Care.com, the world’s largest online platform for finding and managing family care, and Found, the leading banking platform for the independent workforce, today announced a partnership to provide caregivers with a seamless solution for managing their earnings.
Caregivers on Care.com can now sign up for Found to create a bank account where they can receive their wages and access tools to seamlessly track income and work-related expenses, view financial insights, help with invoicing, and more.
In making the announcement, Naaz Nichols, Care.com’s Chief Customer Service Experience Officer, said, “We believe caregivers should be treated like the professionals they are and providing access to tools that help them manage their finances reflects that belief. Caregivers frequently work for multiple families and can have variable hours so getting paid seamlessly and being able to track earnings is essential. Found is specifically focused on supporting independent workers making them the ideal partner for this new offering.”
Lauren Myrick, CEO of Found, said, “We built Found to provide financial support to a growing portion of the workforce, independent workers, who have historically lacked banking and financial tools that match the flexible nature of their work and income. Caregivers provide us all with such essential support; our partnership with Care will now provide caregivers the support they need for greater economic empowerment.”
In addition to accessing Found’s robust suite of banking and financial tools, caregivers on Care.com will also have special access to a $100 bonus, redeemable upon deposit of $1,000 of earnings into a Found account within 60 days of sign-up*. Found accounts are only available to caregivers using Care.com in the US.
