Hi @gastondelg & @RBDRBT ,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community. I’d be happy to provide some guidance on setting up Shopify Payments, to ensure this gets resolved.

When it comes to setting up Shopify payments, merchants like yourself are required to provide their SSN/ITIN even if they have an EIN for their business. To learn more about this, you can check out our Shopify Payments Terms of Service.

To confirm, do you currently have physical operations (i.e an office) within the United States? If not, you will want to select from one of our third-party payment providers as an alternative! To learn more, you can check out this Guide.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Hello @gastondelg , I m in the same situation as you and @RBDRBT , did you guys find any alternative ?
This is really frustrating …
@Blair and stripe is not available as a third party gateway … Any solution ?

If you have a Stripe account, there is a solution through Stripe to accept payments with many payment methods, check this article >> https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/boost-your-us-shopify-sales-accept-various-payment-methods-uol5f
