I did a short contract with an entity in the US and am trying to figure out how they can pay me. I have a business and a Canadian business account.

Is there a recommended low risk/effort service I should use? I am in Ontario if that matters.

    I’ve used e-transfer, PayPal, and Wise (formerly TransferWise) and they all work. I’m a bigger fan if wise since the conversion fees are the lowest.

    You should not charge tax since its a US company and you don’t owe hst on that work (still need to for income tax though obviously).

    Haven’t used a business account before so I can’t speak to the pros and cons of that approach

      Thanks, especially for the tip on not charging tax. I should do that for my Canadian clients.
