What I mean promptly with this is that Clerky does not allow you to open a bank account but recommends some and for this you must have a presence in the United States and in the case of Stripe Atlas to open an LLC you must be an American citizen (although in my case it is for a C-Corp).

Hey, I'm one of the founders of Clerky - we actually recently added an integration with Mercury, that allows people anywhere to open a bank account. There's more info here: https://help.clerky.com/article/2647-bank-account-integratio...
I'm also about to pick between Clerky & Stripe Atlas. I'm scheduled to talking to someone at Stripe soon. Anyone I can speak to at Clerky. I'm a foreign citizen but in the US at the moment. Olu@liferithms.com incase you can connect me to someone at your company.
Of course, feel free to reach out to support@clerky.com with any questions you have!
Is Mercury the same as SVB? (which is a real bank) Because if so, I could opt for Clerky but for example the SVB gives me a debit card to be able to consume directly from the account and the possibility of making bank transfers to my country.
The banks are all different from each other in various ways, but to answer your question, yup Mercury provide debit cards too! Not sure about the nuances of what you're looking for in terms of transferring money, you might need to check with them on that.
