Can I use mt EIN number instead of my SSN

I'm new in setting up my account. Can I use my existing EIN number in lieu of my SSN?

Hello @Cryptidmaker ! Welcome to the Square community!

If you're planning on using Square for your business that your EIN is linked to, I definitely recommend using it. This way come tax time you're not jumping through hoops trying to separate your business dealings from your personal stuff.

Thank you, Ryan. My own dig into things has found that I can change the business name without getting a new EIN as long as I don't change the business or the business entity. Since I'll be conducting the same business but only under a different name then all should go smoothly. Thanks again for your answer.

Best, CRYPTIDMAKER
