In the United States, the Internal Revenue Service identifies cryptocurrencies as property for tax purposes. When you use your cryptocurrency to make a payment with Flexa, you may be exchanging your cryptocurrency for a good or service, and any gain or loss incurred from that transaction could be considered a taxable event.

As a US resident making payments with Flexa, you may be required to file Form 8949, Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets, with your federal tax return.

To assist you with the preparation of your cryptocurrency-related tax filings, Flexa sends you an annual transaction summary (in CSV format) that includes an itemized record of all your activity on Flexa. You can use your Flexa transaction summary to prepare your federal tax return by yourself or import it into a compatible tax preparation service with just one click.
