19 and don't have a bank account? It's time to get one. Once you have a bank account you can apply for a merchant account but realize that most of the merchant providers will run a credit check on applicants. Since you don't yet have a bank account I am going to guess that you don't have any credit either. Also keep in mind that a merchant account is going to cost at least $20 ~ $30 per month regardless of weather or not you have made any sales. Perhaps try paypal for a while.

Domain reselling plans are available from a variety of places. You can usually find people selling or giving away enom accounts here or you could go with someone like wild west which is part of godaddy.

If you are 19 and don't have a bank account you should really get one

Also while not totally required you would be better off using a Business Bank Account rather than a personal account.

Yes, you should get a bank account, probably business would be best, as well as a company checking account. This will make purchasing and recording your purchases a lot easier.

I'm had a bank account since I was born... get a bank account for yourself - it shouldn't cost anything. Also, get a corporate bank account as mentioned before...

I had a bank account since I was about 5, in most countries there is no age limit on bank accounts.

You should get a bank account ASAP... also do lots of research, you may want to look into accepting credit card payments through a company like 2CO.

What do you do with all your money? Just have it stuffed under your bed or something?

You have missed out on a lot of interest and other bonuses over the last 19 years of your life. Get something set up ASAP.
