US Company
Payment Processor Setup for a Foreign-Owned US LLC
A US LLC and an EIN get you in the door. Processors still want a bank account, a site or listing that matches the company, and an owner they can identify. We prepare the file and stay on the questions. We do not run Stripe, and we do not sell “guaranteed approval.”
Setup support, not a gateway we own
Scriplit already publishes payment-gateway work for websites. This page is the company-side onboarding: legal name, EIN, bank, and beneficial owners. If you also need cards on a Scriplit-built site, that is the Payment Integration service. Both can sit in one brief.
What reviewers actually look at
A live offer, a refund sentence, a matching legal name in the footer, and a bank that can receive payouts. A landing page that says “coming soon” with a Wyoming LLC is a weak file. We will tell you that before you burn an application.
Who this is for
Shopify or custom checkout
You need a US Stripe or similar account tied to the LLC, not a personal account from home.
Marketplace sellers
Payouts have to land in a business account whose name matches the seller of record.
Agencies and freelancers
Invoices in dollars. Clients who will not wire a personal account in another country.
Already declined
A second application with the same thin site usually fails the same way. We fix the file first.
What you get
Matching identities
LLC, EIN, bank, and site footer use the same legal name.
Owner KYC pack
IDs and addresses ready for the people the form asks about.
Processor-specific notes
Stripe is not PayPal. We do not paste one checklist onto every brand.
Website work if you need it
If the blocker is the site, that is a Scriplit web job — quoted separately, not hidden in formation.
How the process works
-
1
Name the processor
Stripe, PayPal Business, Wise, Payoneer, or another path you already started.
-
2
Align the public face
Legal name, product, and refund language on the site or listing.
-
3
Connect the bank
Payouts need an account the processor will credit. Bank setup comes first if that file is empty.
-
4
Submit and answer holds
You apply. We help with document requests. The decision is the processor’s.
What we need from you
- LLC documents and EIN letter.
- A business bank account, or a realistic plan to open one first.
- A URL or marketplace listing that shows what you sell.
- Owner ID for every person the application treats as a controller.
Read this before you start
- High-risk categories get extra review. We will not pretend otherwise.
- A US LLC does not override sanctions or prohibited-business lists.
- Reserve, rolling reserve, or extra ID requests are normal. They are not a Scriplit fee.
Common mistakes
Personal processor, business payouts
Mixing a personal PayPal with an LLC invoice is how accounts get limited.
Applying with a parked domain
Reviewers want evidence of a real offer.
Different doing-business-as everywhere
Trade names that never appear on the Articles confuse KYC.
Paying a stranger for a “aged Stripe”
Do not buy someone else’s account. We will not help with that.
FAQ
Scriplit LLC is a Wyoming company that helps non-residents form US LLCs and prepare US information and tax filings. We are not a CPA firm or a law firm. This page is general information, not advice for your facts. Home-country tax, treaties, and your actual activity can change the result.
