Pricing Comparison
Now that we’ve reviewed the features, let’s look at what Statrys and Sleek charge for their incorporation services.
| Feature | Statrys | Sleek |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | HKD 8,600 | Starter: HKD 5,299 Grow: HKD 8,799 Success: HKD 14,079 |
| Additional Shareholders | 5 included HKD 1,000/extra |
1 included ~HKD 200–600/extra |
Statrys offers one package at HKD 8,600, covering all essentials for incorporation, company secretary, registered address, filings, and up to five shareholders, with no need to configure or add services separately.
Sleek, on the other hand, uses a tiered pricing model. Its Starter plan covers the basics, Grow includes bookkeeping, and Success adds audit and tax filing services. Some essential services, like a registered address or support for multiple shareholders, may require additional fees depending on the plan selected.
Sleek’s setup process also includes a range of optional add-ons, such as a registered address, a digital mailroom, or additional shareholders. For new founders unfamiliar with Hong Kong’s incorporation requirements, it may take more time to review and understand which services are essential versus optional. This added step could lead to delays in completing the registration process or uncertainty about what’s truly required.
Below is an example of Sleek’s online registration process, where users select from various packages and add-ons before completing their application.
Our verdict
Statrys offers a clear, upfront price that includes all legal essentials from the start, no add-ons, no surprises. This simplicity may be especially helpful for first-time users who want a faster setup experience without worrying about what to include. |
