Effective from the 2023 tax year, the IRS requires all payment card companies and third-party networks to report all 1099-K payments made in a tax year with a minimum reportable gross total of $600.
Form 1099-K helps the IRS understand the income a payee generates through retail sales transactions made online or via payment cards.
When the third-party entities send a copy of Form 1099-K to the IRS, the form reports the gross amount of the transactions occurring in a tax year, notifying the IRS about the income generated by the payee through 1099-K payments.
Form 1099-K is used for reporting the gross total of third-party network payments and payment card transactions amounting to $600 or higher. It helps the IRS understand if the payee has reported all the income as received from the 1099-K payments.
Each time a retailer accepts online payments or payments made via credit cards, a third-party enables the transaction and records the payments made to the retailer.
In this context, the payer (third-party network or payment card entity) must issue Form 1099-K to the payee reporting all payments made to the participating payee in a tax year. Form 1099-K is usually sent to the payee before the IRS-recipient deadline, 31 January.
Third-party payment networks, such as PayPal, Venmo, Google Pay, and Amazon Pay are required to issue a copy of the Form 1099-K to the participating payees and file the approved return with the IRS.
Similarly, payment card companies, such as MasterCard, VISA, Jupiter, and RuPay are required to issue a copy of Form 1099-K to the payee and the IRS, respectively.
A participating payee or a retail seller is someone who agrees to receive payments from the third-party network or payments card entity each time a sale has been enabled through their network framework.
The payee receives a Form 1099-K at the end of the year (around January before the 1099-K recipient deadline) from the payer. The 1099-K return reports third-party network and payment card transactions with a gross total of $600 or more.
Prior to the 2023 tax year, the IRS required the third-party network entities and payment card entities to report with Form 1099-K only if:
For returns submitted after the 2022 calendar year, the IRS requires the filers to adapt to the new updates and report per the prescribed changes.
Individuals, companies, corporations, partnerships, LLCs, and more that earn income through payment cards and third-party networks online must receive a Form 1099-K from their payers starting from the 2022 calendar year.
Form 1099-K is a summary of all transactions that took place in a year and the gross total earned by the payee in a tax year.
Each time a retailer earns through various online streams, the payer must record and report such transactions in the 1099-K return and send it to the payee at the end of the year.
It is important not to confuse Form 1099-K with Form 1099-B. While Form 1099-K is only a summary of the gross total payments made to the payee, Form 1099-K is a comprehensive report of all 1099-K transactions that took place in a year, providing specific details for each transaction.
Here’s how to understand the differences between the reporting requirements for various 1099 forms.
