Solutions / Freelancers
Get Paid Globally, Instantly
Stop losing money to high fees. Upesa provides freelancers a virtual USD/EUR account for instant international payments.
THE CHALLENGE
Freelancers deserve better than this
International platforms pay out in USD or EUR — but getting that money into your hands costs time and a chunk of your earnings.
Slow Settlement Times
Traditional wire transfers take 3–7 business days. Meanwhile, your bills don't wait.
High Transaction Fees
Banks and payment processors charge 3–8% on international transfers. On $5,000, that's up to $400 lost.
No Dedicated Receiving Account
Without a USD or EUR account, many freelancers can't receive payments directly from global platforms at all.
