How Does WP1099 Work?

Download the WP1099 plugin, and install it on your self-hosted WordPress site.
The plugin will automatically list all of your vendors and affiliates from any of the compatible plugins that you have on your site who have met the minimum threshold for a 1099-MISC form. This lets you start to make sure that you have all of the vendor’s information before the end of the year. The sooner you get this information, the easier it is to verify and request corrected information if necessary.
At the end of the year, click the Export button for each of the reports. The plugin will prompt you to download the CSV file it generates.
- If there were any one-off manual payments made during the year you will have an opportunity to add those payments to the spreadsheet before filing the 1099 forms.
- Add your vendor’s information from their W9 to the CSV export file. Note we do not provide the ability to store this information on your website as it contains sensitive information like social security numbers.
Send the CSV file to your CPA, or use any number of third-party 1099 filing services to file the 1099 forms for you.
- You will also need to make sure that your vendors or affiliates get their copies either electronically, or by regular mail.

How Does WP1099 Help Me?

WP1099 was created to fill a need in the WordPress Affiliate and Marketplace plugin space. Many site owners are unaware of the complicated IRS tax requirements, or if they are aware of them they don't have the time to make sure they are compliant. When a site owner doesn't know that they need to file certain forms to remain compliant they could face stiff penalties from the IRS and various state revenue departments.

WP1099 Helps Site Owners By:

Aggregating Payouts: Most affiliate and marketplace plugins show you the individual payouts made to each user. None of them really do a good job at aggregating the data in a way that is useful for tax reporting purposes. Our plugin will automatically add up all of the payouts during the year.
Filing the Forms Correctly: At the end of the year, our plugin looks at all the data we have for each of your affiliates or vendors to determine what amounts need to go in each box on the 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC. We export this information to a CSV file for you, which gives you the opportunity to review the information that has been exported to see if anything is missing. For example, you may have made payments to a vendor offline that were not captured in the connected plugins. Once everything looks good, you can submit the CSV file to your CPA or any number of third-party 1099 filing services.

What Forms Does WP1099 Handle?

The only forms we report on are the IRS forms 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC. This is sufficient in the majority of cases for our users. Most states participate in what is known as the Combined Federal State Program, where your 1099 filings to the IRS are automatically forwarded to the appropriate state tax department(s).

However, there are some states that require a separate filing that we do not specifically handle. Certain 1099 filing services like tax1099.com will provide you an option to file state returns that do not participate in the Combined Federal State Program.

What Does WP1099 Not Do?

WP1099 does not file the 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC forms for you. Our plugin provides an export file with the information you need from the affiliate or multivendor marketplace plugins on your site. You will use the export files to file the 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC forms.

Why don't we file those for you?

For our plugin to do that, we would have to collect and store sensitive personal information on your website, like social security numbers. In our research, this would put your site in violation of the terms and conditions of the vast majority of the most popular web hosts. To avoid getting your site shut down for a violation like that, we decided it's best to let you handle that type of information separate from your website. Storing sensitive data off of your website is a more secure way to handle sensitive information.

You will be responsible for collecting a W9 from each vendor or affiliate that you will be issuing a 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC form. Fortunately, collecting this information is relatively easy. Send your vendors a copy of the W9 form and ask them to fill it out for you. Once you have it on file, you shouldn't need to ask for it again unless their information changes in the future. A gentle reminder email during the year might be a good way to ensure their information is up to date.
