I am not a US citizen, I will start working as a Freelancer.
The most crucial thing is that I want to receive my money from clients as soon as 3-4 days or even instantaneously in some sort of an e-wallet.

PayPal holds payments for 21 days. Other options like square, cashapp or stripe are all not available for me cause I am not a US citizen.

Payment gateways like 2checkout, PayPal flow, etc... All require complicated information and they deal with you as a business, and I am only a guy (individual) who does video editing.

I also tried finding platforms like fiverr or gumroad, both process credit card payments on their own and then release you the money. However, they hold on to the money for too long.

I didn't consider Bitcoin as a solution cause if my client is gonna but btc they will get into a lot of verification hassle. Plus, it creates trust issues for my new clients.

Do you know any trick to receive the money as fast as 3-4 days?
 
I use Paypal, and Crypto. Easy and fast. For bigger ones i use Escrow.
 
Hello which wallet should i use for someone to pay me via crypto? I have binance only.
Depend on your country. I use my local exchange so i can convert to my currency once i received btc from client. you can try Exodus, and trust wallet.
 
Use PayPal for some time. They hold your money for 21 days only for new accounts. Once you accept 10-15 payments, you'll do okay.
The second solution is to create your website and apply for a payment gateway like stripe or ccavenue or 2checkout. They process payments faster. But initially fo 3-4 payments, everyone hold the amount to check the authenticity of your service
