Sawalaat ## Frequently asked questions Aam sawalaat jo Indian freelancers poochte hain - Choose your payout method when you set up your account: **Wise** (best mid-market rate to INR), **USDT/USDC crypto**, or **PayPal** (connect your own Business account). Bank wire to any Indian bank also available for larger payouts. Direct payments settle **instantly at checkout**. Platform-collected payouts process every **Friday**. No minimum payout threshold for instant methods. - Yes. Wise is officially supported in India and often offers **strong rates** for direct INR deposits because of its near-mid-market pricing. Settlement to your Indian bank typically takes 1–2 working days. For freelancers receiving regular USD payments who want maximum INR retention, Wise is often the smartest pick. - Yes — via two routes: **Indirect (Wise):** Earnings hit your Wise balance, then withdraw to your Indian bank in INR. Fastest and cheapest for most freelancers. **Direct (international wire):** Zinn Hub can wire USD straight to your Indian bank account. Standard SWIFT fees apply on both sides — best for larger payouts. - Zinn Hub does not withhold any Indian taxes — you receive your full earnings (less platform commission and processor fees). Tax compliance is your responsibility. In India, freelancers crossing the GST registration threshold (currently **₹20 lakh per year** for services in most states, ₹10 lakh in some special-category states) are required to register for GST. Export of services may qualify for zero-rated GST treatment via LUT, but the rules are technical — consult a Chartered Accountant for your situation. Many Indian freelancers also use the **Section 44ADA presumptive scheme** for income tax (50% of receipts as presumed profits) up to ₹50 lakh annual receipts. - **Yes.** Choose USDT or USDC as your payout method and we'll send earnings to any wallet you specify (Binance, CoinDCX, WazirX, Trust Wallet, MetaMask, your own custody wallet). Settles in minutes. Convert to INR via your Indian exchange when rates suit you. Note that India taxes crypto gains at 30% plus 1% TDS on transactions, so factor that into your decision. Crypto transactions are legal to receive but should be reported on your ITR. Consult a CA for specifics. - **Bilkul free.** Free signup, free profile, free first listing. Zinn Hub takes commission only when you make a sale, and your first $500 in earnings is 0% commission. After that, the rate tiers down to as low as 8% based on sales volume. Optional **Pro Zinner** ($25/mo) and **Agency Zinner** ($50/mo) memberships unlock flat lower commission rates from day one, but they're entirely optional. - Yes — and the time difference often *helps*. IST is +5:30 from UTC, which means UK clients overlap with you for most of their working day, and US East Coast clients overlap during your evenings. Many US clients specifically appreciate working with Indian freelancers because they hand over work at end-of-day and wake up to completed deliverables. Built-in messaging works asynchronously across time zones. For real-time meetings, schedule voice/video calls during overlap windows. Most successful Indian Zinners overlap 2–4 hours daily with their main client time zone. - The strongest categories for Indian freelancers on Zinn Hub right now are **web and app development (especially WordPress, React, and Shopify), content writing, SEO, graphic design, virtual assistance, and video editing**. Indian developers and writers are particularly well-regarded globally for technical depth and English fluency. Don't see your skill listed? Zinn Hub covers every digital service category. If there's a buyer for it, you can sell it. - **vs Fiverr:** Zinn Hub charges 0% on first $500 then 8–15% (vs Fiverr's flat 20%), allows unrestricted client communication, gives you a branded storefront, and supports crypto + Wise. No bot-flagged messages. **vs Upwork:** No Connects to buy, no bidding wars, no race-to-the-bottom hourly proposals. You list services, buyers find you, you also send Custom Offers proactively. Plus subscriptions, hourly, and video consultation services Upwork doesn't support. - Three ways: **(1) Buyers find your Zinns** via marketplace search and category browsing. **(2) You send Custom Offers** directly to buyers — even before creating a listing. **(3) Share your storefront URL** on LinkedIn, X, your portfolio site, email signature — you keep 100% credit when someone buys via your link (and 0% commission on the first $500). No Connects, no bidding, no gated messaging. Quality wins. - Two main routes: **1.
