Employer Identification Number (EIN)

An EIN is required for every vendor or partner of Yuzu. We use it to verify your business and set up a secure account for your health plan funds. This is a tax and compliance requirement. Without a valid EIN on file, we cannot process payments to your organization.

An EIN is a 9-digit number assigned by the IRS to identify your business; it is not the same as a Social Security Number (SSN). If you are a sole proprietor and have been using your SSN for tax purposes, you may need to apply for an EIN through the IRS before completing this step.

W-9 Submission

In addition to entering your EIN in the portal, Yuzu requires a completed IRS Form W-9 from all vendors we pay via ACH. For details on what the W-9 captures and why we collect it, see our guide on W-9 & 1099 Reporting.
