Will I receive a tax form from Slingshot?

You may receive a US tax form (IRS Form 1099-MISC) from us if you are a Slingshot user, a US taxpayer (i.e., a US person for tax purposes) and received at least US$600 in rewards or prizes during the calendar year.

Please contact us at [email protected] if your filing status changed during the calendar year (i.e., you either become or are no longer considered a US person for tax purposes).

Why did I receive a tax form from Slingshot?

You received a tax form because our records indicate that you received at least US$600 in total rewards and/or prizes during the calendar year in wallets that you own or control. Examples of such rewards or prizes include, but are not limited to, token rewards and NFT rewards.

How does Slingshot calculate the value of my rewards?

We typically calculate the value of your reward on the basis of fair market value, in US dollars, at the time that you received the reward.

What should I do with my Slingshot tax form?

Slingshot does not provide accounting or tax advice, so you should consult an accountant or tax professional to determine your tax obligations. You are solely responsible for your tax obligations and Slingshot will not be liable to you for any tax-related effects of winning rewards.

When will my tax forms be available?

If applicable, a Slingshot tax form for the preceding calendar year will be available in January or February (e.g., a 2022 tax form will be available by February 2023). We will notify you when your tax form is available.

What should I do if my tax form contains incorrect information?

What should I do if I believe I should have received a Slingshot tax form but did not?
