Outpost
Merchant of Record and Tax of Record platform — local entities per market, full audit liability, and 25–40% higher payment approval rates.
European payments & finance alternative based in UK.
Outpost provides Merchant of Record and Tax of Record infrastructure, enabling businesses to sell globally while Outpost assumes all legal, tax, and compliance liability. By establishing dedicated local entities in each target market — rather than pooling merchants together — it unlocks region-specific payment methods like PIX (Brazil) and UPI (India) with approval rates 25–40% higher than shared MoR providers.
The Tax of Record service handles VAT, GST, and Sales Tax registration, real-time calculation, and filing across LATAM, EU, USA, and APAC — with Outpost accepting full audit liability and covering any penalties incurred. AI-powered compliance monitoring continuously tracks regulatory changes and adjusts processes automatically.
Key benefits:
- Dedicated local entities per market — no pooled merchant structures
- 25–40% higher approval rates via localised payment routing
- Local payment methods including PIX, UPI, and region-specific options
- VAT/GST/Sales Tax filing across LATAM, EU, USA, and APAC
- Full audit liability coverage — Outpost pays any penalties incurred
- AI compliance monitoring for real-time regulatory change detection
Outpost operates across LATAM, EU, USA, and APAC jurisdictions, establishing legal entities in each market to maximise payment performance and compliance coverage. Its EU infrastructure enables GDPR-compliant processing for European merchants, with dedicated legal teams handling local regulatory requirements in every supported region.
