Drake Software offers an e-Payment Center for making tax payments via debit card or credit card (MasterCard®, Visa®, Discover®, AmEx®).
The e-Payment Center is a convenient option for taxpayers who choose to pay their tax bill at their own convenience once the return is filed. Unlike Integrated File and Pay (IFP), this option is not integrated with the e-file process; instead, taxpayers can simply go to our e-Payment Center at any time to make their payment. Visit 1040paytax.com to see available payment types.
The convenience fees associated with the e-Payment center can be found at https://www.pay1040.com/payment/personal or https://www.pay1040.com/payment/business.
Note If the taxpayer wants to arrange a payment before the return is e-filed, see Drake Tax - Integrated File and Pay - Pay a 1040 or 4868 Balance Due by Credit Debit Card instead.
