"Reach provides a one-stop solution for cross-border payments with local acquiring capabilities. Tax compliance was a big challenge, especially in Europe, and Reach enabled us to meet those requirements without straining our team.

The Situation

As Everlane’s international popularity grew, they knew it was time to take their brand global. But with expansion, came challenges.

Everlane’s international customers faced significant checkout friction due to limited payment options, and the inability to offer preferred local payment methods. Additionally, global customers had to pay in US dollars, subject to the exchange rate at the time of purchase. These issues combined to result in lower international conversion rates.

The desire to tackle new markets like Europe and Australia brought another layer of complexity: strict local tax regulations. Everlane needed a partner that could manage these complicated compliance requirements without straining their in-house team.

The Solution

After an in-depth request for proposal process, Everlane selected Reach as its partner for cross-border expansion. Reach’s comprehensive Merchant of Record (MoR) solution provided Everlane with:

Local Payment Options

Reach enabled Everlane to support the most popular and familiar local payment methods, improving international customers’ shopping experience by eliminating checkout friction.

Simplified, Transparent Pricing

Reach provided Everlane with the ability to offer pricing in over 80 different currencies with a consistent, reliable framework for cross-border transactions. This increased pricing transparency further improved the checkout experience for international consumers.

Tax Compliance Management

Reach’s expertise in tax compliance allowed Everlane to navigate the complexities of filing taxes across multiple jurisdictions, especially in Europe and Australia. Reach’s MoR solution streamlined these processes, reducing compliance risks without straining Everlane’s internal resources.
