Why not also using Bitwage? Here is a guide you should read: https://darth-coin.github.io/beginner/be-paid-in-bitcoin-using-bitwage-en.html (Spanish version here)

Bitwage is a good service, but is not a P2P market for buying or selling BTC. Also, you need to share all your personal data in order to use the service.

Thanks for sharing.
Question: I am assuming:
fill in the personal data,
that you mention in your guide is KYC information (name, address, etc..) that many sites require. Is that your experience with Bitwage?

Yes is KYC. But is an easy start to "be paid in BTC". For freelancers working remote or abroad is a nice an easy way to get directly BTC into your own wallet. Keep in mind: the IBAN is not in your name, is in Bitwage name. Is a good decoy.
I was a Bitwage user from the beginning, in 2015. Worked for me perfectly fine. ofc starting with 2018 I didn't use it too much, just sporadically because I start being paid directly in BTC. But when I deal with clients that (still) do not have BTC to pay me, I just send them my Bitwage details and done. No big deals.

Do you have any experience with Bitpay?
I'm looking for a bitcoin BillPay service in America, and they seem to be the only ones....
Right now I'm getting my direct deposit in bitcoin through cash app, looking to transition to using my node as my main checking account.

Never used Bitpay and will never use it. They should not exist. They are the enemies of bitcoin! Boycott them ! Here is a list https://darth-coin.github.io/beginner/pay-with-bitcoin-en.html
IMHO the best way to pay bills with BTC is to have a pre-coiner friend that pays for you the fiat bills and you give him sats.

In this way feels like you just pass the responsibility to pay with dirty fiat to someone else. There are other ways to pay bills does it matter if you own or rent, is just question to learn how.

In some way you help your friend to get rid of his fiat and get sats and in the same time you do not touch fiat (forced to sell sats for fiat and use a bank acc).

Sprintz finance looks ok, but has way too much crypto stuff for me to feel comfortable using them.
I could use my wife, but It would be be better if she joined me on a bitcoin standard.......might just use my wife until better solutions come about.
