If you have a business (e.g. LLC, Corporation) and prefer to receive your commission and/or revenue share payments to your business account, you must update your tax information and banking/payment information in reZEN.
Things to know:
- You may only receive payment to a business account if it's authorized in your state. Not Sure? Ask your Broker.
- You must have a valid EIN.
- You must update your tax information and banking/payment information to reflect your business.
Step-by-Step Instructions (Desktop):
Step 1: Click My Dashboard on the left side of reZEN. Then, click the Overview tab.
Step 2: Scroll down to the Business Entity Tax IDs section. Click + Add (or Edit). A module will open to enter your business entity name and employer identification number (EIN).
- You must have a valid EIN and enter your EIN exactly as it appears on your government-issued statement. This will be used to report your income to the IRS.
- You must have a valid social security number (SSN) on file. Confirm your SSN is correct. If you need to make a change, click the pencil icon to edit your SSN.
Step 3: Now, go to My Dashboard and click the Payment Settings tab. On the payment settings tab, click Start Over to enter your business information.
Step 4: Click Let's Start to go through the tax and payment information.
Step 5: Enter your contact information - this can be for you as an individual.
- Enter your legal address (where you reside)
- If you have a separate mailing address, uncheck the box for "my mailing address is the same as my contact address" and enter your mailing address. We typically send electronic payment, but if we ever need to mail a check, we will use this address.
Step 6: Add your bank information for your business. Please double check this information to avoid delays.
- If you want to send commission payments and revenue share payments to separate accounts, adjust the Purpose. Learn more: How do I add a second bank account to my profile?
