Introducing riven: Get Paid, Your Way

We built a finance app for freelancers and remote teams — combining invoicing, payments, and a smart wallet in one place.

Introducing riven: Get Paid, Your Way

Getting paid should be simple. Send an invoice, get paid, manage your money. But if you’re a freelancer or contractor working with clients around the world, it’s rarely that straightforward.

That’s why we built riven.

The Problem with Getting Paid

Every freelancer and remote worker has experienced the same frustrations:

  • Juggling between invoicing software, payment processors, and banking apps
  • Waiting days for payments to clear
  • Losing money to fees and unfavorable exchange rates
  • Having limited control over your money once it arrives

Traditional financial tools weren’t built for how people work today. They’re fragmented, slow, and expensive.

What We’re Building

riven brings invoicing, payments, and money management into one app:

Create Invoices

Professional invoices in seconds. Add your client, set the amount, choose payment methods (bank transfer / USDC), and send. Track payment status in real-time.

Get Paid Your Way

Clients can pay by bank transfer to your riven virtual bank account or directly in USDC. Bank payments settle as USDC in your wallet. Crypto-native clients can pay instantly on-chain.

Manage Your Money

Your riven wallet is a full-featured wallet on Solana. Hold USDC, swap tokens via Jupiter Ultra, send to any address. Cash out to any US bank via Same Day ACH when you need traditional banking.

Simple Signup, Serious Security

No seed phrases. No complex key management. Just sign up with your email.

Your wallet is powered by Privy’s embedded wallet infrastructure — providing enterprise-grade security without the enterprise-grade hassle.

It’s still self-custodial. We can’t access your funds. But you don’t have to become a security expert to use it safely.

Built for Global Work

riven is designed for people who work across borders:

  • Freelancers billing clients in different countries
  • Contractors who want faster access to their earnings
  • Remote teams managing payments across currencies
  • Web3 teams collecting fiat and paying in crypto
  • Anyone tired of the traditional banking experience

The riven Payment Loop

Here’s how it works:

  1. Create invoice — amount, due date, payment methods (bank transfer / USDC)
  2. Client pays — bank transfer to your virtual account or USDC on-chain
  3. Settlement — bank payments automatically convert to USDC in riven
  4. Use funds — hold USDC, swap, pay wallets, or cash out via Same Day ACH

Clients don’t need crypto to pay you. But you get all the benefits of crypto infrastructure.

Built on Strong Foundations

We didn’t build everything from scratch. riven combines best-in-class infrastructure:

  • Privy — auth + embedded wallets
  • Bridge — virtual accounts + banking rails + ACH cashout
  • Jupiter Ultra — swaps & best execution

Modern wallet UX, real banking rails, and best execution swaps — so getting paid feels normal.

What’s Coming

riven at launch includes:

  • Invoice creation and management
  • Virtual bank accounts for bank transfers
  • USDC payments on-chain
  • Wallet with swap via Jupiter Ultra
  • Send to any Solana address
  • Cash out to US banks via Same Day ACH
  • Transaction history and tracking

On our roadmap:

  • Multi-currency support — Accept and manage more tokens
  • Team features — Invoice and payment management for small teams
  • International expansion — More banking regions

Why Solana

We built on Solana for a reason: it’s the only blockchain fast enough for real payments.

Transactions settle in under a second. Fees are fractions of a cent. The infrastructure is battle-tested and constantly improving.

When you receive a payment or make a swap in riven, it feels instant — because it essentially is.
