Accepting credit cards, warehouses, and shipping and fulfilling orders
I'm running a small side hustle of mine with Shopify but I don't have a business license, Are there any payment providers that don't require a business license?
There are some payment providers that don't require a business license for accepting payments. Here are a few options you could consider:
PayPal: PayPal is a popular payment gateway that allows individuals to create an account without a business license.
Stripe: Stripe is another widely used payment provider that doesn't require a business license to accept payments.
Square: Square is a payment provider that offers both online and in-person payment processing, and they don't require a business license to sign up.
2Checkout: 2Checkout is a global payment provider that allows individuals to create an account without a business license.
It's important to note that while some payment providers may not require a business license to sign up, you may still need to comply with other regulations or requirements depending on your location and the type of products or services you're selling. It's always a good idea to do your research and consult with a legal professional if you have any concerns.
Hello! Do you know any payment providers that don't require the business to be registered in Switzerland?
Hi @andreeabsn,
Thank you for reaching out to the Community. I'm happy to provide some assistance with this request, to ensure it gets resolved.
To share some insight, Shopify has integrated with over 100 different third-party payment providers to allow you to continue accepting credit cards online. Due to this, I recommend checking out our list of all available payment providers within Switzerland. We currently offer over 20 different third-party payment providers within this country and encourage you to review this list in order to select a provider that best fits your shops needs.
If you haven't done so already, I'd encourage you to connect with the payment providers directly for clarification on whether a business registration is required.
To learn more about how you can connect a payment gateway to your shop, you can check our Third-Party Payment Providers documentation as it touches on this further.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
