Indian builders aren’t just building for India. They’re building infrastructure that helps Indian talent work with the world 🇮🇳 @vedantutage03, Co-Founder of @DashxHQ, is tackling one of the most persistent pain points for freelancers, developers, startups, and businesses across India: getting paid internationally. With support for 25+ currencies and settlements directly into Indian bank accounts, the goal is simple: make cross-border payments feel as seamless as local ones. Read their story ↓ “We’re building modern cross-border payment infrastructure that helps Indian freelancers, developers, startups, and businesses get paid by customers around the world, without the delays, complexity, and friction that have traditionally come with international payments. With DashX, businesses can accept payments in 25+ currencies while receiving settlements directly into their Indian bank accounts. We’ve built the experience around speed, transparency, and seamless export documentation so businesses can spend less time chasing payments and more time building. One thing I’ve understood after speaking with hundreds of freelancers and founders across India is that the biggest challenge isn’t finding global customers. It’s getting paid simply, reliably, and without unnecessary friction. The easier we make global payments, the more Indian talent can focus on building instead of banking. We’re excited about a future where getting paid internationally feels as easy as getting paid locally. If you’re building for a global customer base and want to simplify your cross-border collections, I’d love to chat. If you’re at Devcon, come say hi.”
