You can (could) open a Solo Bank account online - it used to work for European Residents even with Asian or South American passports. No intermediate... As I said before, last time I checked it was working fine (beginning of 2024).

Well, except if you are American (or US resident), you can always open a Solo Bank account in Georgia, remotely... it was an excellent option - I haven't checked lately, but they seem to be legit.

Considering your market, "alternative" countries (Oceania, Africa and the Caribbean) are not an option for marketing reasons. So, since you already have the banking partners (and that is the worst part), if you need something fast, cheap and effective, go with the good old United States - and...

Hmmm... a wiki is a good idea. Since nobody is willing to profit with this information, I believe many of us could collaborate. I will work on it! ;)
