Freelancer and Job Platform InvoicesPayments to your wallet.
Collect freelancer deposits, project balances, marketplace fees, and client invoices with payment records tied to each job.
Let freelancers and marketplace sellers collect client invoices without losing context in chat.
Freelance work depends on trust between client, contractor, and sometimes a platform. MakePay lets a freelancer or marketplace send a payment request for a job, deposit, milestone, or service fee, with paid status before work starts, files are released, or visibility changes.
Freelancer payments often happen around deposits, milestones, revisions, and final delivery. The payment should be tied to the job, not buried in a message thread.
Crypto can fit global clients, Web3 work, remote teams, and marketplaces where sellers want stablecoin settlement.
MakePay provides branded invoice links for deposits, milestones, retainers, and final balances.

01 / Practical guide
Why freelance payments need project references
A payment can unlock work time, revisions, files, or final delivery. A clear request protects both freelancer and client.
For marketplace-style sellers, payment references reduce disputes about what was paid and what should happen next.
Milestones need status
Move to the next task after payment is clear.
Deliverables need protection
Final files can wait for final balance.
Global clients fit
Stablecoin invoices can be easier than bank transfers.
