We actually use Stripe for our own invoicing right now. We may be based in Toronto, but we're with Silicon Valley Bank. I'm in SF right now and was just visiting the Stripe office this morning. Interesting things to come, I promise :)
You can get a US EIN as an international business, just go to the site Stripe points you to and there are instructions for non-US businesses. As for the SSN, we were able to talk to the guys at stripe and get our account active without this.

The website is beautiful - in regards to Objection Two, have you had a look at Stripe?

I think this would work really well with your product. I'm glad you got your funding, your product looks fantastic.

How did you guys get a US tax number? Or are you using stripe as a personal account (SSN only)?

Stripe only works with businesses in the US (for now at least). They are based in Toronto, Canada.
The website was the first thing I noticed as well.. stunning
Totally second the Stripe suggestion - it is fantastic.
