The Best 1099 Software for Accounting Firms of 2026

Between June and August 2026, we reviewed seven live 1099 filing platforms and compared their published product details, pricing, and available third-party review data. We rank-ordered the top seven using the following criteria:

• Federal, state, and TIN compliance (35%): Federal filing status visibility and IRS information-return workflows, direct state filing and state reporting, and TIN matching availability, limits, and cost.
• Coverage, integrations, and support (27%): Supported forms beyond the 1099 series (W-2, W-2C, 1095, 1098, 94x, 1042), direct integrations and import options, and access to live human support.
• Cost and inclusions (20%): Whether federal filing, state filing, print and mail with postage, and secure online recipient delivery are bundled into the published per-form price.
• Setup and filing (18%): Data entry, imports, guided steps, filing speed, and how much manual work remains for the firm.

The table below shows the results, followed by a detailed review of each platform.

The Best 1099 Software for Accounting Firms of 2026

In the table below, we break down each platform's scores across all four criteria, along with a weighted composite total and their main focus.

Yearli, for accounting-firm filing operations

Yearli handles federal filing, state reporting, and recipient delivery for W-2, 1099, and 1095 forms. Its accountant plans include Core, Performance, Premier, and Custom options. The current accountant page lists Core as free plus filing fees, Performance at $129 per year plus filing fees, and Premier at $799 per year plus filing fees. Custom plans add features such as direct state filing, recipient print and mail, online retrieval, data integrations, multi-user licenses, advanced reporting, and user permissions for teams. Yearli's plan page also lists phone, email, and chat support by plan.

Firms can enter data manually, import a file, use a generic Yearli import template, or connect through more than 30 integrations. Yearli shows filing progress through statuses such as submitted, accepted, rejected with reasons, mailed, and posted. Performance and Premier include unlimited TIN matching at no additional cost, while Core uses paid per-use matching. Yearli also provides live phone support and live chat, along with support tickets and a knowledge base; phone support is a Performance and Premier feature. The company describes a path that can take as little as 15 minutes for a small filing batch, while larger client sets need more preparation.

Its public pricing gives firms a starting point, but filing fees and selected services still need to be included in a full cost estimate. The IRS requires electronic filing for 10 or more information returns, so firms should also check how their annual volume and form mix affect the total bill. Yearli fits firms that need a repeatable process across many client accounts.

• Location: Grand Rapids, MI, through Greatland Corporation
• Year Founded: 1974, Greatland Corporation
• Price Range: Free plan plus $129 or $799 annual subscription and filing fees; Custom pricing available
• Average Review Score: 4.8/5.0 on Shopper Approved from 81,681 reviews; Capterra lists 3.9/5.0 from 8 reviews
• Services Offered: Federal e-filing, state reporting, recipient delivery, W-2, 1099, 1095, TIN matching, data integrations, team permissions, reporting

E-File Magic, for online filing with optional services

E-File Magic is an online filing platform that supports e-file, e-delivery, PDF form creation, print and mail, and TIN matching. Its public pages state that e-file and e-delivery come standard, while print and mail and TIN matching are optional. The service supports major form series such as 1098, 1099, 3921, 3922, 1042-S, 1097, W-2G, and W-9. It also accepts imports from QuickBooks, Xero, and Excel.

The service page says firms can file one form or larger batches quickly, but larger client sets still require review and validation. E-File Magic uses a combined federal and state filing program for most states, while some states require an additional state data file or direct filing step. Its pricing page uses a calculator with separate options for e-file, print and mail, TIN matching, and Excel filing, so firms should price a representative client batch instead of treating the base rate as an all-in total.

• Location: Portland, OR
• Year Founded: Not publicly stated; the company says it was founded by a CPA and a software engineer
• Price Range: Calculator-based; e-file and e-delivery included, print and mail and TIN matching optional
• Average Review Score: 5.0/5.0 on Trustpilot from approximately 2,000 reviews
• Services Offered: 1099 filing, e-delivery, PDF creation, print and mail, TIN matching, Excel imports, QuickBooks imports, Xero imports, 1098, 1099, 1042-S, 1097, W-2G, and W-9 filing

1099 Pro, for mixed cloud and desktop workflows

1099 Pro provides online filing and Windows desktop software for information returns. Its product pages describe TIN matching, print and eDelivery tools, and filing workflows for IRS information returns. The company also offers a Service Bureau option for firms that want help with printing, mailing, or electronic delivery. Capterra lists a single-user price of $349, with higher one-time prices for multi-user plans, while a current industry comparison lists annual service packages starting at $499 for e-file only, $684 for e-file plus print and mail, and $714 for e-file, print and mail plus eDelivery.

