For international work, agree on the invoice currency and the crypto asset and network the client can actually send. Coinvay can create a USD-priced invoice and verify a supported crypto payment directly to your wallet. It does not convert that receipt into your bank’s local currency.
Agree on more than a currency symbol
A client who says they can pay USDT may hold it on a network you have not enabled. Confirm the network before sending the invoice. A ticker alone does not specify the transfer route, and an identical-looking EVM address can exist on several different chains.
For a hypothetical design project, include the project milestone and your order reference in the invoice. Ask the client to follow the checkout’s current quoted quantity rather than calculating an amount from an earlier email. The payment quote and its expiration determine the amount Coinvay will verify.
Separate receipt from conversion
Receiving crypto in your wallet and obtaining money in a bank account are separate steps. If you need a local-currency bank receipt, choose an appropriate separate service and evaluate its terms before agreeing to the job. Do not describe Coinvay as supplying an automatic bank payout.
Document who covers the sending network fee and whether the client’s exchange deducts a withdrawal charge from the requested amount. A payment intended as an invoice total can arrive short if the sender subtracts fees. Test the client’s actual withdrawal route for an initial, appropriately approved transaction.
Keep a usable milestone record
Retain the invoice ID, order reference, accepted asset, network, quantity, transaction hash and verification time alongside your project acceptance record. The explorer demonstrates chain activity; your project record explains which deliverable the payment was for.
Plan a review process for delayed confirmation and payments sent after a quote expires. Marking a milestone complete because the client uploaded a screenshot bypasses verification. International reach also does not guarantee that every customer, merchant or service is eligible in every jurisdiction; assess the requirements relevant to the business.
Practical checklist
- Confirm the client’s asset and sending network.
- Agree on invoice currency and responsibility for fees.
- Keep project acceptance and payment evidence together.
- Arrange any required bank conversion separately.
Common questions
Can a USD invoice be paid with different supported assets?+
Checkout can offer the asset and network combinations enabled by the merchant and supported by Coinvay. The customer must use the resulting exact quote.
Does direct receipt mean immediate final confirmation?+
No. Your wallet receives the on-chain transfer, while Coinvay waits for the required verification and confirmations before marking the invoice Paid.
