What are yall's go to way of getting paid by clients. I'm currently operating with Paypal but they recently started holding money and it has been getting quite annoying?



What's the problem of just accepting SWIFT/SEPA/ACH payments to a bank account depending on where you are?


I guess I could just use zelle with clients, you're right


I live in Europe. We just use standard bank transfers.


I like stripe and send invoices from the dashboard. Its nice because the payouts are fast and the invoices allow for bank transfers


I use Zoho Books for invoicing, payments and bookeeping. I have payment gateways that allow for payment via PayPal and Stripe.

(I actually use a Zoho One license that provisions a license to every product they offer. For a solo freelancer it works out well, covering virtually every base for a small business like mine.)


This is interesting, thanks


What about plain old checks?


Deel has been handling it fine. Bank transfers work well enough for me.


I use Wise; it's been great.


Send an invoice as a PDF by email.


Usually in brown paper envelope.

I ask for big notes to the envelope does not gets too bulky.


Wise is amazing.
