Today, Stellar Formation officially joins Fiverr’s new platform: Fiverr Elevate, a suite of services to assist the platform’s millions of freelancers in founding, running and growing their businesses.

Stellar Formation is the only platform to set up a company included in Elevate.

To understand how important this partnership is to us, it’s worth remembering why we started Stellar Formation in the first place.

As entrepreneurs ourselves, we knew how hard and confusing it could be to set up a company. Just Google it — there are hundreds of services out there, many of them overpriced and some of them scams. Plus, these services don’t do enough to address the questions and concerns entrepreneurs have when founding a company.

We wanted all entrepreneurs to have access to a helpful, reasonably priced, and simple solution to set up their own ventures. To address this issue, we got together in 2016 and founded Stellar Formation: a straightforward service for entrepreneurs to create the legal entity of their company, a service by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs. (We’ve written more about this on the Stellar Formation Manifesto.)

Since then, we’ve been lucky to help entrepreneurs around the world set up their companies — from startups to photographers, ad agencies to professional chefs, e-commerce entrepreneurs to venture capital funds (and one badminton company along the way).

Our mission is particularly important for one of the fastest growing categories in the US job market: freelancers. Freelancers don’t always set up a legal entity and don’t always know why they should. We believe this is a big problem and we want to solve it. For this, we couldn’t have dreamed of a better partner than Fiverr.

“We started Stellar Formation to make the hard, legal process of forming your company easy, educational and fast,” explains Spencer Wolff, a Stellar Formation founding partner and attorney. “Freelancers don’t always have the right tools to set up a company or even know why they should set it up in the first place.”

Similarly, as the largest marketplace for freelance services, Fiverr seeks to empower entrepreneurs to focus on growth and create a successful business at affordable costs. After all, their services start at just $5 per job (a feature from which the platform took its name).

This partnership with Fiverr is a natural fit to us. Now, as the only platform to set up a company included in Elevate, we are excited to extend our services and educational resources to the millions of freelancers in Fiverr’s community.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Fiverr to offer their millions of freelancers around the world not only a simple and reliable way to set up a company in the US, but also the educational resources to help them understand the advantages of doing so,” said Wolff.

Now, as the only platform to set up a company included in Elevate, we are excited to extend our services and educational resources to the millions of freelancers in Fiverr’s community.

We can’t wait to see what Fiverr entrepreneurs create with our service.
