Marketplace tax reports,
platform by platform.

Exactly where to download your 1099-K and the year-end reports we need for your return — for every platform our sellers use.

The 1099-K rules right now

Under current law the federal threshold is $20,000 in gross payments and more than 200 transactions — but several states require forms at much lower amounts, so you may receive one anyway. And the rule that actually matters: your sales are taxable whether or not a form arrives. The 1099-K reports gross — before fees, refunds, and shipping — which is why reconciliation, not copying the box, is the job.

Marketplaces & processors

Where each platform keeps your forms

Amazon

Tax form: 1099-K in Seller Central → Reports → Tax Document Library.

Also pull: A full-year Date Range Report (Summary) for sales, fees, and refunds; the Inventory Ledger for your December 31 FBA inventory count. Amazon collects and remits marketplace sales tax as a facilitator.

Walmart Marketplace

Tax form: The 1099-K comes from your payment processor, not Seller Center — Payoneer account, Hyperwallet Pay Portal (Resources → Tax Documents), or Marketplace Wallet. Watch for the January email.

Also pull: Settlement and payment reports from Seller Center → Payments, period by period — Walmart itself does not produce a yearly sales report.

eBay

Tax form: 1099-K and monthly statements in Seller Hub → Payments → Taxes.

Also pull: The full-year Transaction report (CSV) — it carries the fees, shipping labels, and refunds the 1099-K leaves out.

TikTok Shop

Tax form: 1099-K in Seller Center → Finances → Taxes; generate the 1099-K detailed report there.

Also pull: The Orders export and settlement statements. TikTok's 1099-K uses buyer-payment timing and gross before fees — expect a gap against your payouts; that gap is normal and reconcilable.

Mercari

Tax form: 1099-K under Settings → Tax Center in the app or on the web.

Also pull: Your full-year sales report CSV for fees, shipping, and refunds.

Etsy

Tax form: 1099-K in Shop Manager → Finances → Legal & tax information.

Also pull: The Payment account CSVs and order export for the year — fees and Etsy-collected sales tax live there.

Shopify — your own checkout

Tax form: Shopify Payments 1099-K under Finances → Documents (or Settings → Payments). It covers Shopify Payments only — PayPal or other gateways on your store issue their own forms.

Also pull: The Finances summary and Payouts export, plus your sales tax report. Facilitator laws don't shield your own site — nexus on direct sales is yours; we review it.

PayPal · Stripe · Square

Tax form: Each processor issues its own 1099-K from its dashboard (tax documents section).

Also pull: If you take payments through more than one, we need every 1099-K — the IRS receives them all and matches your return against the total.

COGS & inventory software

The reports behind your cost of goods

InventoryLab

Tax form: Not a 1099-K issuer — it's your COGS engine.

Also pull: Year-end Inventory Valuation (December 31), the COGS / P&L exports, and accounting exports for the books.

Sellerboard

Tax form: Not a 1099-K issuer — analytics and profitability.

Also pull: Monthly P&L, COGS, the inventory value report, and expense exports.

Why we reconcile before we file

1099-K gross ≠ your deposits ≠ your taxable income. Fees, refunds, shipping, platform-collected sales tax, and order-vs-payout timing all sit between those numbers. We tie every 1099-K to its platform report and to the books — the IRS matching letters (CP2000) come from skipping that step.

Sales tax — two different worlds

On marketplaces, facilitator laws make the platform collect and remit sales tax in essentially every state. On your own site (Shopify and similar), that shield doesn't exist — economic nexus rules by state decide where you must register. We review nexus with your numbers — and the 50-state sales tax & reseller permit reference has every state's rate, registration link, and due date.

What to send us, per platform

  • Every 1099-K PDF — from every marketplace and every payment processor
  • The full-year sales summary and fee detail for each platform
  • Refund and return totals

Selling on three platforms and guessing at tax time?
