If the USD details are issued to you personally while the Stripe account is owned by the LLC, that’s a destination mismatch - not a reconciliation problem.

What I don't have is a US bank account to receive Stripe payouts into.\n\nAlready ruled out: Mercury and Relay (both need a US resident/citizen), Wise (won't issue USD details to a Pakistan address), Airwallex (applied fully, rejected).\n\nElevate Pay says they support US LLCs with Pakistani ownership and issue a USD account with a routing number. My business account application is under review now.\n\nMy actual question: if you've had an Elevate Pay business account approved - whose name are the USD account details issued in? The company's, or your personal name?\n\nThat's the whole thing for me. Stripe requires the payout bank account to match the Stripe account holder's legal name exactly. If Elevate issues the details in my personal name, it's useless to me. Their support wouldn't confirm either way before approval.\n\nAlso useful if you know:\n\n•Did Stripe's micro-deposit verification pass on it?•Any problems receiving Stripe ACH payouts?\n\nAnd if you solved this a different way from Pakistan, I'd rather hear that than keep guessing.",
