Package 1 — Your Own Airwallex Setup
Establish and control your own Hong Kong company, Airwallex Business Account and Payment Gateway.
Two paths to Airwallex
Rejected by Airwallex or Want to Know Your Chances Before Applying
Atlas Pay Partners helps international e-commerce businesses build the company, payment and operational infrastructure they need through two specialized solutions.
Every case begins with a private business assessment supported by our former Airwallex employee and partner channel.
- Hong Kong company formation
- Airwallex pre-assessment
- Business Account
- Payment Gateway
- Managed infrastructure
Every business is assessed individually. Final account and payment-product decisions remain subject to Airwallex’s review.
Package 2 — Partner-Managed Infrastructure
Operate through a premium e-commerce and payment infrastructure owned and managed by our team.
The problem and the two solutions
Your Payment Problem May Be Bigger Than One Closed Account
Many businesses contact us after:
- Their Airwallex application was rejected
- Their previous Airwallex account was closed
- Stripe or Shopify Payments restricted their account
- They formed a company before checking provider eligibility
- Their website or documents failed compliance review
- Their finances became fragmented across multiple platforms
Opening another company without understanding the original problem can produce the same outcome.
We review the entire business behind the application, including its ownership, website, products, operating history, fulfilment model, expected volume and commercial evidence.

Designed for eligible founders who want complete ownership and control.
The package can include:

Premium
Package 2 — Partner-Managed Infrastructure
Designed for qualified businesses that require a professionally operated alternative.
The package can include:

- Operational and compliance oversight
- Settlement and reporting procedures
- Ongoing e-commerce support
- Premium managed service
The Airwallex partner advantage
Know Where Your Business Stands Before You Apply
Most incorporation agencies register the company first and leave the client to manage the financial account application alone. We begin with a business-readiness and eligibility assessment. Through our former Airwallex employee and partner channel, we review:
- Previous Airwallex account history
- Current or proposed company structure
- Products or services
- Website and customer journey
- Target markets
- Expected monthly processing volume
- Average order value
- Fulfilment process
- Supporting business documents
Get an Initial Assessment Before Paying for the Full Setup
The assessment helps us determine whether you should:
- Proceed with your own Hong Kong company and Airwallex setup
- Correct specific weaknesses before applying
- Apply for the partner-managed option
- Avoid proceeding if the business is unsuitable
Real results, real businesses
Place two or three short video testimonials directly below this section. Each testimonial should clearly show:
- The client's type of business
- The problem they faced
- What your team completed
- The genuine outcome
The assessment identifies likely eligibility and preparation issues. It does not constitute guaranteed or final approval.

How it works, timeline and payment terms
From Private Assessment to Operational Setup
Some stages run at the same time, helping us prepare the business without unnecessarily extending the total process.
1
Step 1 — Book Your Private Call
Estimated time: 20–30 minutes
We discuss your business model, website, company situation, previous account history, estimated processing volume and required Airwallex products.
Payment: Free.
2
Step 2 — Business Audit and Partner Pre-Assessment
Estimated time: 1–3 business days
You provide your website, information about what you sell and the requested business documents.
We review the case with our former Airwallex employee and partner channel to identify likely concerns and determine the most appropriate path.
Payment: Free.
3
Step 3 — Receive Your Recommendation
Estimated time: Within 1 business day after assessment
You receive one of four recommendations:
- Proceed with Option 1
- Apply for Option 2
- Make corrections before proceeding
- Do not proceed because the business is unsuitable
We then explain the package, responsibilities, required documents, expected timeline and service agreement.
Payment: If the case is accepted, 30% of the setup fee is paid upfront for Option 1 and 50% of the setup fee is paid to begin for Option 2.
4
Step 4 — Company Formation and Business Preparation
Estimated time: 5–7 business days
For Option 1, we establish the client-owned Hong Kong company.
For Option 2, we prepare the managed operating structure. This may require approximately two additional business days.
During this period, we also prepare the website, policies, company information and supporting commercial documents for onboarding.
Major website development or custom work outside the package is quoted separately.
5
Step 5 — Airwallex Account and Payments Onboarding
Estimated time: 5–10 business days
We coordinate the Business Account application using the prepared company and business information.
Once the account is approved and eligible, we support the additional Payment Gateway onboarding and settlement configuration.
Additional questions, documentation requests or compliance reviews may extend the timeline.
Payment: The remaining 50% is payable after successful account approval and before final activation, integration or handover.
Government fees and committed third-party expenses are non-refundable once registration or external services have been submitted.
6
Step 6 — Integration and Launch
Estimated time: 1 day or less
After the relevant products are activated, we hand over the account login details to the client and assist with integrating the payment gateway into their Shopify, WooCommerce or other supported online store, including basic testing to ensure transactions can be processed successfully.
For Option 2 clients, we also hand over the account login details and assist with integrating the payment gateway into the client's online store, ensuring the system is fully ready to start processing payments.
The ongoing management fee and any agreed transaction-based charge begin only when the managed infrastructure becomes operational.
Estimated total timeline
Approximately 2–4 weeks. These timelines are estimates. Additional compliance checks may cause delays, which may take up to 4 weeks in such case, otherwise 2 weeks or less are enough to get the account approved and ready.
