How SEPA Instant Works in Ireland
Bitwage converts USD to EUR at the locked rate and submits a SEPA Instant instruction. The clearing system routes EUR to the contractor's Irish bank in seconds.
Compliance & Security
Irish contractors must register with Revenue Ireland and issue invoices for self-employed income. Many US tech companies have Irish subsidiaries; Bitwage handles both US-parent and EU-entity payroll flows.
Ireland uses the Euro. For USD-funded payments, Bitwage locks USD/EUR at execution. Ireland is a major EU tech hub, and many companies pay Irish contractors from USD treasury.
