If you are a corporation, you can apply for a merchant account without a social. The problem with doing this is that there is no guarantee that you will be accepted. Your merchant account provider will need copies of your financial statements dating back 2 years and other information. Seems like a lot of work for 9 digits. The reason a social is the standard when opening a merchant account is because your merchant account is essentially a bank account. You need your social when you open a business bank account to protect the bank against fraud. It works the same with merchant accounts.
