Hi @Masoy ,
Thank you for reaching out to the Community! I’m happy to provide some guidance in locating a payment provider that doesn’t require a business license, to get this resolved. To provide some context, there are over 100 supported third-party payment providers that you can select from in order to accept credit cards for your online shop. I recommend checking out our Third-Party Payment Providers documentation for more information on this.
As you’re located in Greece, we have curated a list of available payment providers you can browse through to determine if a business license is required. I would recommend going through this list and contacting the payment provider directly to gain clarification on whether this document is required in order to begin accepting payments. They would be able to share additional information as needed.
Please let me know if you have any other concerns!
Just started out and had the same question (also from greece). I was wondering if you found a solution, would be glad to talk to you. Είναι σπάνιο να δω Έλληνα που να ασχολείται με το αντικείμενο.
