The Philippines has 1.5 million freelancers and a massive BPO industry — but Stripe is banned and PayPal has limitations. A US LLC gives Filipino entrepreneurs, VAs, and freelancers full access to Stripe, unrestricted PayPal, and US bank accounts. Your English fluency is already an advantage — now remove the payment barrier.
Secure payment via Stripe. No subscription.
The Philippines has the world's largest English-speaking freelance workforce. A US LLC removes the last barrier between you and international payments.
Accept card payments from customers in 195+ countries through Stripe. Get unrestricted PayPal Business access. Process subscriptions, invoices, and one-time payments through the world's top payment platforms.
We guide you through applications at Mercury, Relay, or Wise Business — neobanks that accept non-resident LLC owners remotely. No US visit needed. Mercury requires a real US address, not a registered agent address.
Move beyond Upwork and Fiverr. Invoice clients directly from your US LLC. Keep 100% of your rate instead of losing 5-20% to platform fees. Your English fluency already puts you ahead — now match it with professional payment infrastructure.
Your existing GCash and Maya accounts continue working for domestic payments. Use Wise to transfer USD from your US bank to GCash or any Philippine bank at real mid-market exchange rates.
The Philippines is the world's BPO capital. If you run a VA agency, a US LLC lets you accept client payments through Stripe, present a professional US entity, and scale beyond freelancer platforms.
Wyoming LLCs provide strong asset protection and privacy. Your personal assets are separated from business liability. No public disclosure of member names in Wyoming.
Wyoming for most Filipino founders — no state income tax, $100 filing fee, strong privacy. We advise based on your situation.
Articles of Organization filed with the Secretary of State. You provide your details, we handle everything. 1-5 business days.
We call the IRS and get your Employer Identification Number issued the same day. This is your business tax ID for banking and Stripe.
We guide you through US bank account applications and Stripe registration. You apply directly with the bank — we prepare your documents and walk you through it.

The most popular choice for non-resident founders. Full US checking account, debit card, and ACH transfers. Important: Mercury requires a genuine US business address — a registered agent (RA) address will be rejected. We help you arrange a virtual office address that Mercury accepts.
Business banking built for small businesses. Multiple checking accounts, profit-first budgeting. Accepts non-resident LLC owners with proper documentation. Good alternative if Mercury is not available.
Hold and convert 40+ currencies including PHP. Transfer USD to your Philippine bank, GCash, or Maya at real mid-market exchange rates. Low transfer fees — typically much cheaper than PayPal withdrawals or traditional wire transfers to the Philippines.
If you own a US LLC as a Filipino citizen, the IRS requires you to file Form 5472 with a pro-forma Form 1120 every year — even if your LLC had zero revenue. This is an information return, not a tax return. The penalty for missing this filing is $25,000 per form, per year. Form 5472 must be filed on paper — it cannot be e-filed. Our compliance bundle handles this for you.
