Here is some help.
Once you click the link, click update Taxpayer Information. A new window will pop up for you to enter your taxpayer information. Inside that box in the upper right hand corner is a field to change/add you SSN or EIN.
This does NOT change your EIN on other aspects, such as payroll, for your account. Please contact Square to make necessary changes.

Hey @GS48010 - Yup, an Employer Identification Number (EIN) is a federal tax identification number used to identify a business entity. For more information on how to confirm your EIN is linked to your account, check out our article on 1099-K Tax Reporting.

I am trying to set Square up to accept school payments. It will obviously be non profit. How can I do this by entering Tax ID number instead of social security number

This reply was created from merging an existing thread: Change Social Security to Business Tax ID
I initally signed up using the last 4 digits of my social secuirty number, but I want to change it out with my business tax id number, how do I do this or does it even matter at this point? I'd rather not have my personal SS number attached to the square account and have the business id number instead.

I set up a square account for a church organization that is non profit. I didn't have the EIN number at the time. How do I add it now? I tried tax forms form but seems disabled. Any guidance would be helpful.

Hi @123159 You can change the taxpayer ID on file by going to Account & Settings -> Tax Forms. However, be aware that once you change this, all sales and such will be changed to report to the IRS, etc, under that non-profit EIN.

I had to sign up with the last 4 digits of my SSN. I have since linked payments to my company checking account but I cannot find a place in which to give the EIN number. I do not want transactions being attributed to me personally. Where can I go for help with this?
