How do I change my personal Stripe account to a business Stripe account

This change needs to be done directly with Stripe, but here are some steps to follow before you reach out:

1. First you will need to obtain an EIN number (Employer Identification Number) from the IRS. You can apply online here:

2. Next, reach out to your financial institution to clarify if you need a business account. In Stripe the bank account holder name will need to match the business legal entity name on the Stripe account in order to be used.

3. Lastly you can contact Stripe Support with this information at support@stripe.com
