Payment problems — Overseas clients

Get paid by overseas clients without losing it to wire fees.

You did the work and sent the invoice. Then the payment arrived smaller than you billed, with no line saying where the rest went. Here is where it usually goes, and a way to send your overseas client one link for the exact amount instead.

Before you read on: we publish every business type we take and every one we refuse — 28 we take, 11 we refuse.

Where the money goes

A wire can lose money in three places before it reaches you.

More than one bank takes a fee on the way

A wire to another country often passes through one or more banks between yours and your client's. Each can take its own charge out of the amount before it reaches you, and neither of you sees that charge until the money lands.

The exchange rate costs you twice

If your client's bank converts the money, or yours does on arrival, the rate used is rarely the one you see quoted. The difference is a cost that never shows up as a fee on either statement.

The invoice is paid, but short

You invoiced one figure and a smaller one arrived. Now you either chase your client for the difference, which is awkward after a good job, or you quietly absorb it on every overseas client you have.

What's different here

One link for the exact amount, straight to a wallet you control.

The link asks your client for the amount on your invoice. There is no chain of banks in the middle, each taking its own charge. What comes off is our fee, the one agreed with you in writing, and it is the same whichever country your client is in. Network fees are separate: your client pays them on top of the amount and sees their total before they pay.

Two limits worth knowing, in the same breath. If your own account with us is under review, automatic payouts pause until that is resolved. And if your client pays by card, the payment can be declined, or they can be asked to prove who they are, before the money is sent. That is a payment that doesn't happen, never money taken back from you afterwards.

How it works

One invoice, one link.

1

Send one link for the invoice

Set the exact amount on the invoice and put the invoice number in the description. Paste the link into the invoice email, or send it on its own.

2

Your client pays

From their own crypto wallet, or by card where available. For a card payment, buyer eligibility depends on country, payment method, provider, and compliance checks.

3

The money reaches your wallet

Settlement reaches your wallet after the required network confirmations, in the currency the link was set in. What you invoiced is what the link asks for.

Common questions

What people ask before invoicing abroad this way.

What does it cost me?

A percentage of each payment, agreed with you in writing before you go live: crypto payments start at 0.75%, and card payments, if your business can take them, have a separate, higher price. No monthly platform fee and no setup fee. Network fees, and any extra charge for how your customer pays, are separate. Your customer pays them on top of your price and sees their total before they pay.

My client only pays by bank transfer. Is this any use to me?

Keep your bank details on the invoice for that client. This is a second way to get paid, not a replacement for your bank. It suits the clients who already hold a crypto wallet, or who would rather pay by card than set up an international wire.

Can I send one link for a large invoice?

Yes. A link is a single payment for one fixed amount, set by you. How much a client can pay in one go depends on how they pay: their own wallet, network and compliance limits apply, and a card payment has its own limits set by the provider.

I bill the same client every month. Can it charge them automatically?

No. Each invoice is its own link, and there is no automatic monthly charge. You send a new link with each invoice.

Will you take my business?

We publish every business type we take and every one we refuse, and every application is checked before it goes live. We don't promise a timeline we can't keep.

Legal & regulatory disclosures

Zoyn is software. It is not a bank, a payment processor, a payment gateway, a money transmitter or a money services business. Zoyn is never the seller in a sale (the "merchant of record"). Zoyn never holds a shop's money, and does not decide how long a payment company may hold it. When a customer pays by card or bank, the payment company handles that payment under its own terms and may hold it for a short time. The money then goes to the shop's own payment contract once the payment network has confirmed it.

Businesses can be based in 64 jurisdictions. A US state stays open when at least one checkout partner still serves buyers there. Customers can pay from 130+ countries through the checkout providers we connect to; which countries customers can pay from is set by those providers, not by Zoyn, and may change without notice. Not available in sanctioned jurisdictions: Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Syria, and the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions of Ukraine.
