While the world of freelancing has gone global, allowing creative professionals to connect with clients worldwide, the traditional methods of payment have not kept pace. High fees and slow transaction times often create financial bottlenecks that can stifle a freelancer’s ability to manage and grow their business effectively.
Sorbet’s mission is to create bridges to convert leads coming from your social media and personal network to new client projects. We want to facilitate direct connections with clients. On the payment side we are leveraging Circle’s innovative USDC technology. Sorbet allows you to send and receive money globally at minimal cost, with the speed of sending an email.
When you send or receive funds through Sorbet, they are converted into USDC within your account, ensuring that all transactions between Sorbet users are conducted using this stable digital currency. When you choose to withdraw money from Sorbet to your bank account, it's automatically converted into your preferred currency, facilitating ease and flexibility in managing your earnings.
This article explores how Sorbet's integrates Circle to transform cross-border payments, focusing on the security, user-friendliness, and broad benefits Circle offers to the Sorbet creative community.
What is Circle?
Circle is a fintech company that launched USDC in 2018, a stablecoin designed to harness the global trust and extensive reach of the US dollar along with the technological advantages of the open internet. As the dollar plays a crucial role in global finance, USDC capitalizes on this by enabling nearly anyone, anywhere, to access, hold, and transact with digital dollars over the internet.
USDC is currently accessible in more than 190 countries and is used by nearly 3 million on-chain wallet holders. At the heart of Circle's vision is the transformation of financial services, making activities like sending, spending, and saving money as seamless and reliable as digital communication.
