Small business credit card without ssnYes. In fact, it is reccommended you establish your business credit separate from your personal credit. Get a EIN number from the IRS.

Any company that does is not offering commercial credit but personal credit labeled as "Small Business".PS: Only the FEDERAL government can legally ask for your social security number.

That way, in their greed, the companies will establish a credit file for the tracking number and you can keep your real social security number secret.Norman Edwardsblog.edvest1.com
