U.S. Market Entry · Service Overview
U.S. Entity
Setup
The first step into the U.S. market.
Compaytence builds the legal, banking, and payment infrastructure global eCommerce merchants need in order to launch in the United States. Entity Setup is where that starts: a compliant U.S. business entity, formed remotely, with the federal registration behind it.

What Entity Setup Is
A compliant U.S. business entity, established as the first step toward entering the U.S. market. It is the Basic plan of the Compaytence U.S. Expansion Suite, and the foundation the two tiers above it are built on.
- The entity, formed remotely. State selection, business registration, and the core formation documents.
- Federal registration, end to end. The EIN application and filing, through to the IRS Form CP 575 confirmation letter.
- The support around it. A U.S. registered agent address, ITIN application guidance, and regulatory compliance support.
Every later step is opened in the entity’s name. A U.S. bank account is held by the company, and a merchant account underwrites the company behind it. That is why the suite runs in this order, and why the Core and Premium plans each begin with everything in the plan below.
Entity Setup is a complete service on its own. If banking or payment processing is the goal, it is also the prerequisite. Core and Premium each include everything in the plan below, so a merchant who already knows they need a U.S. account or a U.S. merchant account starts at that tier rather than buying the plans separately.
What Is Included
Six deliverables, and everything the suite adds later is built on top of them.
We select the formation state for your business and register the entity there. The state you form in governs the filing requirements, the fees, and the agent obligations the company carries from then on.
The EIN is your company’s federal tax identification number. We prepare and file the application, and you receive the IRS Form CP 575 confirmation letter, which is the document banks and payment providers accept as proof the EIN is genuine.
Guidance through the Individual Taxpayer Identification Number application, for owners who do not hold a U.S. Social Security number and need a taxpayer number of their own.
A U.S. address of record for the company. Every state requires one for service of process and official correspondence, and a foreign-owned entity has no default address to use.
The founding paperwork the company runs on, prepared as part of the formation and kept together in one place, because it is the first thing asked for in any account application or underwriting review.
Support keeping the entity aligned with U.S. regulatory requirements, so the structure holds up when a bank, an acquirer, or a payment provider reviews it.
The Three Plans
Entity Setup is the Basic plan. Two tiers sit above it, and each one starts with everything in the plan below rather than replacing it.

Core Plan: Banking Solutions
A U.S. financial account in the entity’s name, so the business can transact globally, receive payments, and hold its operating capital in the market it is selling into.
Fully remote U.S. bank account, guaranteed
Opened without traveling to the U.S., and guaranteed as part of the plan.
FDIC-insured deposits
Federal deposit insurance up to $250,000 on the U.S. account.
Dedicated account manager
One named contact who knows the file, rather than a support queue that starts over each time.
End-to-end compliance
The compliance work that the account application and the ongoing relationship both depend on.
International wires and transfers
Money moves in and out across borders, which is the point of holding a U.S. account while operating from somewhere else.
A banking partner suited to the business
The partner is matched to the business rather than assigned by default, because banks differ sharply on which models and categories they will hold.
Compatibility with global platforms
The account works with the platforms an eCommerce business already runs on.
Premium Plan: Payment Setup
Onboarding with a trusted payment provider from the Compaytence network, so the business can accept payments through the entity and the account the first two plans built.
Guaranteed approvals
Approval with a provider from the network is guaranteed as part of the plan.
Access to a top-tier PSP network
Onboarding through Compaytence’s provider relationships rather than a self-serve signup.
Full compliance and risk review
The business is reviewed before it is submitted, so the application answers the questions underwriting is going to ask.
Lifetime Account Guarantee
The account is backed for as long as it runs.
The currencies and payment methods you want
The settlement currencies and the local payment methods your buyers expect at checkout.
Flexible platform integration
The processing setup connects to the stack the business already runs.
Authorization Rate Analysis
Where transactions are being declined, and what is recoverable.
Chargeback and fraud management
The monitoring and tooling that keep the account inside the card networks’ dispute thresholds.
The Payment Processor Set-Up one-pager covers the payment side in full: the provider network, the compliance audit, token ownership, and what a weak setup costs.

- U.S. banking access.

What Merchants Say
Public Google reviews from merchants we have worked with across the suite.
Compaytence was incredibly professional, highly knowledgeable, and extremely efficient throughout the entire process.

Their expertise, speed, and reliability made a huge difference, and it was clear they truly understand this space. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a competent, results-driven team.
I had a 30-minute call with Lars Funke from Compaytence which was a blast! He gave me genuinely insightful knowledge and valuable advice. Lars is humble and an absolute professional in his field. Big recommendation for any business owner looking for better payment conditions!
We had a great experience working with Mike and his team. They supported us throughout the entire process of setting up our payment processor and were always responsive, professional, and helpful. Their guidance made a complex process much smoother, and we truly appreciated their availability and follow-up at every step. Thank you again to Mike and the whole team for your support!
