How can a Pakistan-based prop firm accept international payments?

Question

Accepted Answer

Founders typically use an overseas company with its own payment processor, crypto payment gateways, or merchant-of-record services that accept the business. Bringing income into Pakistan follows SBP rules on foreign receipts, and export-of-services documentation applies. Plan the money flow with an accountant before launch.
Things to plan:
Which entity sells: a local company or an overseas one.
Processor: many mainstream processors are not available to Pakistani merchants; high-risk or crypto processors are common alternatives.
Repatriation: how income reaches Pakistani bank accounts and what documentation banks require.
Tax: treatment of foreign income for the company and founders.
Payouts: paying traders abroad from the selling entity.
Keep the evaluation business, its payments and its terms in the same entity so the paperwork is consistent. PropExecutor does not handle your traders' payments, so your chosen processor and structure are independent of the platform. This is general information, not legal advice.
### Documentation
Banks may ask for invoices and contracts supporting foreign receipts, so keep them organised from the first sale.
Agree the money flow with an accountant before launch, because changing it after payments have started is harder and slower, and banks look for consistency between your invoices, contracts and the payments they receive.
