Why global tax compliance is complex

Managing international taxes requires specialized knowledge of each jurisdiction's requirements, constant monitoring of changing regulations, and significant time investment. With Creem, you get all the benefits of global sales without the regulatory burden.

A Note from Our Team

While we've presented the costs and complexities of global tax compliance, we want to be transparent: this is absolutely something you and your team can handle without a Merchant of Record service like ours.

Many businesses successfully navigate tax compliance on their own, or take the risk of not being compliant at all, especially when they have dedicated finance teams or specialized accounting partners. Our Merchant of Record service is just one feature of Creem, not its core purpose.

We understand that an MoR solution isn't right for everyone, and we're here to support the founder community regardless of which path you choose.
