This is a very important step in the Publisher application approval process as it ensures that all of our Publishers meet the tax standards of their home countries. It is necessary that we have a full understanding of how your business operates from a tax-paying point of view before you will be accepted to the AzoogleAds network.

Attention: Publisher Applications Department

In order to comply with our Accounting standards and US IRS regulations, we require all of our US Publishers to submit a W-9 form. This form enables us to correctly report your taxable income to the US government every year.  We will require a printed, completed form to be post mailed to our Markham address. Please note that while you will be able to run our offers prior to sending us your W9 form, your payments will not be processed until we are able to complete your account information with the W-9. You can find the W-9 form below, along with instructions on how to fill it out:

In order to comply with our Accounting standards and US IRS regulations, we require all of our Non-US Publishers to submit the appropriate tax forms for their business type. These forms enable us to correctly report the status of your US earnings every year. While this may not necessarily require you to pay taxes (depending on your country of incorporation), it is still a step that we are obligated to fulfill. We will require printed, completed form(s) to be post mailed to our Markham address in order to complete your application. You can find the required forms below, along with their instructions, broken down by business type:
