Shopify is suddenly saying that my registered business name doesn't match my TIN so guess who gets to make a phone call to the IRS tomorrow morning 🫠🫠ðŸ«

Are there advantages to Big Cartel other than it not being Shopify? I've been waffling for a year over whether I should spend time migrating elsewhere or not. Shopify is REALLY GOOD for, like, a limited subset of things. And then really annoying for everything else.
It's also slightly cheaper per month. But other than that, no.
BC lacks calculated shipping and I can't import the orders into pirate ship to generate labels. Which is a huge pain when you've got 10+ orders to ship (I think they do import into Shippo now).
They also lack the newsletter function which is important to me because I don't want to deal with any other newsletter service anymore, and you can't password protect your store either.
But I think BC is great for folks starting out or if you don't have super specific needs that Shopify has!
This is exactly the thing that happened to me that made me finally leave Shopify. It was a problem on their end and I had to attempt to retype it in like 50x before it actually took.
omg that's so frustrating!!! I had a feeling it was a "them" problem given that paypal sent me a 1099-k with NO issue whatsoever.
I guess I'll have to keep typing it in and brute force it until it finally takes.
All these years I've used Shopify it's never done this.
And I got a 1099-k from paypal with the same registered name and TIN I use and they didn't have any issue, so idk what shopify's problem is all of a sudden. 🤷🤷🤷
LOL thank you!! Shouldn't be too much trouble (knock wood!!!!) and it looks like if the information actually IS accurate, I just need to contact this specific Shopify service line and they'll sort it out!! 🤞🤞
