One of the biggest challenges for Korean e-commerce companies entering the global market is establishing a payment system. To expand overseas sales, they need to utilize a global payment gateway, which offers a variety of payment methods. However, registration is often limited to a Korean corporate account alone. Consequently, many companies are considering integrating with global payment gateway through their Hong Kong subsidiary.
The Upsides of a Hong Kong Corporation
Hong Kong, a global financial hub, boasts a flexible financial environment offering numerous digital accounts and banking services. In particular, Hong Kong entities enjoy high international recognition, and registration with the global payment gateway is possible through corporate or digital accounts in Hong Kong. This is often limited for Korean corporate accounts, making establishing a Hong Kong entity an essential alternative.
9 Perks of Integrating a Hong Kong Corporation with a Global Payment Gateway
Simpler Global Payment Gateway Integration
An entity in Hong Kong can seamlessly integrate with global payment solutions such as PayPal, Stripe, and Adyen, allowing numerous payment options to international clients.
Flexibility of Digital Accounts
In addition to traditional bank accounts, there are numerous digital account options, allowing you to manage your funds quickly and efficiently. In particular, the Hong Kong Digital Account supports Korean won (KRW) deposits, making it easier to manage funds spent within Korea and simplifying international transactions.
Lower Fees and Quicker Processing
Hong Kong’s banking and digital payment systems boast fast transaction processing and competitive fee structures, significantly reducing costs and improving operational efficiency for businesses.
Improving the Corporate Credit Rating
Establishing a legal entity in Hong Kong, a global financial hub, and operating a payment system through it can enhance your legal entity’s credibility on the international stage.
Support for Numerous Currencies
Utilizing a Hong Kong corporation provides access to financial solutions that support a variety of foreign currencies, minimizing the inconveniences of currency exchange and payments that may arise in multinational transactions.
Simplified Legal Procedures
Hong Kong corporations have a legal structure that is advantageous for international business transactions, and the related regulations and legal procedures are relatively simple, making overseas transactions smooth.
Expanding Access to Global Markets
Connecting with the Global Payment Gateway through a Hong Kong entity expands your reach to consumers worldwide, making it especially valuable for businesses targeting the Asian, European, and North American markets.
Efficient Fund Management
Hong Kong corporations enjoy relatively loose foreign exchange controls, allowing free inflows and outflows of funds. This provides a significant advantage in terms of flexibility in managing funds arising from overseas transactions.
Tax and Exchange Benefits
Hong Kong offers a low corporate tax rate and various tax incentives, helping businesses reduce costs. Furthermore, foreign exchange transactions conducted in Hong Kong have relatively low exchange fees, making them advantageous for managing funds.
Key Differentiating Factors Between Korean and Hong Kong Corporations
Korean corporate accounts often have restrictions or high fees for registering with international payment gateways. Conversely, Hong Kong corporate accounts offer easier integration with global payment gateways and offer digital account options that support a variety of currencies, including the Korean Won (KRW), for more efficient fund management. Legal frameworks for international trade are also significantly more favorable.
