Mykola F.

Poland

I started freelancing during the pandemic and immediately realized that I absolutely need an EU bank account that I could link to my freelance platform. This was essential for me in order to receive money from all my foreign clients. Quarantine and restrictions left me no choice but to open an account online and I'm really glad I chose Satchel. I like using the app to manage my transfers and the card to spend all the money I earn. By the way, the card was delivered really fast which was a nice surprise.

FAQ

Do I need to have an account to work as a freelancer?

A payment account with attractive fees and the possibility to issue a payment card for online and in-store purchases is an absolute necessity for a freelancer.

We live in a digital and cashless world, which makes it hard to be efficient without a reliable digital account to manage your incoming and outgoing transactions. This is particularly true for freelancers/private entrepreneurs who rarely limit their operations to a single geography and have to manage relationships (including financial transactions) with multiple international clients. For more information and useful tips on opening an account for a freelancer, please read our dedicated blog post.

What is the advantage of a freelance account over a personal account?

As a private entrepreneur or freelancer, managing your business effectively is paramount. It's crucial to establish a clear distinction between your personal and business finances from the very start, especially once your freelance work starts generating regular income and expenses. Here are the advantages of maintaining a separate freelancer account:

Simplified budgeting & accounting
Professional reputation
Legal protection
