Help from real people

Your clients reach a small, knowledgeable support team that knows household payroll.

Ask away. We love this stuff.

Here are the questions partners ask us most. If yours isn’t here, send it through the form and someone from our team will follow up personally.

"Excellent service. The customer service representatives go above and beyond. They are the best I've encountered."

Waj Ahmed, NY

"Really like this small business. They go above and beyond with their service and also to great lengths to explain things. They helped sort out a year in which I'd missed recording payment, and got me back on track. Can't say enough good things about them!"

Angela M, VA

“Poppins is amazing. It works exactly as advertised and has excellent customer service. A great option for parents who want to be able to use their Dependent Care FSA for a private babysitter or nanny.”

Alice Veksler, VA

“Outstanding customer service from everyone we interacted with. When combined with the very fair pricing, Poppins Payroll gets an enthusiastic “two thumbs up” from us.”

Richard Birney, RI

"We've used Poppins for the past 5 years for our nanny. They took care of all the payroll, tax withdrawals, and tax forms so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Very prompt, very responsible, and worth the minor fee!"

Teagan Phelan, MA

"We had a nanny for five years, and used Poppins from day one. Not having to worry about calculating, filing, or making payments on my own was totally worth it."

Kirk Roberts, VA

"100/10 would recommend! Poppins has saved my sanity. The last time we used a nanny, I did all of the taxes myself. It was such a headache. I was thrilled to find Poppins this time around. It's affordable, easy-to-use, and allows me to spend time with my kids. So worth it!"

Alyx Williams, UT

"Simply the best payroll service. Competitively priced and the team go above and beyond to provide great service. I've used other payroll services and would recommend Poppins above others."

Johanna, NY

"Poppins is a super simple tax resource for this New Yorker who doesn’t have what it takes to follow tax law on his lonesome. Payroll, quarterly tax payments, tax prep, Poppins does it all."

Jonathan Eshleman, NY

"Jordan from Poppins made my experience great. He literally took care of everything when IRS gave me the run around. Cannot recommend Poppins enough!"

Imogene Wilson, CT

"I used Poppins Payroll for several years to pay caregivers for my parents. The service was fast, professional, and practically perfect. Would highly recommend this for anyone who needs to pay household employees."

Andy, MA

"We needed help with some payroll- and tax-related matters two years after we used Poppins. They provided prompt, friendly, and effective help. You can't go wrong with them!"

Victor F, CA

What is the Poppins Partner Program?

The Poppins Partner Program is for professionals who want an easy way to help their clients pay household employees, like nannies and senior caregivers. Partners include nanny and senior care agencies, accountants, care managers, and senior care registries. Partners get their own portal to manage the clients they bring to Poppins, choose how billing works, and either onboard clients themselves or hand them to our team. Poppins handles the payroll and household taxes.

Who is this program for?

It's for professionals whose clients employ caregivers in their home. That includes CPAs and accounting firms, financial advisors, family offices, nanny and senior care agencies, estate and elder law attorneys. If your clients ever ask how to pay a household employee the right way, this program is for you.

What happens after I submit the form?

Our partnerships team will follow up to set up a call, learn more about your clients, and answer any questions. You can start referring right away. Easy peasy!

Is there a cost for me or my organization to join?

No, joining the Partner Program is free. Your clients pay for Poppins as usual, or, if you prefer, you can pay for Poppins and bill your clients yourself.

Is there an incentive for referring clients to Poppins?

Yes! We offer a referral fee to professionals who are able to accept one, plus additional free months for your clients.

Do you serve every state?

Yes. Poppins runs household payroll in all 50 states, including state and local taxes like county and school district taxes where they apply.

What does Poppins actually do for the families I refer?

Poppins takes care of household payroll and taxes for them. We:

  • Calculate, withhold, and file federal, state, and local household taxes
  • Run payroll on a set schedule
  • Pay employees by direct deposit
  • Prepare year-end tax forms like the W-2

Employees can log in to see their pay stubs and track their hours. Families can call a support team that only does household payroll, and we answer 98% of calls in 15 seconds or less.

Who do I contact with questions?

Our partnerships team is here to answer questions and help bring each client on board.

Can more than one person from my organization sign up?

We're glad to talk with everyone on your team. Tell us about your organization when we connect, and we'll set things up to fit how you work.

How is my information used after I submit the form?

We only use what you share to contact you about the Partner Program. We don't sell your information. For details, see our Privacy Policy.
