Why am I being asked for my tax information?

If you’re earning money on Acid Nation, you're considered a merchant by our payment provider, Stripe. As part of U.S. tax regulations, Stripe is required to collect tax information from users who may meet certain earnings thresholds—even if you're based outside the United States.

This is due to IRS reporting requirements (Form 1099-K), which apply when your total earnings exceed $600 in a calendar year.

When you approach this threshold, Stripe will send you an email prompting you to submit your tax details and enable electronic delivery of your 1099-K form (if applicable). The process is secure, straightforward, and handled entirely within your Stripe dashboard.

Acid Nation doesn’t provide tax or legal advice, so we recommend consulting a tax professional if you have any concerns.
