Some biz cards ask for a PG while others don't. Other apps will ask for your DnB info, biz checking acct info, trade references and your biz FEIN, if not using your SSN. You don't need to be incorporated or even LLC; you can use your SSN if you are a sole-proprietor. I have a biz I file on Sched. C and received cards in the past like Advanta biz and Discover biz (years ago) and most recently Dell. All Dell asked for, for example, was the FEIN, address, and they needed to verify my phone, set up in my biz name. You can request a FEIN from the IRS. Just tell them you anticipate hiring people down the road and they'll hook you up over the phone.
