Is it possible to activate Shopify payments without a SSN, and used a LLC instead?
H, @Oxsa03.
Thank you for reaching out!
It will depend on what country you are located in, if you are in the United States then yes we will need your SSN to sign up for Shopify Payments.
Please let me know if you have any further questions! I would love to learn more about your business. What type of products do you sell?
Talk soon,
