    Hong Kong company for sale with HSBC account

    The company was setup in 2011. In 2018 it had a full review by HSBC where we re-submitted all the documents. A company can and will in most cases be sold with a bank account, contrary to what some seem to think on this forum. But it is of course up to the bank to decide if they want to continue...

    UK or USA bank account for Spanich Company.

    I live in Spain as well and Spanish banks should worry everyone who lives here. But currently I think the biggest worry is how the Spanish government will fund the Corona crises, we will see a massive drop in taxes, high unemployment - the cost will sky rocket and the government income crash. It...

    Is Spain "tax friendly" (new business)?

    Being self employed (autonomo) is not bad for the first year or so (I dont recall how long the low tax is for). S.L. comes with massive cost and a tax office that spend most of its time going after small businesses. Estonia have a nice tax regime where there is no corporate tax, you only tax...

    Opening a Belize jurisdiction or somewhere else?

    Stay away from Belize. These days there are so much hassle, and close to impossible to open a decent bank account. Belize is trying to become 'white' (stay off all the black lists) but in their effort they made Belize companies close to useless. Might be OK if this meant banking was easy, but...

    If not having money in crypto, then in what?

    Ownership is the key to building assets and securing assets. The billionaires of the world are not holding bitcoins (other than for fun). They might hold gold to diversify, but their wealth come from owning businesses and real estate. The challenge right now is that stocks are to expensive, the...

    DON'T WORK WITH HIPAY STOP Waste time

    We worked with Hipay in the past, they froze the account the moment sales took off. All was OK with a few thousand euro per month, not when it became tens of thousands of euro. I threatened to file a complain with the financial authorities in France (by DHL, email has no value for process like...

    ePayments may have a hidden agenda, be warned.

    I helped a gambling company get an account with epayments and there have never been any problems. I think they are the only EMI I can think of that never caused any problems. Paysera for example closed down the account after a few transactions.

    Which VPS is the best for hosting an e-shop with?

    This looks like a spam.... But to make it into something useful, UpCloud: World's fastest cloud servers has very good prices for hosting, if you are looking to setup a project that would benefit from cloud hosting.

    Card processing and banking options for Gambling Curacao

    I worked freelance for a Curacao gambling company for over year, this was one of the tasks that took up the most time. What you need is either; an European company owned by the Curacao company, or an EU company owning the Curacao company. This will enable the EU company to sign for processing...

    Suggestions for building a new ewallet / bank account

    To be very honest, when someone enables you to register and claim that you will get an account setup, and then I see under legal that the company has no license yet, I get worried. It is great that Nordea enables you to test stuff, but it seem you are selling something you cannot deliver. In...

    No SSL on public webpage and it does not work on their login page, I guess we can say this is a company to stay away from

    Why use telegram rather than skype?

    In contrast to Telegram, secure messengers such as Signal, WhatsApp and Wire have encrypted end-to-end communications turned on by default. So your chat data is stored, and encrypted, only on your phone or other device that you’re chatting from, and not on a server. My guess is that most...
