The problem

You're a top-tier freelancer. Your payment setup isn't.

01 · The conversion tax

Whether it's Payoneer, Wise or your bank - every route takes a cut.

Payoneer (2–3.5%) for your Upwork, Toptal and Fiverr payouts. Wise Business (~1.5–2%) for direct invoices. SWIFT (£15–25 flat) if you go through your bank. Every route between your UK invoice and your Indian account has a toll. Silently. Permanently. On every payment.

02 · The chasing problem

You do the work. Then you wait. Then you follow up awkwardly.

You send the invoice. Then you wait. Then you follow up. Then you wait again. Chasing clients for payment is not what you got into freelancing for.

03 · The rate blindspot

GBP/INR moves daily. You only notice when it's too late.

The rate moves all day, every day. But you only check when you're about to transfer. By then, the good rate is gone. You settle.

The fix

Payd is the payment layer that Skydo and Xflow forgot to build.

You already have a UK virtual account with Skydo or Xflow. Payd sits on top - adding everything they don't: smart invoicing, direct Open Banking payments, FX alerts, and automated reminders.

01

Create your invoice in 60 seconds

Add your client, your amount, your payment terms. Payd generates a clean, professional invoice with a direct payment link.

02

Your client pays with one click

No SWIFT. No IBAN confusion. No FX fees. Your UK client authorises payment directly from their UK bank - the way they pay any UK business.

03

You get paid. Payd handles the rest.

Instant payment confirmation. Automatic reminders if they're late. FX alerts when GBP/INR hits your target rate. Everything in one dashboard.

See it in your hands

Your invoices, payments, and FX in one place.

A calm dashboard that does the chasing for you. Built for the way you actually work - not for a finance team you don't have.

Payd overview dashboard showing total receivables, this month's payments, and overdue invoices
01 · At a glance Every UK client. Every status. One screen.

Total receivables, this month's payments in, what's overdue. No spreadsheet, no guesswork.

02 · The ledger Every payment, traceable to the invoice.

Filter by client, account, or status. Export to CSV the moment your accountant asks.

03 · Business expenses Issue cards. Track spend. Stay clean.

Separate cards per category. Per-card limits. The receipts come to you, not your inbox.

What you get

Everything a professional freelancer needs to get paid like a UK business.

Zero conversion markup on receipts

UK clients pay via Open Banking - a direct bank-to-bank transfer that costs pennies, not percentages. Your invoice amount lands in your account in full.

Smart invoicing built for UK clients

Create professional invoices in under a minute. Send via email with a single payment link. Your clients see a UK-native payment flow - no wires, no IBAN, no friction.

Automated payment reminders

Payd chases your clients so you don't have to. Structured reminders go out at the right intervals - firm enough to work, professional enough that the relationship stays intact.

GBP/INR rate alerts

Set the rate you want. Payd watches the market around the clock and notifies you the moment GBP/INR hits your target - via email or Telegram.

One dashboard for every UK client

All your invoices, all your clients, all your payment status - in one clean view. Outstanding, settled, overdue. No spreadsheet. No guesswork.

Telegram notifications

Get payment confirmations and FX alerts directly in Telegram. No app to install. Works the way Indian freelancers actually communicate.

Who it's for

Built for one type of person.

You're a skilled Indian professional - a developer, designer, consultant, or agency - doing serious work for UK clients. You invoice in GBP. You receive via Skydo or Xflow. You're tired of watching Wise take a cut of every project you win.

You'll love Payd if

  • You have at least one recurring UK client
  • Your monthly GBP receipts are £2,000+ (Payd pays for itself many times over)
  • You use Skydo or Xflow for your UK virtual account
  • You'd rather spend time on work than on chasing invoices

Payd is not for you if

  • You receive payments in EUR or USD (GBP only right now)
  • You want a mobile app (web-only in V1)
  • You need team or agency-level accounts (coming soon)
Built on real rails

The same infrastructure UK businesses use to pay each other.

Open Banking powered

Payd uses UK Open Banking infrastructure - the same regulated payment network used by UK fintechs and banks. Your client's bank authorisation is protected by the same standards as any UK domestic payment.

Payd never touches your money

We're not a payment processor. We're not an e-money institution. Payd never holds your funds. Payments go directly from your client's UK bank to your GBP virtual account - whether that's Skydo, Xflow, or any other UK account you hold. Period.

Your data, respected

No selling. No sharing. We collect what we need to run the product. That's it. Always has been, always will be.

Questions

Things people actually ask.

No. Your client receives a payment link by email. They click it, authorise the payment from their UK bank, and it's done. They never create an account with Payd.
You need a UK virtual account. Skydo and Xflow are the two we recommend most - both are free for Indian freelancers, RBI-compliant, and take a few days to set up. If you're currently using Wise personal (which stopped accepting inbound GBP payments from April 2026), now is the right time to switch. We'll point you in the right direction during onboarding.
Over 90% of UK personal and business bank accounts support Open Banking payments. In the rare case your client is with a bank that doesn't, we'll flag it and guide you to an alternative.
Giving your client your IBAN means they have to set up an international bank transfer manually - which takes time, involves fees, and often goes wrong. Payd gives them a one-click UK bank payment flow. It feels domestic to them. And you get the invoicing, reminders, and FX tracking layer on top.
Your Payd subscription is billed in GBP via Stripe. £9/month or £89/year.
Yes. No questions, no friction, no penalty.
You get full access for 14 days with no card required. At the end of the trial, we'll ask you to subscribe if you want to keep creating new invoices. Any payments already sent by clients will still be received regardless.
