• In-person transactions: you don't need to have a website to be eligible for these payment methods once you set up your Merchant account
• Online transactions: you need to have an online presence, but you don't need to have a functional ecommerce website for this. You can have a regular website, Facebook page, LinkedIn profile, Instagram profile, Google Maps listing, etc.
• API and Plugin integration: you need to have a fully functional website and might need to provide proof of ownership

If proof of an online presence is requested, it needs to present your single distinct nature of business and business name.

A nature of business is a short summary of the kind of service you provide as a business. Businesses with multiple business lines, like a retail seller that also provides legal advice, are ineligible for a Merchant account.
