Exact same way as with any other jurisdiction, one good and known method is using a payoneer card, easy to apply for and to use worldwide.

Payoneer is fantastic bank card system for anonymous banking and taking out money private in the ATM's - also good to receive money.

Any expeirence with the formation in Cook islands?

 

[JohnLocke]

It's not complicated the process is the same as with any other offshore company you may know about. We need a passport copy and a utility bill so you will be good to go and get the process started. Pretty simple everything.
