SadaPay, the dynamic fintech firm that recently introduced the tailored SadaBiz business account for freelancers, is shaking things up once again. In a game-changing announcement, they've revealed that SadaBiz users can now receive payments via Apple Pay. This development opens new doors for the freelancing community in Pakistan, making it a pivotal moment for the local gig economy.
This groundbreaking revelation took center stage during SadaPay's first-ever SadaSummit, a gathering of industry experts, freelancing pioneers, and early adopters of SadaBiz. Held at COLABS last Friday, the event buzzed with optimism about Pakistan's potential as a global freelancing hub. Panel discussions and captivating talks filled the agenda, setting a positive tone for the future of freelancing in Pakistan.
Apple Pay's vast user base, which has now exceeded 550 million, surpasses PayPal's 450 million users. Even more astonishing is the fact that the payment volume processed through Apple Pay is four times greater than PayPal's, and it's continuously on the rise. With over 2 billion iPhones worldwide already equipped with Apple Pay, SadaPay recognized the immense potential of offering this trusted payment platform to Pakistani freelancers.
Going Beyond: Google Pay Integration:
SadaPay also shared exciting news that SadaBiz will soon embrace Google Pay. Google Pay is experiencing a surge in user adoption worldwide, mirroring the success of Apple Pay. SadaPay has bridged the gap left by international payment giants that have largely overlooked the Pakistani market. As a result, SadaPay has connected Pakistani freelancers with over 700 million devices globally, granting them access to both Apple Pay and Google Pay.
At the event, SadaPay unveiled "SadaSchool," an initiative designed to support Pakistan's talented youth. According to CEO Brandon Timinsky, SadaSchool provides a free platform offering masterclasses that guide individuals from novice to expert levels in freelancing. It also includes a Discord community built for peer support and mentorship. With a network of experts and thought leaders in various high-income skills, SadaSchool empowers Pakistan's digital generation to make a substantial impact on the global gig economy.
The integration of Apple Pay holds particular significance for Pakistan, a country that has long grappled with challenges in paying overseas freelancers due to the absence of PayPal. However, Apple Pay's arrival is set to revolutionize this landscape. Freelancers can now easily generate simple payment links through SadaBiz and send them to clients via WhatsApp or email. Clients, in turn, can effortlessly click the link, select Apple Pay as the payment method, and complete their payment within seconds.
CEO's Vision:
Brandon Timinsky, the CEO of SadaPay, emphasizes, "Our vision is clear: the future of work for Pakistani youth lies in freelancing. The integration of Apple Pay is a monumental stride in realizing this vision. This initiative not only unlocks employment prospects for our skilled youth but also plays a crucial role in remitting valuable foreign exchange into Pakistan."
