In a historic milestone for Pakistani freelancers, SadaPay, a local Fintech company, announced that their SadaBiz freelancers will now be able to receive payments via Apple Pay.
The news was released during SadaPay’s inaugural SadaSummit, which took place at COLABS on Friday. Veterans of the IT sector, influential figures in the freelance community, and early SadaBiz users were present at the occasion. In order to promote Pakistan’s future as a center for international freelancing, the schedule also featured panel talks and fireside chats.
Freelancers in Pakistan face multifarious challenges despite the burgeoning tech talent. More specifically, freelancers do not have awareness about opportunities, lack training facilities, and access to the international market and getting paid from their overseas clients. Apple Pay makes it significantly easier for freelancers to access the international clients.
Apple Pay’s user base, at 550 million, has surpassed PayPal’s 450 million. The number of payments via Apple Pay is four times greater than those via PayPal, and it is growing exponentially.
The reach of Apple Pay is massive, with over two billion iPhones equipped with the technology worldwide. With SadaPay, Pakistan’s freelancers and markets can now receive payments more conveniently and easily through a popular and trusted payment rail.
The company also declared that SadaBiz will take Google Pay payments, which are becoming more and more well-liked worldwide. SadaPay has addressed a long-felt need by filling the void left by foreign payment providers that have long disregarded the Pakistani market. Pakistani independent contractors can utilize Google Pay or Apple Pay on over 700 million devices globally with SadaPay.
