Ssn versus TIN/ EIN

[NB2020]

Why does PayPal not allowed me to give my tax ID? I usually use my tax ID for business purposes; however Paypal is not allowing this. Is there a way around this? I'm trying to build my business identity and credit ( especially since my own suck). And if I'm going to be stuck paying taxes because of a 1099-k then I would at least like it to go under my tax ID.

You can add your SSN as account owner and the EIN/ITIN.

Did you go to Account Settings (gear icon) > Account owner information > Tax ID number
