Hey everyone,

I’m about to receive my first payment from an international client and would appreciate some guidance on the best way to handle it.

I’m based in India, and the client is overseas. I don’t have prior experience with cross-border payments, so I want to ensure I choose a method that’s reliable, cost-effective, and compliant.

Note: It's not a recurring payment but a one-time consulting payment.

A few specific questions:

• Which platforms or methods have worked well for you?
• How do you typically manage currency conversion and fees?
• Any tips to avoid delays or compliance issues (especially in India)?

Would really value your recommendations and experiences. Thanks in advance!
