Exporting transaction history, understanding your payouts, and tax forms for sellers
If you sell cards on Misprint, you may need to report your earnings at tax time. This guide explains how to export your transaction history as a CSV, how to read gross sales versus your net payout, and when we issue tax forms such as 1099s. It is written for sellers reporting their own income. If you are a buyer looking for information on the sales tax charged at checkout, see our sales tax help page instead.
You can download a complete record of your sales directly from your seller account. Sign in, open your seller dashboard, and look for the Tax Reporting topic in the Seller Help center. From there you can export your transaction history as a CSV file that opens in any spreadsheet program (such as Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers) or imports into most accounting and tax software.
We recommend exporting your records at the end of each tax year, and keeping a copy for your files even after you have filed. If you are new to selling, our guide to selling on Misprint walks through how orders, shipping, and payouts work.
The CSV is designed to give you everything you need to reconcile your Misprint activity. In general, each row represents a transaction and includes fields such as:
Exact column names and available fields may change over time as we improve the export. Always refer to the header row in your downloaded file for the definitive list.
Two numbers matter most when you report your income, and they are not the same:
Gross sales is the total sale price of the cards you sold, before anything is subtracted. This is the figure that typically appears on a tax form like a 1099.
Net payout is what actually lands in your account after selling fees, shipping label costs, and any refunds are deducted from the sale price. Your net payout is almost always lower than your gross sales.
To see exactly how a single order breaks down from sale price to the amount you take home, use our seller payout calculator. The fees deducted depend in part on your seller tier, which you can read more about in our seller levels and fees guide.
When required, we issue tax forms (such as a 1099) to sellers who meet the applicable IRS reporting thresholds for the year. These thresholds are set by the IRS and can change from year to year, so we do not publish a fixed dollar amount here.
If you qualify for a form, we will deliver it by the deadline required for that tax year, using the contact and tax information on your account. To avoid delays, make sure the details in your seller account are accurate and up to date well before tax season.
Note: Not receiving a form does not necessarily mean your sales are not reportable. You are responsible for reporting income according to the rules that apply to you, whether or not a form is issued.
Misprint does not provide tax advice, and nothing on this page should be treated as tax, legal, or accounting advice. Tax rules vary by country, state, and individual circumstance. For guidance on your specific situation, please consult a qualified tax professional and refer to official IRS resources.
This page is about reporting the income you earn as a seller. That is a completely separate topic from the sales tax that buyers may be charged at checkout. Sales tax is collected from the buyer at the time of purchase and remitted on their behalf, and it has nothing to do with what you owe on your seller earnings. If you have questions about sales tax charged on purchases, see our dedicated sales tax help page.
