Work without borders

An account for freelancers who get paid in digital dollars

conta.vc can serve Brazilian freelancers when the client can pay from a wallet using a supported currency and network. The payment comes in as digital dollars, is converted into a balance in reais, and can be used through Pix after identity verification.

The path

From getting started to using it, without skipping a step.

  1. 01

    Agree on the payment method

    Check whether the client can send the currency and network that appear in your app. An international bank account and a wallet aren’t the same thing.

  2. 02

    Share the address

    Copy the receiving instructions straight from conta.vc and send them to the client along with the currency and network.

  3. 03

    Receive in reais

    The digital dollars you receive are converted into your balance in reais. Check in the app how much arrived.

  4. 04

    Use or send

    With Pix unlocked, use the balance for expenses in Brazil. You can also use the available flows to send digital dollars.

The best fit: clients who already pay via wallet

Tech companies, protocols, international communities, and clients who work with digital assets can often pay from a wallet. In that scenario, conta.vc shortens the path between receiving the money and using it in Brazil.

The client needs clear instructions on currency, network, and address. If their finance team only pays by wire, ACH, or a payroll platform, conta.vc on its own doesn’t receive that bank transfer.

From invoice to everyday life in reais

Once the payment arrives and is converted, the professional sees a balance in reais instead of permanently managing a portfolio of assets. That makes it easier to separate the decision to get paid globally from how rent, suppliers, and expenses are paid in Brazil.

The financial conversion doesn’t replace documenting the service. Contracts, invoices, the nota fiscal (Brazil’s tax invoice), income tax returns, and taxation still depend on the type of work and the professional’s situation.

What to check before accepting the payment

Agree on who covers the source network’s fee and what amount should arrive. Make it clear that the address only accepts the route shown. With a new client, test the process with a smaller payment before putting a significant invoice through it.

  • The payment’s exact currency and network.
  • Who covers the source wallet’s fee.
  • The invoice’s gross amount and the expected net amount.
  • The tax or accounting document needed to record the income.

What conta.vc doesn’t promise

The product doesn’t promise a fixed future exchange rate, doesn’t work as a US bank account, doesn’t hold a dollar bank deposit, and doesn’t provide tax advice. What it offers is more specific: receiving a compatible digital dollar and making it usable as a balance in reais.

Drawing this line matters when choosing the right tool. A freelancer who needs a routing number should look for an international account; someone who already gets paid via wallet can skip an unnecessary step.

Makes sense for

When Conta is a good fit

  • Freelancers paid in digital dollars by international clients.
  • Professionals who spend most of their income through Pix in Brazil.
  • People who want less switching between a wallet, an exchange, and a bank.
  • People willing to take proper care of addresses, networks, and passkeys.

Product limits

When to look for another solution

  • Clients who only pay by ACH, wire, card, or international payroll.
  • People who need to keep a dollar-denominated bank account.
  • Replacing an accountant, tax invoicing, or income reporting.
  • Receiving assets that don’t show up as available in the app.

Straight answers

Frequently asked questions

For other questions, see the full help center.

Does my client need a conta.vc account?

Not necessarily. They need to be able to send the digital dollars using the currency and network indicated for the receiving address.

Will I get a US bank account?

No. conta.vc receives via wallet; it doesn’t provide a routing number, ACH, or a dollar bank deposit.

Can I use the payment for Pix?

Yes. Once the amount becomes a balance in reais and your identity is verified, it can fund Pix transactions.

Does conta.vc handle the freelancer’s taxes?

No. The product moves the money. Tax obligations and service documents remain the professional’s responsibility.
