1099 Ipsos

February 01, 2026 11:59PM
Does IPSOS mail us our 1099s for Sassie and Shopmetrics? I didn't see anything on the websites.

They always have. I haven't received mine yet either. I guess we'll see what happens.

If you made over $600 you should have got one, mine came last week, but if you made under $600 they won't send one you'll have to figure out what you made by looking at your payments.

I received my 1099 from STN yesterday. Still no Ipsos. But I'm not going to lose any sleep over it, yet.

Ipsos is showing as arriving today in my USPS Informed Delivery email. Speed of service is really awful these days, but this is actually a pretty cool feature.

Have synthesizers, will travel...

Over past years they have later issued corrected 1099s so don't rush in on the first one you get unless you're sure it's correct. Yet another thing they tend to change after the original, unchecked, release.

Isn't the new rule now if you don't make more than 2k, you don't need a 1099 reported?

That will be true effective for TY 2026.

my Ipsos 1099 showed up yesterday. I think I'm only waiting on one more, I haven't been doing a lot of shops for anyone but Ipsos and STN. I doubt I've done enough work for Intouch Insight or ACE to get a 1099 for eating at restaurants. I'll probably wait until March, and to do my taxes just to make sure USPS isn't slacking off.

I think it was 2024, 2025 where I would get 2 different forms for IPSOS. One for the Sassie side of shops and one for the Shopmetrics group of shops. Did they change that? I only got 1 this time. Did anyone else get one for each side of shops?

In the past I have. I didn't do $600 in fees on the Shopmetrics side this year.

That must be - because the 1099 was about $100 less than expected. I made over $600 from the Sassie platform but only around $100 from the shopmetric platform.

Has anyone gotten one from Presto? There is a video on facebook that says you have to submit a help ticket for your W9. However, that was the document we completed at the beginning giving them our information.

I got an email back yesterday saying Presto's 1099's went out the beginning of January from a company called Track1099.com I search through all my emails and I have nothing. They did send me a copy of it and it looks like they did not remove the reimbursables. I already gave my CPA what I made based on my records.

Yes, I received one from Presto quite a while ago.

you will only get a 1099 from any MSC IF they paid you more than $600 in service fees. This amount does NOT include reimbursements.
