Agreed, this is a massive pain - I'd love to start using them but I need to bill in USD, and getting a US bank account from the UK is a big unknown.

I spoke to them at their hack day in London at the beginning of April, and they said they expected to solve this in 1-3 months. So hopefully within the next 6 weeks if we're optimistic!

That's good to know. I've not put Stripe live because of this. It all looks great, but the inability to handle multiple currencies is a deal breaker for now.

GBP, USD, and EUR are a minimum, imo. Been doing that elsewhere since the 1990s. That's not meant to be snarky, simply factual.

Did they give any indication of how they're going to solve it?

Hopefully something as 'simple' as USD charges getting sent to my GBP account, taking a forex hit along the way. I'd rather that than the red tape of setting up a US account.

Personally I want them to send $USD to a UK bank in $US. I set one of these up with barclays; it was trivial and low fees. Can then use transferwise to get $USD into £GBP and avoid the 2.5% forex tax our lovely banks charge.
