1. Plan · 2. Structure · 3. Verify · 4. Protect · 5. Recover
Stage 1 · Plan
Plan the U.S. move
Decide your structure, tax position, and channels in writing before you build anything.
CEO Blueprint
Three levels, from one decision about one move to a full plan across several entities. Includes introductions to the tax attorneys and CPAs who carry it out.
For: Brands planning a U.S. entry, a new channel, or a fix to a structure already in place.
From $1,250
Stage 2 · Structure
Form the U.S. company
A U.S. company built to match the channel it will sell on, the owners on file, and the tax election behind it.
Verified U.S. Company
The state approves almost anything. Channels, the IRS, and banks read the management, ownership, address, and tax election behind the filing. We decide those first, then form the company to match.
For: Brands whose marketplace account and U.S. representative are handled by their own team or agency.
$1,497
Stage 3 · Verify
Get verified on TikTok Shop U.S.
Three ways in. Two questions decide which one.
1. Is your representative settled?
Not yet, or you have a name and want them screened: Verified U.S. Representative, $497.
Would rather we run the interviews and make the ask: Select, $1,497.
Screened and signed: go to question two.
2. Does your U.S. company already meet the W-9 requirement?
Yes, with U.S. taxes handled: Verified Ready, $997.
No U.S. company yet, one that cannot sign the W-9, or tax questions on the structure before anything is formed: the Verified Path, $2,497. Includes the representative work and the first 90 days.
Either representative package credits toward the next stage: $250 toward Verified Ready, or the full $497 toward the Verified Path. Credit is good for 90 days.
U.S. Business Representative
Guided by us. Chosen by you. Prepared by us. And yes, we help you find them.
For: Brands still deciding who should hold the role, or with a name in mind and nobody yet screened.
$497: you make the ask, prepared by us, with two calls. Select, $1,497: we make the ask, interview up to three of your candidates, and hand you a written recommendation.
Verified Ready
A W-9 check on your company, a character-level file review, a written READY verdict, and registration through our TikTok Shop partner channel.
For: A U.S. company that already meets the W-9 requirement, with taxes handled and a representative screened and signed.
Verified Path
Your tax position is settled with our CEO before anything is formed; then we set up your company, representative, filing, and guided setup in order, including up to two appeal calls and the first 90 days.
For: No U.S. company yet, a structure that doesn’t meet the W-9 requirement, or tax questions you need answered before you form.
Stage 4 · Protect
Keep your accounts verified
Banks, payment processors, and marketplaces keep checking. The structure underneath has to keep up.
Verified Clearance Plan
We review your existing verification file, covering entity, EIN, owner details, address, and bank information, and provide a written plan before you resubmit.
For: Brands with a U.S. company stuck on verification with a U.S. bank, Shopify Payments, Stripe, PayPal, Walmart, or Amazon.
$597
Amazon Insurance Ready
Meet Amazon’s insurance requirement for products in the enhanced-safety categories, with the U.S. structure and tax setup behind the certificate.
For: Foreign-owned brands selling children’s products, cosmetics, supplements, or lithium batteries on Amazon.
$1,997
Plus state and mail fees
Stage 5 · Recover
Recover a rejected or suspended shop
Find out what you can recover before the next appeal goes on your record.
Verified Diagnostic
A clear read on what went wrong, what you can recover, and the right next step.
For: One rejected or suspended shop with an appeal still available.
$597
For agencies and advisors
Some engagements cover more than one brand, or arrive through another professional.
Private equity and agency companies
Several brands, several entities, and one U.S. plan. We scope and price after an introductory call.
Accountants, attorneys, and referral partners
Introduce a client, and our team will follow up directly. We settle the U.S. structure before you begin work.
