Startglobal is an all-in-one US business formation and management platform designed for entrepreneurs worldwide. The service handles every step of launching a US LLC — from filing Articles of Organization in any of the 50 states, to obtaining a Federal Tax ID (EIN) with the IRS, to opening a US business bank account through partners like Mercury and Lili — all without requiring the founder to travel to the United States.
For a flat $149/month, Startglobal bundles formation with ongoing compliance management. This includes a registered agent with a verified US business address, annual state report filing, monthly bookkeeping aligned to US standards, and federal tax filing for both single-member and multi-member LLCs. Crucially, state filing fees are included — there are no hidden government charges or add-ons. The platform proudly serves entrepreneurs from 150+ countries and has earned a 4.5/5 rating on Trustpilot based on 262 verified reviews.
Startglobal's service suite extends beyond formation with a set of business tools under its Solutions umbrella:
- US Mailing Address — A professional US address for receiving business mail
- US Phone Number — A local number with call forwarding
- StartGlobal Payments — Send invoices and receive payments globally
- StartGlobal Team — Internal team communication tools
- StartGlobal Care — Built-in customer support infrastructure
- StartGlobal Referrals — Referral program management
The platform is particularly well-suited for non-US residents who need a legitimate US legal entity, EIN, and bank account to access US payment processors, investors, and customers. Startglobal handles IRS SS-4 filings even for founders without a US Social Security Number, removing a major barrier for international entrepreneurs.
Backed by investors including Techstars and partnered with Mercury for banking, Startglobal positions itself as a credible alternative to services like Stripe Atlas and Doola, with transparent all-inclusive pricing and a 100% refund guarantee. The subscription can be cancelled at any time, making it a low-risk entry point for global founders exploring the US market.
