Hey All,
Big announcement today…
If you're pulling money out of Upwork into a non-US bank account, I have a way to save you thousands of dollars in conversion fees.
Upwork has always had one major issue… if you're not based in the US, every payout gets hit with a currency conversion fee on the way into your bank account. This happens to every single withdrawal you make. And as you can imagine, it stacks up pretty quickly. You're essentially handing back your hard earned money for no reason.
I've been looking for a fix for this for a while, and I finally found one and couldn’t be more excited to partner up with them. Their name is Avior, here’s how they work:
Avior gives you local bank account details in USD, EUR, GBP, and more, so you can get paid like a local no matter where you actually live. Instead of routing your Upwork payout through a currency conversion, you're pulling it into an account that's already in the right currency. Behind the scenes it runs on stablecoins, which is what lets you move money globally in seconds without the usual bank fees and delays. And you're not locked into anyone's custody, your balance sits in a self-custodial wallet that you control.
On top of that, it has an AI CFO built in that handles your invoicing, basic accounting, and tax admin automatically, which is a huge bonus.
If you're already earning solid money on Upwork (which, if you're in this community, you probably are, or you’re working towards it), this is worth a few minutes of your time to sign up for.
Talk soon,
Nico
