Taxes
Payments made to US hosts are subject to reporting criteria for IRS Form 1099-K. Learn more about Form 1099-K here. We will determine if a 1099-K is required for each host based on current IRS rules and contact hosts who meet requirements for any missing tax information. Your response to any inquiries can ensure timely filing and help to avoid any penalties.
Reportable earnings are based on the date and number of payouts - not the date or number of reservations. For example, reportable earnings for 2025 include payouts made from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025.
To find your payouts history, click here. On web, click your profile photo > My earnings > Payouts history. On mobile, click settings > My earnings > Payouts history. If any of your earnings information is inaccurate, please contact us.
Note: For tax year 2025, although filing requirements vary greatly by state and you should consult a tax professional for tax advice, the federal threshold is 200 payouts; since hosts typically only receive 12 payouts per year under normal circumstances, it's unlikely you'll receive a 1099-K from us.
For any further questions on taxes, we recommend consulting a tax professional.
