How do I get my theScore Bet win/loss statement and W-2G forms?

By the W2gMatch team · Sources checked 09-11-2026 · General information, not tax advice.

W-2G forms are in the app under My Account; a win/loss statement is issued by customer support on request. The steps below were read from theScore Bet's own help page on 09-05-2026. The statement covers every wager on the account; W-2Gs for reportable wins come separately, and the IRS already holds a copy of each.

What theScore Bet issues, and when

A sportsbook issues a Form W-2G for a single wager that pays at least the reporting threshold ($2,000 for 2026) and at least 300 times the stake, with federal withholding on larger payouts. Most sports bets never qualify, so most winnings arrive with no form and are still taxable. Daily fantasy and promotional prizes come on a 1099-MISC instead.

Separately, theScore Bet provides an annual win/loss or activity statement of every wager on the account: amount wagered, amount returned and the net, usually with a note that it is not a tax document. [1] W-2G forms are available by January 31 for the prior year. ESPN BET accounts moved to theScore Bet.

How to get the statement

W-2G forms are in the app under My Account; a win/loss statement is issued by customer support on request.

  1. For W-2G forms: sign in, tap your profile in the top right to open My Account, then "W2G Tax Forms".
  2. For the win/loss statement: email [email protected] (or use in-app support) and ask for your annual win/loss statement for the tax year.
  3. Save it for your preparer.

The account pages are usually reachable only from a state where theScore Bet operates; a VPN or an out-of-state login can fail.

These steps were read from theScore Bet's own page on 09-05-2026. [1] Operators move these pages; if a step no longer matches, the help page is the place to start.

If you cannot sign in

theScore Bet also takes requests by email to [email protected]. [1] Allow two to four weeks for a mailed statement.

What the statement shows, and what it does not

The statement is a summary of every wager on the account, so it is complete for the account, but it is one operator's view. Play elsewhere, and any play on a second account, is not on it. It usually carries a note that it is an estimate and not a tax document. The IRS asks for a contemporaneous diary supported by records such as statements and tickets; the statement supports the diary rather than replacing it. [2] [3]

Read it with the W-2Gs. A W-2G reports one reportable win and the IRS already holds a copy; the statement reports the net of the year's play. The two measure different things and are expected to disagree, and a return has to show how they fit. The reconciliation page walks through it.

When is the theScore Bet statement for last year available?

W-2G forms are available by January 31 for the prior year. ESPN BET accounts moved to theScore Bet.

Does the theScore Bet statement include every bet?

Yes, for that account. Every wager is placed on the account, so the annual statement covers all play there. It does not include play on another operator or a second account, and it is not the W-2G: a W-2G reports one reportable win, and the IRS receives a copy of each.

Is the theScore Bet win/loss statement enough for my return?

Not on its own. The IRS asks for a contemporaneous diary of winnings and losses supported by records, and the statement is one of those records. Statements from every operator you used, the W-2Gs and 1099s, and your own log together let a preparer show winnings, show losses, and explain every difference between the documents and the forms the IRS matched.
