Does the company have to be registered to pay taxes, have a minimum amount of employees, etc. to qualify? Also, is it okay to apply in your own name, or do you have to apply with a business name?
I just used the name of a pet project as my business. No, you don't need to show business registration. It's still a personal credit card account under the same person's name.
