PCORI Filing Coupon Code
Enter coupon code FET20 at checkout to save on your Form 720 e-filing service fee with eFileExcise720. The same code also works for PCORI fee filing, and it applies to both single and bulk excise tax filings for the 2026 tax year.
What Is the FET20 Coupon Code?
A Form 720 coupon code is a promo code you type on the payment screen when you e-file your quarterly federal excise tax return. FET20 is short for Federal Excise Tax, and it lowers the service fee charged by eFileExcise720, the IRS-authorized platform you use to prepare and transmit your return to the IRS. The code is active for the 2026 filing year, and it works the same way for first-time filers and returning businesses.

You Can Use FET20 for PCORI Fee Filing
The PCORI fee is reported once a year on the second quarter Form 720, Part II, under IRS No. 133. Because PCORI is filed on Form 720, the FET20 code applies to it in exactly the same way. Enter the code when you file your PCORI fee return to save on the service fee.
For 2026, the PCORI fee is due by July 31, 2026. The rate is $3.84 per covered life for plan years ending October 2025 through September 2026, and $3.47 for plan years ending January through September 2025. If you sponsor a self-insured plan, level-funded plan, or HRA, you are the one responsible for filing. You can read more in our guides on Form 720 Part II filing and who is required to pay the PCORI fee.
What the Coupon Covers
It helps to be clear about what the code applies to. FET20 reduces the service fee that eFileExcise720 charges to prepare and e-file your return. It does not change the actual excise tax you owe the IRS. That amount is calculated from the categories you report and paid directly to the IRS through EFTPS or electronic funds withdrawal. In short, you save on the cost of filing, not on the tax itself. If you later need to correct a return or claim a refund, see Form 720 vs Form 8849.
