Overseas payment → domestic Tax Accounting automated bridge
Problem
Korean SaaS operators with 1-5 people using overseas payment platforms like Stripe or Paddle spend 6-10 hours each month-end converting foreign revenue to KRW and preparing VAT and withholding tax filing documents. Exchange rate base-date confusion and revenue recognition timing errors trigger 1-2 additional correction requests to tax accountants per quarter, costing $75-$150 (100K-200K KRW) each time.
Solution
Connect via Stripe/Paddle API to automatically convert each transaction to KRW, classify revenue recognition timing, and generate monthly VAT/withholding Tax filing spreadsheets. Outputs in a standardized format for Tax Accounting firms, with alerts for revenue variances caused by exchange rate fluctuations.
