What is a merchant account and why do I need it to receive the payment?

I am an individual and doing some freelancing.
I started to use Payoneer since last month.
I've received two invoices paid by the same clients last month.
I sent another invoice today for the same client and he paid.
But I received an email and it said "Information Required to Receive a Payment".
When I click on the link from email it goes to "Merchant Application Form"
What is my current account type and what is a "Merchant Account" ? :/
As I'm very early stage and just a single person I do not have a website but website field is mandatory on that "Merchant Application Form"
How starters like us can afford that or receive payments without a website? :(
Since I was able to receive payment for my last two invoices from the same client by last month, why do you require this step suddenly? :#
If it is necessary how can I fill up that form and submit when I do not have a website? :/
How long will it take to credit my money to my Payoneer account after I submit this form? :o
and I am working for a UK company too.
I've received their 1st payment on the same day the salary paid on last month.
They pay every 8th of a month.
Will it take some extra time or need to process any other steps like this again when they pay the next salary (08th of Oct 2016) ??? :'(
