Yes, provided you can receive money into a US bank account. Melon moves money over the US ACH network, so a US account is the requirement — not a US address or a US company.

What you need

  • A US bank account that accepts ACH transfers.

  • Completed KYC, including a tax identification number.

  • Correct US tax forms, which Melon collects during verification.

Getting a US account

Agencies without a US bank commonly use a service that provides US account details — Wise is the most widely used. It gives you a US routing and account number that ACH can reach, while the balance remains yours to convert and withdraw locally.

The setup is the same one Canadian creators use. See Can Canadian creators use Melon?.

Your creators

Creators are covered by their own arrangements, not yours. A US creator connects a US bank normally. A creator elsewhere needs US account details the same way you do, or can pay by card from a payment link, which works internationally.

Currency

Melon operates in US dollars. Charges, balances and payouts are all USD. Any conversion happens at your bank or your account provider, and Melon adds nothing to it.

Tax

Melon issues US tax forms where required. It does not handle filings in your own country — that stays your responsibility.
