THOUGHTFULLY SIMPLE HOUSEHOLD PAYROLL

Good to know

Your questions, answered.

Still curious about how Sadie works? Read our helpful resources or get in touch.

When do I start paying?

Your first payday is free, with no credit card required. After that, an active subscription is needed to calculate more paydays and create new ongoing payroll and tax outputs. Pricing starts at $12.99/month for your first active employee, plus $4.99/month for each additional active employee.

Will Sadie pay my employee for me?

No. Sadie calculates estimated take-home pay and keeps records, but never moves your money. You send wages directly using the payment method you already use, such as Zelle, Venmo, Cash App, or bank transfer.

Does Sadie file my taxes?

No. Sadie provides household payroll tax estimates, deadlines, guidance, and populated W-2, W-2c, W-3, EFW2 wage-file and Schedule H materials. You remain responsible for reviewing, signing, submitting, and paying tax agencies. Some local taxes are not covered; check coverage for details.

Can I add more than one employee?

Yes. Your first active employee is $12.99/month, and each additional active employee adds $4.99/month. Use the calculator above to see your estimated monthly subscription cost.

Is my household's information secure?

Sadie says it does not collect Social Security numbers or bank login credentials. Employees enter their own information using private invitations. Visit the security page for details on Sadie's practices.

What happens if I cancel?

You can cancel your plan anytime from Settings. Canceling stops billing without closing your account or deleting existing records. Closing the account is a separate step from Settings: the account is inactive for 14 days, then permanently deleted. Export what you need first. Once an account is completely deleted, it cannot be reversed.
