GigChain Pay: Faster Payouts for the Global Gig Economy
March 12, 20264 min readBy Team Nairobits

Native Teams' GigChain integrates with M-Pesa for on-chain to mobile payouts, automates compliant contracts, and provides a unified wallet for freelancers. It won the Nairobi USA Red, White & Build Hackathon regional finals.
For ride-hailing, delivery, and creative platforms, GigChain shrinks payout cycles from weeks to minutes, while auto-generating local tax docs. Multi-currency wallets let workers hold or convert funds, including access to physical and virtual cards.
Upcoming milestones include deeper tax tooling, real-time FX routing, and expanding rail coverage beyond 85 markets so African gig workers can serve clients globally without payout friction.
