- antoinevg 10y agoOur situation is quite complex but the tl;dr is: We were already incorporated in SA but we also needed to be incorporated in the USA if we wanted to keep serving our customers.

When you're a small bootstrapped startup on the bottom of the world, charging in a relatively unknown currency doesn't sit well with international customers
