I'm reluctant to hijack this thread, but please support payments in Panama. These payment links would be a big deal there. Panama uses the USD and has the best developed banking and financial services in all Central America. I've been hoping stripe would get here ever since you launched as a company.
When you launched Atlas I've considered it, but the accounting and taxes are complicated and expensive. I believe one even needs to charge state sales taxes in some states.
- edwinwee 5y agoPanama's on our list! (Assume you've already done so but you can sign up to get notified at https://stripe.com/global#PA https://stripe.com/global#PA.)
- eloff 5y agoI did, but it's been 7 years? More? I lost faith that it might happen. I can't wait to be wrong about that!
- humaniania 5y agoHas Panama fixed their money laundering problems yet?
- eloff 5y agoMostly, yes. The large banks are strict about know your customer rules and willing to divulge information to foreign states depending on tax treaties. Keep in mind the Panama papers you probably are thinking of had little to do with Panama. The law firm was located in Panama, but the corporations and shady financial things were happening in the usual handful of island nations. If the law firm was located in New York it would have been the Manhattan papers - it didn't have much to do with Panama at all.
