What makes Slash awesome?
- No physical presence needed: You don’t have to visit the U.S. to open the account.
- No ITIN required: Unlike some banks, Slash doesn’t ask for an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) to get started.
- Remote setup: Everything can be done online, from Pakistan.
- Full banking services: With Slash, you get a U.S. business checking account, virtual and physical cards, wire & ACH transfers, cashback rewards, and more.

You’ll need a U.S. business address during the sign-up process, but you don’t have to worry about anything else.
Scounts.pk is here to help you set up your Slash account easily.
We’ve helped many clients open their accounts, and we can do the same for you.
Payoneer: A Tried-and-Tested Solution
Payoneer is one of the most popular choices for international payments. If you want a U.S. business account without leaving Pakistan, Payoneer is perfect for you.
Why Payoneer?
- Global payments: Payoneer is widely used by entrepreneurs to receive payments from U.S. clients, especially freelancers and small business owners.

Zyla Financial: A New Option for Pakistani Entrepreneurs
Here’s something fresh: Zyla Financial. This app is an affordable and practical option for Pakistani business owners looking for a U.S. business bank account.
Why should you consider Zyla?
- Easy online sign-up: Zyla allows you to open an account online from Pakistan, just like Slash.
- Low fees: Zyla offers competitive fees for business banking services, so it’s great if you’re just starting out.
- Multi-currency options: You can hold and transfer money in different currencies, making it perfect for international business.

Wise: Great, But Not for U.S. Business Accounts for Pakistanis
You’ve probably heard of Wise (formerly TransferWise).
It’s a great platform for international money transfers and currency exchange.
However, if you’re a Pakistani resident looking to open a U.S. business bank account, there’s a catch: Wise does not provide U.S. bank details for Pakistani passport holders.
So, if you’re trying to get a U.S. business account number through Wise, it won’t work for you. But don’t worry! You can still use Wise for sending money, exchanging currencies, and making global payments—but not for setting up a U.S. business account.
Also, you will need a trading address for an eligible country (Offcource, they will require a utility bill for address verification)
Airwallex: For Bigger, Multi-Currency Businesses
If you’re running a business that deals with multiple currencies or large international transactions, Airwallex could be the right choice. It’s a fintech company that lets businesses open U.S. accounts and make international payments—all online.
Why Airwallex?
- Multi-currency: Airwallex supports multiple currencies, so you can manage your finances globally.
- Global reach: Airwallex is perfect if you’re planning to expand beyond the U.S. and need a more sophisticated payment solution.
- U.S. account: You can receive payments in U.S. dollars through a U.S. account, making it ideal for larger businesses.
Airwallex is great for those who want to take their business to the next level, but it’s generally more suited for larger businesses. Still, it’s an option worth considering if you plan to grow big and deal with international payments on a large scale.
A Quick Recap of Your Options
Here’s a quick breakdown of the options for Pakistani LLC owners who want to open a U.S. business account:
- Slash Bank: Remote, no U.S. visit needed, no ITIN required. Full banking services and U.S. account.
- Payoneer: Easy online setup, great for international payments, U.S. account available.
- Zyla Financial: Affordable, easy to set up online, great for international business.
