The best way to start an internet business

Starting a company can be needlessly complicated—lengthy paperwork, bank visits, legal complexity, numerous fees, and non-obvious decisions about what services to use. We built Stripe Atlas to make this easy: a tool to handle everything involved in establishing an internet business. It’s available to entrepreneurs everywhere.

Trusted foundation

Stripe Atlas takes the guesswork out of getting started. Set up with standard defaults used by thousands and the leading bank for startups.

Fast and easy

Your incorporated company and new bank account will be ready within days. Keep track of everything in one place.

Knowledgeable community

Connect with other founders and learn from experts. Join an exclusive forum for Stripe Atlas entrepreneurs.

Startup toolkit

Everything you need to start an internet business. Fill out a simple form and we help handle the rest.

Company incorporation

Stripe Atlas incorporates your new company in Delaware—the industry standard for tech companies. We’ll generate the documents, file the paperwork, and obtain your Tax ID number. Your company will generally be open within a couple days. This includes:

  • C Corporation incorporated in Delaware
  • Registered agent, renewed annually
  • Signed Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, and Board Consent
  • IRS Employer Identification Number
  • Free templates for common startup post-incorporation legal needs

Bank account and debit card

Stripe Atlas includes opening a bank account—complete with a debit card—with Silicon Valley Bank, the world’s leading bank for tech companies. You’ll be able to login to your account after e-signing documents; there’s no need to visit a branch in person or to fax paperwork. See more details

Issue stock to founders

Generate and sign documents to issue stock to the founding team, with templates from Orrick and standard legal terms used by many top startups—for free!

Stripe account

We set up a Stripe account that you can use to start accepting payments from customers in 100+ currencies right away. You can take advantage of the complete Stripe product suite, including ConnectSubscriptions, and Radar.
