Hi there, I have been looking for a global payment method that I could integrate to my store that would not require a registered business name. I’m just starting and i plan to start small and grow with time.

I am located in serbia so I cant use shopify payments, revolut, stripe…

I have tried more than 10 different payment methods but I mostly end up needing to register a business to integrate it into Shopify.

Does anyone have a solution?
