Ask HN: How does your employer/client pay you?

Do you get a check? Do they pay you electronically (which service)? Something else?

    For employer/employee:

    Bank wire transfer after withholding taxes and social security contributions. The employer withholds the income tax on the salary and bonuses on behalf of the government, then pays that to the revenue service (cash or check), as opposed to the employee "doing taxes". The employer withholds social security benefits and pay them to social security services on behalf of the employee.

    For client/vendor (B2B): it's either wire transfer or check after sending an invoice.
