What is a Merchant of Record?
When you sell video content internationally, you're legally required to charge and remit VAT/sales tax in many countries. This means registering for VAT in multiple jurisdictions, calculating correct rates, and filing regular returns.
As your Merchant of Record (MoR), we become the legal seller of your content. The fan's payment comes to us, we handle all tax obligations, and we pay you your royalty.
You don't need to register for VAT in other countries. We handle it all.

How the tax calculation works
1 Fan location
We detect the fan's country from their billing address and IP location.
2 Calculate tax
The correct VAT/tax rate for video content in that jurisdiction is applied.
3 Collect & remit
We collect the tax, file returns, and pay the tax authorities.
