If you receive a message indicating your information is formatted incorrectly, most likely your password is the issue. Your password should be at least 8 characters in length and have a number, an uppercase letter, and a special character. If after checking your password, you still get formatting errors, check these elements:

• Business name: Must not exceed 60 characters.
• Employer ID number (EIN): This is a 9-digit tax identification number that the IRS assigns to businesses in this format: XX-XXXXXXX. Please enter this number without the dash or spaces.
• Social Security Number: This is a 9-digit number that U.S. government assigns to individuals and is used for tax reporting. It typically has this format: XXX-XX-XXXX, but on the Rakuten Advertising sign-up page you should enter it without dashes or spaces.
• Address: Your address can contain up 60 characters on each line, characters that include letters, numbers, symbols, and spaces.
• Site description: The description of your website can include up to 255 characters and spaces.
• Payment Threshold: This field can only include whole numbers, no currency symbols or decimal points.
