Can you deduct Zoom Pro for client calls?

Yes—if you use Zoom Pro for client calls in your business, it is generally deductible as an ordinary and necessary business expense.

How to handle it:

• If it is used 100% for business, deduct the full subscription cost.
• If you also use it personally, deduct only the business-use percentage.
• Keep invoices/receipts and note the business purpose, such as client meetings, sales calls, consultations, or project work.
• Report it in the category that best fits your return/bookkeeping system, commonly “software,” “subscriptions,” “office expense,” or “internet/communications.”

Example: If Zoom Pro costs $X per month and you use it 80% for client/business calls and 20% personally, deduct 80% of the annual cost.

If you are an employee using Zoom for work and are not reimbursed, the federal deduction is generally not available under current U.S. rules for most W-2 employees, though state rules can differ.
