()

Now try this.

birthbutton = driver.find_element_by_name("ctl00$cphBodyContent$PersonalDetails1$datepicker5")
birthbutton.click()

I will suggests use webdriverwait.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver=webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("https://www.payoneer.com")
WebDriverWait(driver,10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH,"//div[@class='menu-user-menu-container']//ul//li/a[text()='Register']"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver,10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.NAME,"ctl00$cphBodyContent$PersonalDetails1$datepicker5"))).click()
