Pay contractors in the Philippines in stablecoins or fiat from a single dashboard with Hanko, instead of juggling wire fees, exchange steps, and manual receipts. Contractors can receive USDC on a low-fee network and off-ramp to a peso bank account, or take a straightforward bank payment if they prefer. Every payout is confirmed on-chain and comes with an email receipt.
Two ways to pay: stablecoins or fiat
Your contractor picks what works for them, and you send from the same place. Stablecoins settle quickly on-chain, while fiat covers anyone who'd rather deal only with their bank. Nobody is forced into a payment method they don't want.
- Stablecoins: USDC, USDT, or DAI on Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, or Solana
- Fiat: card, ACH, or SEPA bank wire where applicable
- Contractors can off-ramp crypto to a Philippine peso bank account
- No wallet needed for contractors who choose fiat
Getting paid in pesos
Receiving USDC doesn't mean a contractor has to keep it as crypto. From the same screen where funds arrive, they can off-ramp to a linked bank account, turning a stablecoin payout into local currency. That keeps things simple for contractors who bill in one currency but want to spend in another.
Run batch payroll in one transaction
If you're paying a whole team, you don't have to send funds one person at a time. Hanko bundles a batch of stablecoin payouts into a single transaction, which is more gas-efficient than sending each payment separately. Every recipient still gets their own confirmation.
- Mass payouts go out together in one on-chain transaction
- Lower gas overhead than individual transfers
- Each recipient receives an email receipt with an explorer link
- Clone a past run or template to repeat next cycle
On-chain proof for every payout
When you pay a contractor overseas, both sides want certainty that money actually moved. A stablecoin payout is confirmed on the blockchain, and the recipient's receipt links directly to the transaction on a block explorer. That gives you and your contractor a verifiable record without trading screenshots.
Keep clean records in one dashboard
Contractors can invoice you through their own portal, and each payment reconciles against that invoice automatically, so payroll, invoices, and receipts all live in one place. Contractors remain responsible for their own local tax and reporting obligations, so confirm the rules that apply to your arrangement, but the paper trail you need is generated for you.
