QuickBooks Payments like other payment processing services adheres to strict identity verification and anti-money laundering laws set by governing bodies like the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). This is why a Social Security Number (SSN) is required for compliance standards, Tera.

 

You can utilize a third-party application other than QuickBooks Payments for online payments. QuickBooks Online (QBO) provides several applications on the list that you can use and integrate.

 

You can go to the Apps menu and select Find apps. Search for an app or type in a keyword. I've added a screenshot below for your visual reference:

If you are B2B, you can have EIN or ITIN to use a 3rd party payment processor and sync it with QBO.
