An Easy Way to Pay
Your Freelancer
Your contractor creates an invoice through our US or EU entity. You pay it and receive all the documentation your accounting team needs.
Is This Right for You?
A good fit if
- You work with 1–3 freelancers or independent contractors
- Your company can’t pay directly to your freelancer’s country or bank
- You’re required to pay a company rather than an individual
- You need compliant invoicing and supporting documentation
Probably not the right fit if
- You manage 10 or more contractors
- You need payroll or HR management tools
- You want to handle contractor tasks and payments in‑house
- You need a full platform to manage contractors end to end
