  title: Abound API - v4 1099-INT TIN Verifications API
  version: '4'
  description: 'Abound was a US tax-compliance API for platforms and marketplaces: W-9 / W-8BEN / W-8BEN-E collection, real-time TIN verification against the IRS, and generation, filing, correction, voiding and physical mailing of Form 1099-NEC, 1099-MISC, 1099-K and 1099-INT with federal and state tax authorities.


    NOTE: This document is a mechanical conversion of the first-party Fern API Definition that Abound shipped inside its official npm package @withabound/node-sdk (v6.0.68). Abound was acquired and the service has been retired: the withabound.com DNS zone is fully de-delegated and the API hosts no longer resolve. This spec is preserved as a historical record of the API surface.'
