WFIS (1600 AM) was a radio station broadcasting a News Talk Information format to the Fountain Inn/Simpsonville, South Carolina, USA area. The station was owned by Timeless Media, Inc.

On January 2, 2014, the station's licensee surrendered WFIS' license to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for cancellation.
