How to get paid as a freelancer

How to get paid as a freelancer?

It is the question that you’d ask yourself when you switch from a full-time job to a contractor or a freelancer.

Regular paychecks on a weekly or monthly basis are pretty comfy. But we all choose real freedom and being self-employed over predicted payments and unpredicted managers.

The most common and secure way to start freelancing is freelance marketplaces like Fiverr or Upwork — they handle almost everything for you and that helps newbies to start the journey.

But time pass and you see the fee they take can really be painful.

Other than that the major question is: “How do I get paid from the clients that came to me directly?”

Actually, you had two: bank transfer and PayPal which was the one and only trusted option to get paid online.

But the times are changing, and now there’s a multitude of options to get paid from your clients directly available to freelancers today.

Here’s what I’ve discovered doing my research
