In late 2024, I had to set up a new Stripe account because I incorporated my company in a different country. Turns out it&#x27;s not as simple as just changing the country in a dropdown, you have to start from scratch.I had hundreds of users and using Stripe&#x27;s dashboard to add all of the products, prices, coupons and subscriptions manually would take ages. I contacted a couple of services that help with this kind of migration, but their quotes were way over my budget. My next option was to use Stripe&#x27;s API, which is very powerful but also very complicated. I&#x27;m a designer who can code, but I didn&#x27;t feel confident doing it alone, so I asked a friend, an experienced developer, to help.It proved to be quite challenging, with many details and caveats we had to learn as we went. What we thought would take a couple of days took us a week.After this experience, we teamed up and built <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stripemove.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stripemove.com</a>, a tool that guides you through this whole process, explaining and automating that hard week we went through. It handles the technical complexity while keeping your business running. Customers keep paying on your old account while everything transfers in parallel, then you flip the switch when ready.It&#x27;s a very niche tool, built for founders who need to change their company location for personal or business reasons. For entrepreneurs buying companies established in other countries. For people in the same situation I was in a few months ago. Basically the tool I wished existed, and for a fair price. Designed to get you through this inconvenient process and back as soon as possible on growing your business.Would love to hear from anyone who&#x27;s dealt with similar Stripe migrations. What was your biggest pain point?
