Hey PH 👋 I didn't build this from personal trauma — I've never been ghosted by a client. But the more I read about how freelancers work, the more this problem kept coming up: the awkward "any update on the payment?" email, the trust damage it creates, the feeling of being owed something you can't comfortably ask for. It felt like a solvable problem. The problem felt structurally solvable. Payment-gated delivery exists in e-commerce — Shopify doesn't ship your order before your card clears. Why should digital file delivery work any differently? So I built DidTheyPay. Upload the file, set a price, share the link. Stripe handles the checkout. The file unlocks on payment confirmation. That's it. A couple of things to highlight: • Buyers need no account — the friction is near zero on their side • We take 0% of transactions — just a subscription, so your pricing stays yours • The free plan is real. Five links, actual file delivery, real Stripe payments. Not a sandbox. Use it on a client today before deciding anything. If you've ever delivered a file and then spent a couple of days/weeks wondering if you'd ever see the money — I'd love to know what would've made this a no-brainer for you.
