Getting a UK LTD for a non european resident to apply to Stripe. Good idea?

Hi, iam from an emerging country that is not supported by Stripe so Iam thinking of getting a UK LTD. Iam applying to stripe because I have a legit online business and they seem to be reputable and widely known as well as good prices.

I was reading on launchese.com, they seem to sell you the UK LTD and get you setup with a Stripe UK business account for $500 ... but then I read in here that Stripe due to a card network requirement will not open a merchant account for a company that is not represented in the country of incorporation. Is this right? I wonder then, why would stripe in the US be selling the atlas servce to non US residents to open accounts in Stripe US then?
