Which bank in the US do you recommend for non-US citizens?

[Hivartei]

I am a foreigner (non-restricted country) and am thinking about opening an LLC in the US for a project I will start soon.

I know we will need a bank account in the US to receive money, but it needs to help foreigners send money without restrictions.

Which bank would you recommend?

Thanks!

You mean a virtual bank? If YES, WISE and PAYONEER still works!

 

[Salamouna]

Relay is good option

 

[GenesisOne]

Relay is one of the few that works

Do you want to set it up online or can you go and do it in person? If in person, its easy with Chase.

Hi. Check out Mercury. It also gives you the opportunity to open an account remotely.

Thank you all for the kind support. I already have a Wise account, but thought I'd need another physical bank account for crowdfunding.

Currently I am outside the US so it has to be online online.

I think once I sort things out I will try Relay (and maybe Mercury) as people recommend.

Blessings,

Hivartei

I have created USA LLCs for a couple of agencies and BOA is the best bank you can use as long as you have someone in the US helping you with the C2C payments

Mercury is more flexible than an Olympic gymnast... hit them up.

Mercury is the best options

Hello everyone! My LLC was recently approved by Mercury (non-resident), and I have successfully linked it to my eBay account.
However, I’m concerned because I previously used WorldFirst (JPMorgan Chase accounts) for payouts, and eBay suspended those accounts after about a month. In my tests, only the WorldFirst batch triggered suspensions.
My biggest worry now is a name mismatch. Has anyone here successfully received long-term eBay payouts using Mercury as a non-resident? Any advice on avoiding another suspension would be greatly appreciated!
Meanwhile Wise with USD details works perfectly with missmatch details

I know that Wise is strict but this is a new level of low, crazy sh*t. A lot of people have lost money on Wise and PayPal.

Relay and Mercury are good options, but if you can go to the US, Chase, Wells Fargo, BOA, BOM, and Citi are also good choices.
