How much is the withholding tax for Quick Store payouts, and why am I charged?
Quick Stores operates under a business model where Printful is required to report and withhold income tax if you don’t provide valid taxpayer information.
If you don’t submit a signed W-9 form, the IRS requires us to withhold 24% of your earnings and send it directly to the US government. This is known as backup withholding.
This applies to U.S.-based sellers using Quick Stores.
Note
To avoid the 24% withholding tax, make sure to upload a completed and signed W-9 form during your payout setup. You can do this through your Printful Dashboard under Billing → Quick Stores.
Once your tax details are verified, you’ll receive your full payout amount, as long as it meets the USD 25 threshold.
