COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I need to register a company to obtain a license?
There are no requirements for a specific jurisdiction, but we often recommend Costa Rica. The corporate tax rate there is 0%, and the company registration procedure is simple and can be done remotely.
Can you help with opening an account and connecting a merchant account?
Yes, we can assist with opening a bank account and connecting a merchant account.
What is an offshore license?
An offshore license is a license that allows operations in multiple countries simultaneously.
Do I need to physically come to obtain a license?
In some jurisdictions, this is required, but not in Kahnawake. This is another advantage of this jurisdiction.
What is a payment agent?
A payment agent is a company that processes payments on behalf of the licensed company. It is registered in jurisdictions with a high level of trust, which simplifies the procedure for opening accounts. Our specialists will help you choose the appropriate jurisdiction for the payment agent, considering your preferences, tax optimization opportunities, and legislative requirements.
