    Important Information Regarding PayPal, Merchant Accounts and the IRS

    Beginning at the start of 2011 the laws regarding the reporting of electronic transactions changed. If you accept credit cards using a merchant account or if you accept payments via PayPal you should know that under many circumstances the income will be reported to the IRS. Failure to claim the revenue on your taxes can draw extra attention from the IRS; something even the most honest person would like to avoid.
