    CEO @ Airtm | Marketplaces' one-stop shop to grow, pay, and retain global supply

    When your international workers can cash out their earnings in minutes, it’s good for business. When your workers can access their earnings instantly, they stay. When they can keep more of what they earn, they produce more. Imagine: A freelancer in Venezuela completes work on your platform — and can cash out in minutes. Your marketplace needs to pay data labelers in Argentina — and the money arrives instantly at local rates. That's not just good for them — it's good for your bottom line, for retention, and for quality control. Usually, when you send money to the Global South, the money travels through a web of correspondent banks, currency traders, and local intermediaries. Each one: → Adds their markup → Creates delays → Increases friction. For digital entrepreneurs, this means: 7+ days to access their earnings. Double-digit fees to cash out. Frozen capital they can't use. The traditional solution is stacking more intermediaries between point A and point B. We took a different path. Instead of patching old infrastructure, we leveraged stablecoins to create a system where money moves at internet speed. No correspondent banks. No currency conversion markups. No unnecessary delays. Next, our network of thousands of local liquidity providers competes to offer digital entrepreneurs the best rates and fastest service. This creates: Near-instant access to local currency Lowest possible conversion costs Coverage in markets others can't reach. Happy Friday.

    Digital entrepreneurs aren’t just a supply to tap into—they’re the heartbeat of the internet economy. When platforms treat them like interchangeable parts, they risk more than just churn. They risk their own growth. We know digital entrepreneurs better than anyone, and we put them first—because their success is our success. #BorderlessPayments #DigitalEconomy #FinancialFreedom

    CEO @ Airtm | Marketplaces' one-stop shop to grow, pay, and retain global supply

    Have you ever thought about who's training AI models to recognize cats? Or who's designing those logos for new microbreweries? Or who's managing those Airbnb properties you browse? They're digital entrepreneurs — the hidden engine of the global internet economy. The math teacher in the Philippines who became a data annotator during COVID. The therapist from Argentina who transformed into a digital marketer. The architect in Venezuela who found freedom in freelancing. The problem is: marketplaces treat them like an infinite, interchangeable supply. "If one leaves, we'll find another." "If they don't like the payment terms, someone else will." "If they can't cash out quickly, that's their problem." This mindset is costing platforms more than they realize: → High supply-side churn → Inconsistent quality → Rising acquisition costs → Limited market penetration. Supply-constrained platforms like Airbnb and YouTube understand this. They know their success depends on giving suppliers a great experience. However, platforms that believe they have unlimited supply are missing the bigger picture. When you make your digital entrepreneurs wait 7 days to access their earnings or lose 10% to cash out, you're not just hurting them — you're undermining your own growth. Because in the digital economy, your supply chain isn't just a list of workers. It's a community of professionals investing in their futures. And how you pay them matters. Think about it.
