EIN Discovery: Accurate EIN & Name Lookups

Having precise and accurate data is crucial in the competitive business environment. Our EIN Discovery feature goes beyond traditional matching systems by not only verifying information but also actively retrieving the correct Employer Identification Number (EIN) using a company name—or the company name when only the EIN is provided. This ensures that you always work with the most accurate data, reducing errors and safeguarding your business from engaging with incorrect or fraudulent entities.

What is EIN Discovery?

EIN Discovery is an advanced data validation tool that:

  • Retrieves the correct EIN by company name: Quickly find the official EIN when your initial data is incomplete or contains errors.
  • Retrieves the company name by EIN: Ensure the legal name associated with an EIN is accurate.
  • Goes beyond a simple pass/fail match: Instead of just confirming whether data is correct, it actively corrects mismatches and fills in missing details.

Why EIN Discovery is Better Than Traditional Matching

Traditional IRS TIN matching systems only provide a basic pass/fail result without any additional context. This means if there’s a typo or error in the data, you’re left with a "fail" without any guidance on how to correct it. Or even worse, a "pass" with partially correct company name. Our EIN Discovery feature offers several key advantages:

  • Corrects Data Inaccuracies: If your records contain a misspelled company name or an incorrect EIN, our system finds the accurate match.
  • Reduces Risk: Avoid the pitfalls of engaging with incorrect data which can lead to compliance issues or inadvertently doing business with a fraudulent entity.
  • Saves Time: By automatically retrieving the correct data, you eliminate the need for manual research and correction.
  • Improves Data Integrity: Ensure that your records are always up-to-date and reliable, enhancing your overall compliance and operational efficiency.
