5% of our clients operate in the construction sector, where payment challenges are especially intense. But why is this industry so affected? Imagine waiting 94 days to get paid. For many in construction, that’s the norm, as highlighted in a report by PYMNTS. Yet, cash flow is critical to keeping operations running smoothly. In 2023, 73% of contractors had to cover material costs upfront due to late payments. Meanwhile, 72% of subcontractors faced delayed payments, often resulting in missed or postponed wages for their workers. Aria is changing that. Our clients now experience payments in just 15.79 days on average—reshaping their cash flow management. No matter your industry, let’s work together to reduce your payment delays.

Today, we celebrate freelancers, independent contractors, small business owners, and all those who have chosen the path of independence 💪 In 2023, self-employed workers contributed over €1 trillion to the European economy according to Malt report, a figure that highlights the immense value and impact of independent work across the continent. At Aria, we get it—our roots are in the freelancing world. Aria was born from the firsthand experience of two former freelancers who faced the same struggles with late payments and income uncertainty. Today’s a perfect moment to reflect on our story. To reaffirm our mission. And to give a nod to all those independent workers driving our clients' success. Happy Independent Worker Day ☀
