Payment links
Payment links for freelancers
Create a link in seconds, share it on WhatsApp or email, and get paid by card, transfer or USSD, in your own currency.
Free plan, no card needed. Or book a demo.
The fastest way to take a deposit
Most freelance jobs start in a chat. Sending bank details and waiting for a screenshot is slow, and it is easy to lose track of who paid.
With startbuddi you type a title and an amount, pick the currency and paste the link into the chat. The client pays on their phone and the payment lands in Money Manager, matched to what it was for.
