Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Santa Barbara, California, FastSpring has grown into a trusted partner for companies around the world looking to simplify online sales and expand into international markets.
At its core, FastSpring operates as a full-service e-commerce solution and merchant of record, meaning it handles all crucial aspects of online selling on behalf of its clients. This includes global payment processing, subscription management, tax compliance, VAT collection and remittance, fraud prevention, chargeback handling, and regulatory compliance.

FastSpring’s branded checkout tools, recurring billing capabilities, and analytics dashboards help businesses improve conversion rates and grow revenue through upsells, cross-sells, and flexible pricing options.
