DevStudio is a Lagos-based software agency with clients across Nigeria, the UK, and Canada. Before Saharix, they relied on wire transfers and personal trust to manage client payments — a system that worked until it didn't.
The problem
In 2022, DevStudio lost significant value on projects where clients disputed final payments after deliveries were made. They needed structured proof and protected funds.
The Saharix solution
DevStudio integrated Saharix into their contract workflow. Projects are split into design, backend, frontend, and launch phases with escrowed funds tied to each milestone.
The results
Since adopting milestone escrow, DevStudio reports stronger payment confidence, cleaner client communication, and fewer unresolved disputes.
Their advice
"The hardest part was introducing a new workflow. Once clients saw transparency and protection on both sides, it became a trust advantage."
