Why This Matters for Sri Lankans
For years, freelancers, small entrepreneurs, and individuals in Sri Lanka faced one major challenge: receiving international payments easily without registering a business. Whether you were selling digital services, dropshipping through Shopify, or working as a freelancer, the lack of accessible international payment solutions created a frustrating barrier.
But now, that's changing. Thanks to Dialogue Genie, Sri Lankans can set up an international online payment gateway without owning a company and the best part is, it only takes a few days.
In Sri Lanka, accessing international payment gateways has traditionally required:
- A registered business or company incorporation
- Complicated documentation
- Long waiting times for approval
This meant freelancers, individuals, and small online sellers were locked out of global opportunities. Dialogue Genie changes that.
Now, individuals can obtain a fully functional payment gateway in just a few days with no business registration required. This makes it possible for anyone to:
- Sell on Shopify, Etsy, or personal websites
- Receive payments from clients worldwide
- Access international customers without friction
