The cost to run an LLC, not just to start one.
Every founder needs formation, a registered agent, an EIN, an operating agreement, ongoing compliance, bookkeeping and a federal tax return. Here is the full first-year cost on identical scope.
StartGlobal
then $149/month fully managed, or a la carte from $99/year • one platform • everything included
- LLC formation + state filing fee
- Registered agent
- EIN (Tax ID)
- US business bank account setup
- Operating agreement
- Annual report & compliance
- Bookkeeping
- Federal tax filing
Jestiyon
Single provider
- All-inclusive plan (Pro: formation, RA, EIN, bookkeeping, tax) + state fee $1,400
One platform, fully managed.
Jestiyon can land near StartGlobal on price, but you would still run bookkeeping and tax filing as separate pieces. StartGlobal keeps formation, bookkeeping and federal tax filing in one place, done for you, with US-based support and a money-back guarantee, for a one-time $399 to form and a flat $149/month fully managed (or a la carte from $99/year).
First-year cost for a single-member, foreign-owned LLC in Wyoming (~$100 state fee), ~1,000 transactions / ~$100k revenue. Where Jestiyon does not offer bookkeeping or tax filing, we use third-party benchmarks (bookkeeping $2,400/yr, federal tax filing $800/yr) so the scope matches. *Some Jestiyon prices are quote-only and estimated. Competitor pricing as of 2026-06 and may change.
Why founders switch to StartGlobal
Real concerns reported by Jestiyon users, and how we fix them.
Very Poor Communication
“Very poor communication and very poor follow up. Unprofessional.”
Trustpilot reviews cite poor communication and lack of follow-up as major issues. With only 2 reviews total, even one negative experience is a significant warning sign.
StartGlobal responds to every inquiry within 24 hours. Our support team is staffed by human experts, not chatbots, and we provide proactive updates throughout your formation process.
Virtual Address Problems
A customer reported that their Jestiyon virtual address lease contract was not accepted by Amazon, causing their seller account to be suspended. This can have serious business consequences.
StartGlobal provides US business addresses through established providers. Our addresses are widely accepted by major platforms including Amazon, Stripe, and PayPal.
Almost No Track Record
Founded in 2022 with only 2 Trustpilot reviews, Jestiyon has a very limited public track record. There is minimal evidence of successful formations at scale.
StartGlobal has formed 5,000+ companies across 150+ countries with an established reputation and consistent reviews from real clients.
Bank Account Is "Support" Not Setup
Jestiyon offers bank account "support" rather than actual setup assistance. The distinction matters: you get advice rather than hands-on help opening your account.
StartGlobal includes actual bank account setup. We work with banking partners to ensure your US business bank account is opened successfully.
LLC Formation
Everything you need to launch, in one package.
Registered Agent
IncludedEvery US LLC is legally required to have a registered agent: the official point of contact that receives legal documents, lawsuits, and state notices on your behalf. We act as your registered agent in your formation state and forward anything that arrives straight to you.

- State filing fees included, no surprise charges
- We track your filing through to approval
Business Tax Number

- We handle the entire application for you
- No U.S. SSN needed
