Your US LLC.Your EIN.Ready in 7–10 days.
Caribbean founders face a wall that US entrepreneurs never see. No US entity. No US bank. No way into the platforms, suppliers, and clients that could change everything.
BecomeFounder tears it down. We register your US LLC, file your EIN, and handle your compliance — giving you the same legal foundation as any entrepreneur building from the US. Built for Caribbean founders. No travel required. Just results.
How It Works
Six steps from zero to US LLC.

What You Unlock
One LLC.
A world of infrastructure.
Your US LLC is the key that opens every door. Once it's active — and your EIN is issued — you can independently set up your entire payment and banking infrastructure.
We handle the registration. You own the infrastructure. Everything below becomes available to you independently once your LLC and EIN are in place — and our DIY Payment Setup Guide (included in Growth + Complete) walks you through every step.
US business bank account — no monthly fees, USD debit card, ACH and SWIFT transfers.
Second US business bank account — no fees, up to 20 sub-accounts, ideal for separating income, expenses, and savings.
Multi-currency account — hold USD, TTD, GBP, EUR, and 40+ currencies. Real exchange rates.
Accept card payments in TTD, USD, and 135+ currencies from customers anywhere in the world.
Via Stripe payment links — your customers tap once on their iPhone and pay instantly.
Via Stripe payment links — tap-to-pay for Android customers. No card details needed.
Accept international payments globally — requires a US LLC and EIN to activate properly.
B2B payment platform — receive payments from international clients and wholesale buyers directly. Widely used across the Caribbean and Latin America for cross-border trade.
Access suppliers, wholesalers, and platforms that require a US business entity to work with.
Sell on platforms that require a US entity for full account access and USD payouts.
Sign legally binding US contracts and agreements under your LLC — taken seriously by US clients.
Get a real US street address for your LLC — receive mail and packages, satisfy bank and supplier requirements, and keep your home address private.
We handle the registration. You own the infrastructure.

FAQ
Everything you need
to know.
No. Everything is handled remotely. You provide your passport, a utility bill, and basic business information. All documents are delivered digitally to your email.
The IRS only processes EIN applications from non-US residents by fax — not online. This typically takes 4–8 weeks after your LLC is approved. We handle the fax filing completely and deliver your EIN confirmation letter (CP575) digitally once issued.
Your LLC is active and legally registered from the moment it's approved. You can sign contracts, register business names, and begin applications that only require your LLC documents. Banking and Stripe require your EIN, so those come after — our DIY Payment Setup Guide covers the full process step by step.
A professionally designed step-by-step PDF guide covering how to independently set up Mercury, Wise, Stripe, Apple Pay, and Google Pay using your LLC and EIN. Includes screenshots, links, common errors, and troubleshooting notes. Included in Growth and Complete packages, or available as a $49 add-on.
Yes — it is legally required. The Corporate Transparency Act requires all US LLCs to file a Beneficial Ownership Information report with FinCEN (the US financial crimes regulator). LLCs formed after January 1, 2024 must file within 90 days of formation. The penalty for non-compliance is up to $591 per day. We handle the filing completely as an add-on for $199, or it's included in the Growth and Complete packages.
Wyoming requires an Annual Report filing every year to keep your LLC active and in good standing. If you miss it, the state can administratively dissolve your LLC — which puts any bank accounts or contracts under that entity at risk. Our Annual Compliance add-on ($199/yr) means we remind you, file it, and send confirmation. Year 1 is included in the Complete package.
Yes. Forming a US LLC as a non-US resident is completely legal. Wyoming has zero restrictions on foreign ownership. No Central Bank approval is required to hold a foreign bank account in most Caribbean territories. We always recommend consulting a local accountant regarding your home country tax obligations on international income.
Get in touch with the package you want and we'll walk you through payment — pay securely by card. Full payment is required before setup begins.
Wyoming is recommended for most Caribbean entrepreneurs — ecommerce stores, service businesses, and freelancers. Lower annual cost ($60/yr vs Delaware's $300/yr franchise tax), stronger asset protection, and no franchise tax. Choose Delaware if you're building a tech startup, planning to raise venture capital, or want the credibility of the state where 60%+ of Fortune 500 companies are formed. If unsure, start with Wyoming — converting to Delaware later is simple and affordable.
An ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) is your personal US tax ID — separate from your LLC's EIN. You need an ITIN if you want to file a US tax return, claim tax treaty benefits, build a US credit history, or access Amazon FBA programmes. It is not required to open your LLC or activate Stripe. We file your ITIN 100% remotely via an IRS Certified Acceptance Agent for $399. Your passport never leaves your hands. IRS processing takes 6–11 weeks.
A US Virtual Mailbox gives you a real US street address — not a PO Box — where your LLC can receive mail and packages from any carrier. Mail is photographed and uploaded to an app so you can view, forward, scan, or shred it from anywhere. Many US banks, suppliers, and platforms require a real US street address during account setup. Your Registered Agent address covers legal notices only — a Virtual Mailbox covers everything else. From $29.99/month via our trusted partner.
Yes. We offer standalone services for existing LLC owners — EIN filing ($149), BOI Report ($199), Annual Compliance ($199/yr), and our DIY Payment Setup Guide ($49). Get in touch with your situation and we'll let you know exactly what you need.
