Sponsors can query the real names from Paxum and Payoneer?

You'd also need a real physical address to put on the invoice too though.

"Know your customer" may be not enforced on regular companies. However if you get a tax audit, and they discover that you have invoices with fake names and/or fake addresses (which some affiliates do use in my experience), you can get in a lot of trouble.

Don't get me wrong though. I'm all for the biz stepping up and following the business practices that are normal in every other segment - including invoicing.
