support international / non-US accounts

chadwhitacre opened this issue · comments

Right now Balanced only supports merchant accounts for US entities. There's a whole world out there. Obviously a big undertaking, but definitely of huge value to Balanced customers.

Would love to know about and potentially use this once available. I am based in The Netherlands. Thanks!

Canada, UK and other european contries would be great.

  • 1 for EU. Starting for the larger markets, specially the ones in the south where there is a lack of good payment solutions, like France or Spain.

+1 Our marketplace is US-based but we need to support international merchants.

Australia would be fantastic. This service looks like a perfect fit for a project for one of our clients, sadly it's probably too late now.

Hey @mahmoudimus @matin @jkwade, what about Payoneer? I learned of them on the Gittip ticket for non-US payouts. I've submitted their inquiry form for Gittip, but it seems like a partnership between Balanced and Payoneer could be really powerful.

Looks like Payoneer is legit:

http://www.payoneer.com/payoneercards.aspx

I see oDesk, Elance, Rent-a-Coder, Veer, etc.

Yes it is legit. I thought it was great until I found out allot of countries like India made it illegal. Check their country list to see if it works for you.

I might be wrong but some marketplaces have since dropped this service.

+1 UK.

I run web forums in which we offer classifieds, and have hundreds of sellers and buyers. Most of these sites are in the UK, and I'd love to offer them a better framework for payments than what I currently offer (nothing whatsoever).

+1 UK/EU

transfast.com also reached out to me. how would this help solve things?

+1 for the Netherlands and EU in general

@jkwade Just had a convo w/ www.trans-pay.com (wholesale branch of www.transfast.com). They're next-day in local currency in 90+ countries. Definitely worth talking to. I can proceed with them or Payoneer directly but would much prefer to run it all through Balanced.

@jkwade I agree with whit537 as they offer a unique LFT solution that is fast and cheap. I am in the process of setting up with transfast. So far so good. We got hit by the holidays so there is a bit of delay in getting set up. The set up requirements are pretty straight forward and dealing with them is 1000% better than most financial service companies. They are flexible and easy to deal with, i.e. not bureaucratic. I reviewed the transfast API and it looks to be solid too.

+1 The Netherlands and European Union

+1 UK and +1 Slovenia (both EU)

👍 US based, would like to run internationally through balanced.

+1 Australia and EU please.

+1 UK. We are desperate for platform like yours.

+1 EU

+1 Canada

I run http://illustrato.rs, a UK-based marketplace, and I'm desperate for a good, affordable payment system designed for marketplaces. I'll sign up the instant you announce EU support.

+1 for Canada -- would love to be a tester as we ramp up http://happenate.com.

This is newly interesting to Gittip again, as we've been rejected by Payoneer.

I'd be interested in being part of any trial you have in UK/EU.

Need to figure out a way to send payments to non-US customers. If not ACH, maybe check or something else temporarily? Check out Xoom.com - that might be a worthwhile integration (they just went public on Nasdaq)
