HOW DO YOU HANDLE THIRD PARTY PAYMENTS ON 1099'S?
Any payments made by credit card or third-party payment processor will be reported on the 1099-K by the payment processor, not on 1099-MISC by the original payer. The processor is required to file a 1099-K for recipients who receive payments from multiple original payers that exceed in aggregate $20,000 and more than 200 transactions in a calendar year.
