NEWGet paid for your own work

Paypr now works from both sides of the hour. If you're the one who's paid hourly, flip into contractor view and track the hours you work for each client — completely separate from any household records you keep.

Clock in as you work

Start the timer when the job starts. Hours land under the right client at your rate — no end-of-week reconstruction.

Know what you're owed

A running tally per client of unpaid hours and what they add up to, so you never chase a number from memory.

Share a clean statement

Send each client a tidy summary of hours worked and the total unpaid — clear, professional, no spreadsheet.

One app, two views — each side keeps its own records, and switching never mixes them. Learn more about contractor view →

Why people use Paypr

Three situations that turn payday into a negotiation from memory — and what Paypr does about each.

The hours drift.

She stays late on Tuesdays, you get home early on Friday, and nobody writes any of it down. By payday you are both reconstructing the week from memory — and one of you is guessing low.

It is never just one person.

A sitter twice a month, a tutor on Thursdays, a cleaner every other week — three different rates, three different rhythms, and one running total you are holding in your head.

Sometimes you are the one being paid.

Clock in when you start, stop when you finish, and send a client a clean statement of the hours they have not paid for yet. No spreadsheet, no invoice template, no chasing.

Paypr keeps the record so the conversation is about the work, not the arithmetic. See how it works →

Questions, answered

How do I track what I owe my nanny?

Add your nanny once with their hourly rate, then log the hours they work each day by dragging across a timeline or tapping a quick entry. Paypr keeps a running balance of what you owe, so payday is never a guess.

Is Paypr free?

Yes. You can track one person free forever. Paypr Pro unlocks unlimited people, weekly/monthly/yearly summaries and CSV export — start with a 7-day free trial, then $2.99/month or $7.99 once for lifetime.

Can I use Paypr for a babysitter, tutor or cleaner?

Yes. Paypr works for anyone you pay by the hour — nanny, babysitter, sitter, tutor, house cleaner, housekeeper or any helper. Set each person's rate and track their hours and payments separately.

Is my data private?

Yes. Your records stay on your device and sync through your own private iCloud account. No ads, no data selling, and analytics never include names, amounts or balances.

I'm the one paid by the hour — can I use Paypr?

Yes. Paypr has a contractor view for people who are paid hourly: clock in as you work, see what each client owes you, and share a clean statement of unpaid hours. Switch between the two views anytime in Settings — each side keeps its own separate records.

Does Paypr help at tax time?

Paypr Pro exports clean CSV records of hours worked and payments made per person — handy for keeping tidy nanny-tax records.

How do I calculate and track overtime for a nanny?

A live-out nanny is a non-exempt employee, so every hour over 40 in a single workweek is paid at 1.5× their regular rate — counted per workweek, never averaged across two weeks and never swapped for time off. A nanny at $25/hour who works 46 hours is owed (40 × $25) + (6 × $37.50) = $1,225 gross. Paypr shows weekly totals so you see the 40-hour line before you cross it. Full guide, with the two-rate case and state exceptions →

Is Paypr a payroll service, or do I still need one?

Paypr is a tracker, not payroll: it records hours, rates and payments and keeps the running balance, but it doesn't withhold taxes, file returns, issue W-2s or move money. Tax and filing duties depend on worker classification, wages and federal and state rules. Being below one threshold does not remove every obligation. You can handle required filings yourself or use a payroll provider; Paypr supplies the hours and payment records. Payroll service vs. hours tracker →

How do I keep records of payments to a house cleaner for tax purposes?

Keep a dated log of each visit with the hours or flat fee, the rate, the amount paid and how you paid it, plus the cleaner's name and address. Record it as it happens rather than reconstructing later, and keep the records at least four years. If the cleaner is self-employed you generally file nothing — households don't normally issue a 1099 for personal services — but the log still protects you if the classification is ever questioned.
