Part 2: Still using Upwork for payments? There has to be a better way.

I have been using remote workers for years. And increasing…

Last October, I started feeling frustrated juggling 30 or so freelancers. Checking invoices, hours, platforms and last but not least, making sure they’ve done the work as I hoped for.

The task of managing their contracts became strenuous and time consuming. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t help but upset relationships.

In desperation, I moved them all to Upwork. Peace of mind, automatic payment, time tracking. But suddenly all my contracts had gone up by 20%.

Started thinking about alternatives.

Real and affordable automation. All my freelancers in one single platform. New innovative technologies.

Thinking how to best solve this problem for myself. Solving this for others. Bringing value to the world.

Then PayNinja was born.

Time for feedback and validation with plenty of people benefiting from less fees, innovative technologies and a new breed in the world of freelancer payments platforms.
