Project work shouldn't mean payment uncertainty. wlbr holds your client's payment in escrow so you can start with confidence and get paid the moment the work is signed off.
Your client funds the project into escrow up front, so you can see the money is real and get to work without wondering if you'll be paid.
Break bigger projects into stages and release payment as each milestone is approved - steady cash flow, capped exposure.
Bank-to-bank open banking payments settle in NZD with lower fees than cards, and no foreign-currency surprises.
Send a clean, protected payment link that reassures clients their money is safe - a mark of a serious operator.

If something goes wrong: either side can raise a dispute. The funds freeze in the trust account - neither side can touch them - while both add evidence. Resolution releases, refunds, or splits the money. Unresolved disputes can escalate to FSCL, an approved independent scheme.
Instant, AI-powered NZD price ranges based on real jobs.
No monthly fees, no lock-in. A flat 1.9% + GST per payment, shown clearly before anyone pays.
