Sounds like a great concept even for a U.S. entrepreneur.
If you are someone new to the business world, figuring out how to take step 1 is a very scary process. At least having a default set of options pre-selected for you sounds like a great starting point. And of course, Stripe could also be in the business of connecting potential entrepreneurs to pre-vetted legal and accounting services.
And Stripe's incentives are perfectly aligned, more businesses using their payment services. Anything putting these businesses into legal or accounting jeopardy is also bad for Stripe.
All in all, this seems like an obvious-in-retrospect, brilliant idea.