The platform gives firms a choice between a hosted workflow and local software. That can help a firm with existing desktop processes, but it also creates a more involved buying decision than a single browser-based plan. Firms should confirm which product version includes the features they need, how data moves between desktop and cloud tools, and whether service-bureau costs are separate from the software price.

• Location: Calabasas, CA
• Year Founded: 1989
• Price Range: $349 one-time for single-user software; annual service packages reported from $499 to $714
• Average Review Score: 3.8/5.0 (8 reviews, Capterra)
• Services Offered: 1099 filing, W-2 filing, TIN matching, bulk uploads, print and mail, eDelivery, desktop software, cloud filing, Service Bureau

eFileMyForms, for pay-per-form filing

eFileMyForms provides online filing for 1099, W-2, 1098, 5498, and ACA forms. The platform lists no monthly fees and supports federal filing, print and mail, corrections, state services, and TIN matching. Its pricing page lists 1099 e-file-only rates from $2.99 for 1 to 20 forms down to $1.19 for more than 1,000 forms. Print and mail costs more, direct state reporting is listed as an add-on at $1.49 per state return, and TIN matching is listed at $1 per match.

The service is a reasonable fit for firms that want a simple online process without an annual subscription. It also supports multi-client setups and markets directly to CPAs. The main cost question is the final per-form total after state filing, TIN matching, and recipient delivery. Firms should model those services across a representative client set before choosing it for a full filing season.

• Location: Calabasas, CA
• Year Founded: Not publicly stated on the reviewed product pages
• Price Range: $1.19 to $2.99 per 1099 e-file, plus optional services
• Average Review Score: 2.5/5.0 on Trustpilot from 7 reviews
• Services Offered: 1099 filing, W-2 filing, ACA filing, state reporting, TIN matching, corrections, print and mail, CPA and multi-client workflows

Form1099Online, for low-cost online filing

Form1099Online presents itself as an IRS e-file provider and publishes volume pricing for 1099 forms. Its pricing page lists $3.99 per form for 1 to 100 forms, $2.99 for 101 to 500, and $1.99 for 501 to 1,000, with lower rates at higher volume. The company also publishes a Wichita, Kansas address and says it serves more than 95,000 businesses.

The service is built around straightforward online filing and low per-form cost. That can work for firms with repeatable, lower-complexity filings, but the public pages provide less detail about firm-level permissions, client dashboards, and advanced reporting than Yearli's accountant plan pages. A firm should confirm how it separates client accounts, handles corrections, supports state reporting, and delivers recipient copies before standardizing on the platform.

• Location: Wichita, KS
• Year Founded: 2018
• Price Range: From $3.99 per form, with lower rates at higher volume
• Average Review Score: 2.5/5.0 on Trustpilot from 6 reviews
• Services Offered: 1099 e-filing, volume pricing, recipient delivery, IRS-authorized filing, online support

1099FIRE, for broader information-return coverage

1099FIRE is operated by National Software, Inc., with an office in Phoenix, Arizona. Its current site emphasizes IRS IRIS and ACA filing tools while also describing 1099 software that can import, print, and e-file forms. The site lists a starting price of $599 for ACA software, while Capterra lists 1099FIRE software at $69.95 per year and reports a 4.0/5 average from two reviews.

The platform may fit firms that file several types of information returns and want a vendor with a longer information-return software history. Its current positioning is broader than a 1099-only workflow, so firms should verify the exact 1099 forms, state services, delivery options, and user controls included in the product they are considering. The small public review base also limits the amount of independent evidence available.

• Location: Phoenix, AZ
• Year Founded: 1999
• Price Range: $69.95 per year for the Capterra-listed 1099FIRE Basic plan; other products may differ
• Average Review Score: 4.0/5.0 (2 reviews, Capterra)
• Services Offered: 1099 filing, IRIS filing, ACA filing, data import, printing, e-filing, information-return software

WageFiling, for simple per-form filing

WageFiling is an online service for W-2 and 1099 filing. Its site lists support for 1099-NEC, 1099-MISC, 1099-DIV, 1099-INT, 1098 Mortgage, W-2, and W-2C forms. The company promotes direct filing to the IRS and SSA, email or mail delivery for recipient copies, and per-form pricing without a subscription. Its public pages list a $3.49 per-form price for 1099 filing.

The service is designed for a short filing path: enter form data, review it, and submit. That simplicity can help firms with a small number of straightforward filings. Accounting firms with many clients should confirm whether the account supports client separation, multiple users, imports, corrections, state filing, and audit records before using it across the practice.

• Location: Grand Rapids, Michigan
• Year Founded: 2008
• Price Range: $3.49 per form, based on the current public page
• Average Review Score: No verified third-party score located in the reviewed sources
