Why using a company account when it is so easy to use a personal account.

Also, Thaiepay is a lot easier to set up a payment pateway, especially if you use a Thai name, no need to register any company, just as with Paypal !

I set up online payment for Thai who makes 100k+/month profit and they also never paid any tax.

 

 

 

I am searching for facilities to support a legitimate business. Not for an individual.

Hello,

 

is anybody using paysbuy omise payment on his website / shop ?

 

Are they stupid enough to require a registered company for a Thai business as many of them ?

 

Or are they as smart as Paypal that doesn't care if you are registered or not, especially if you are Thai and/or live in Thailand ?

 

Thanks.

I just signed up to Omise for a test account and it looks like you can register a live account as an individual or a business. Different documents are required to approve the account type.

Im looking for a means of accepting card payments for my Thailand based company and a potential software application we want to sell so thanks ryanhul for the mention about Omise as I hadn't heard of them before,

I already contacted SiamPay and they emailed me a long list of requirements which we probably could accommodate but we are just starting up the project and just want to test it out and it looks like Omise might be a bit more easier to get started with on a smaller scale and with what potentially maybe lower fees. The system looks similar to that of Stripe. I'll probably try to sign up. Anyone else had any experience with a merchant account for a small Thailand based business?

Also, our Thai company was given a savings account at Bangkok bank which is an account that doesn't have a debit or credit card available and all transactions are 'over the counter' only with a company stamp so its not possible to pay for online services such as advertising, hosting, and everything else, from this account.

I asked at one of the smaller Bangkok bank branches and they told me I needed to ask for a checking account at one of the larger BKK bank branches although I remember asking for internet banking for the company account a few years ago and they just said something along the lines of 'not available for this account'. I wasn't able to find an English speaking employee at this particular branch and so it was difficult to make any headway and regrettably my Thai language isnt good enough yet to negotiate corporate banking facilities. 

Does anyone have any experience with a bank that is 'straight forward' to obtain a business debit or credit card for a Thai business or are there any restrictions and/or requirements to meet? 

Also I suppose a personal visa/mastercard debit or credit card would do in the meantime to test things out but it would need to be for my Thai personal bank account. Im with Kasikorn bank and im not sure if the debit card would work online or not? Any ideas?
