I understand that. However, I'm not sure if using Atlas is the best choice. For example, will they charge me more money after establishing my company and am I going to be 'trapped' in using SV bank and other services provided by Stripe.

What Stripe Atlas costs Complete package Stripe Atlas has been designed as a turn-key solution for entrepreneurs. Atlas components cannot be used individually (e.g., you can't use Atlas just to open a bank account without also incorporating a company.) Establishing and running any business has both initial and ongoing costs. Stripe Atlas has a one-time fee of $500 (all prices are in USD) that covers: * Incorporating your company in Delaware * Opening your business bank account at Silicon Valley Bank * Registering your company with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) * Your first year of Delaware registered agent services Source: https://stripe.com/docs/atlas https://stripe.com/docs/atlas I understand. It might sound steep and you will certainly want to look at other options, but getting business from the United States could definitely be very beneficial. I do some volunteer work for a company in Malaysia and I know they are using BrainTree and Paypal.
