Thanks for visiting the Community, @adonimportsusa. You can set up QuickBooks Payment even without an SSN as it is optional. 

 

Then, connect your payment account to QuickBooks OnlineHere's how: 

 

  1. Log in to QuickBooks Online as an admin.
  2. In the Settings menu, select Account and Settings.
  3. Select the Payments tab. In the Existing account section, select Connect or Link Merchant Service.
  4. Select the QuickBooks Payment account you want to connect. Then click Connect.
  5. Review the account info and make sure it's accurate, then click Connect.

 

Once done, sign out and log in again to your QuickBooks Online.

 

For future reference, visit the official IRS website should you need to get the Employer ID Numbers (EIN) or Social Security Number (SSN). 

 

Also, read through these help articles:

 

 

I'm always around if you have more questions about the QuickBooks Payment, @adonimportsusa. Have a great day.

Hi, 

I signed up to GoPayment following your instructions, however, the SSN is an obligatory requirement. (see screenshot attached). What can I do in order to accept online payment with credit card without SNN?

Thanks

Welcome to the thread, @Purruno.

 

Allow me to clarify things out for you about signing up GoPayment and how QuickBooks Payments works. 

 

With the mandate of IRS, it’s important to have a Taxpayer Identification Number or Social Security Number on file. However, since you don't have SSN, I recommend contacting our Merchant Services Team. They can guide and provide options on how to handle the specific situation you have.

 

See this article for the contact details: Contact Payments Support.

I have the same problem except it’s for Quickbooks Payments and Go Payment. Just spent two hours on the phone and was hung up on 3 times by Quickbooks employees who don’t know what an ITIN is.
