I dont know about 6.x but in older versions if you access the payment provider, they have a public method called GetPaymentAccount(paymentMethod) that will give you an object that contains this info.

This is some code from a custom payment provider (Goyada) I have written, but I can see the same method available as public static in Klarna addon for example (although an older version):

var paymentAccount = myProvider.GetPaymentAccount(orderRowInfo[1]);  
var merchantId = paymentAccount.MerchantId

and you should be able to access the provider from order payment info… or paymentmethod.provider etc etc… it should be available somewhere 😉
