Salag is a client-to-payment workspace for Filipino freelancers billing international clients. It connects agreements, deliverables, client approvals, invoices, and payment matching on one engagement timeline both sides can reference. Salag is not a marketplace, escrow, or surveillance tool.
About Salag
For Filipino freelancers with overseas clients
Built for freelancers who work without a back office
When you freelance for overseas clients, the scope is in email, the approval is in chat, and the invoice is a PDF somewhere. Salag puts agreement, deliverables, approval, invoice, and payment on one timeline both sides can trust.
Salag is a client-to-payment workspace built Philippines-first. Not a marketplace. Not surveillance. Not another disconnected tool. One workspace from agreement to payment.
Why we exist
Built from the friction we kept hitting
The gap
Freelancers do the work. The paper trail is missing.
Employees get HR, contracts, and payroll systems. Freelancers get chat threads, Drive folders, and he-said-she-said when something goes wrong.
The bet
One timeline beats eight disconnected apps
Invoicing tools do not know what was approved. Task apps do not connect to payment. Salag connects agreement through payment on a single client record.
Today
Philippines-first, built for overseas clients
USD plans via Paddle, BIR-ready income export on Professional, Wise and PayPal matching, GCash and Maya recording, and client portals that work without forcing your client to sign up. That is how serious freelancers here actually work.
What Salag stands for
Three outcomes every client job deserves
Structure
Clear agreements, defined scope, and one workspace per client, not scattered files and improvised contracts.
Proof
Deliverables, approvals, and updates timestamped on the client timeline. When questions come up, the record exists.
Payment
Invoices from approved work, SALAG-INV references, Wise and PayPal matching, and income on record.
The problem we solve
Client work should not live in scattered chats
Most products solve one slice. Salag exists because the gap is not invoicing or tasks alone, it is the missing thread between them.
Freelancers face
- Payment questions with no documented approval trail
- Scope creep without a signed agreement on record
- No formal income history for tax, loans, or visas
- Platform fees taking up to 20% of earnings
Clients lack
- No structured approval before payment is due
- Deliverables buried in chat threads and Drive links
- No shared record when scope or billing is questioned

FAQ
Straight answers
Salag is built by an active independent professional who experienced client-work friction firsthand. The product focuses on structure and protection, documentation, not surveillance, not anti-client positioning.
Not always. Clients interact through shared links, Client Workspace portals, invoices, and documents you choose to send. Full workspace access depends on the workflow you set up.
Salag is built Philippines-first for Filipino freelancers billing international clients, with BIR-ready income export, USD subscription billing via Paddle, and Wise, PayPal, GCash, and Maya payment matching on paid plans.
Free covers your first clients (3 clients, 5 agreements, 5 invoices per month). Freelancer adds deliverables, Time Ledger, and automatic Wise/PayPal matching. Professional adds proof package export, BIR-ready income export, dispute packages, and multi-currency tools. Agency adds team seats and white-label Client Workspace. All plans are flat fee with zero commission on your earnings.
The Proof Trail is Salag's append-only record of everything that happened on an engagement, agreements, Proof of Work, approvals, invoices, and payments. Export it as a Proof Package PDF for disputes, loans, visas, or BIR filing.
