Frequently Asked Questions

🤔 What if I already use GitHub? Do I need to switch?

Not at all! GitStable works alongside your existing Git workflow. You can keep using GitHub, GitLab, or any Git host. Simply add GitStable as an additional remote to monetize your work without changing your development process.

💰 How quickly do I get paid?

Stablecoin payments arrive in your wallet within 1-3 seconds of client approval. No waiting for bank transfers, no Net-30 terms. The payment is as fast as a blockchain transaction.

🌍 Can I work with international clients?

Yes! Stablecoins work globally without currency conversion or international wire fees. A client in Japan can pay you instantly the same way as someone in your hometown. No banking restrictions.

📊 How do I price my work fairly?

Start with simple pricing: $25 for bug fixes, $100-200 for small features, $300+ for complex work. You can adjust based on client feedback and market demand. Value-based pricing often earns more than hourly rates.

🔒 What about code ownership and licensing?

You retain ownership until payment is completed. Upon full payment, code rights automatically transfer to the client via smart contract. This protects both parties and eliminates payment disputes.

🚀 Can I sell to multiple clients or create tutorials?

Absolutely! You can sell the same tutorial or component to multiple buyers, offer different licensing tiers (personal vs commercial), and build a sustainable education business around your expertise.
