Why am I being asked to fill out an IRS Form W-9 for DraftKings? (US)


DraftKings customers are required to fill out an IRS Form W-9 following a reportable win. The requirements for reporting and withholding depend on:

The information provided by the player on the W-9 (name, social security number, and address) is used by DraftKings to populate IRS Forms W-2G and/or 1099-Misc.

In the event your legal name, Social Security Number (SSN), or home address has changed, please fill out an updated W-9.
