Thanks for you reply.

I'm not trying to evade taxes or get into legal trouble. It just looks like it is easier to start (and maintain) a US company and get a Stripe.com account, than it is to get a merchant account and a payment gateway over here.

Because the US company is simply reselling the subscriptions, every sale will be passed through to my company here, so I don't really see any tax headaches.

I am simply wondering if it is legal to use a US company for this.

I believe people use corporate shells all the time for things similar to what you are describing. However don't take my word on that But you will still need to pay corporate taxes here in America. Good Luck!
