Welcome to the first of a three part series called “Global Freelancing”. This series is dedicated to unfolding the many facets of Sorbet to empower freelancers to have a global reach and collaborate with clients more seamlessly. Our goal is to put designers and all creative freelancers in control of their business and enhance their business globally.
Through these articles, we aim to provide a deeper understanding of the unique benefits Sorbet offers and share insights into why our team is fully committed to bringing this vision to life.
Our first piece focuses on the main value Sorbet is bringing to creatives: simplifying global payments with transactions that are cheap, instant and secured. Breaking down the barriers that slow collaboration with clients across different regions.
The Challenge of Global Payments for Designers
Today’s global economy demands seamless international collaboration, yet creatives often find themselves battling against outdated and inefficient payment systems. These systems are not only costly but also slow, with freelancers sometimes waiting weeks to receive their hard-earned money.
This delay is compounded by high transaction fees, typically due to the multiple intermediaries involved in traditional banking processes. Additionally, despite advancements in digital payment technologies, there remains a persistent lack of trust among parties in different countries.
For instance, a creative in the MENA region working with a client in the U.S. must navigate a complex array of banking services and payment platforms, each with its own set of challenges and limitations.
The Future of Freelance Payments and the Role of Stablecoins
As explored in our previous article, The Future of Freelance Payments with Circle's Digital Dollar, the advent of digital currencies like stablecoins is revolutionizing how money moves globally.
Stablecoins combine the reliability of traditional currencies with the efficiency of digital technology. They are pegged to stable assets such as the U.S. dollar, ensuring security and stability while enabling instant, nearly free transactions across borders. YCombinator recently shared that stablecoins was one of the most promising technology they are looking at.
By adopting this technology, Sorbet not only enhances the speed and reduces the costs of cross-border payments but also fosters a more inclusive and transparent financial ecosystem. This makes financial operations as easy and reliable as sending a text message, bringing significant benefits to freelancers and their clients alike.
New Payment Era for Freelancers Global through Sorbet
Our tool simplifies the payment process, allowing creatives to receive payments directly from their clients without the intervention of traditional financial intermediaries. This system is not just about transferring money; it’s about creating a robust ecosystem where freelancers can manage all aspects of their business.
On one side your client can continue to pay in bank transfer, credit cards or any other widely used method and on the other side, you can enjoy receiving your funds instantly in your bank accounts. By having Sorbet in the middle, we make sure that those funds are sent safely and in the most efficient way, taking care of the hard work and letting you have peace of mind that you will get paid in record time.
