How to Change the EIN

The Employer Identification Number (EIN) is a unique nine-digit number assigned by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to businesses working in the U.S. It's used to identify taxpayers who are required to file various business tax returns.

To change the EIN on a Vagaro Merchant Account, you first have to submit a new merchant application with the correct EIN. Once the account is approved, send a request to support@vagaro.com to close the previous account.

6. After entering the Personal and Bank Information, click Submit Application. 

7. Once the application is approved, send a request to support@vagaro.com to remove the previous merchant account. You'll receive this notification when the account is approved.
