A new partnership between earned wage access provider Express Wages and Good Hands Home Care will give caregivers and administrative staff access to a portion of their earned income in advance of their scheduled payday.
“We’re proud to partner with Good Hands Home Care,” Express Wages Founder and CEO Alfred Milan said. “Caregiving is deeply meaningful and important work, and strengthening financial stability plays a big role in helping care professionals stay focused on the people and families they serve.”
Express Wages offers a platform that provides employer-integrated, on-demand pay solutions. The company’s plug-and-play technology enables companies to give their employees immediate access to a portion of their earned wages before payday. For workers who are living paycheck-to-paycheck, this early access before payday can help them avoid high-interest predatory loans, unnecessary credit card debt, and overdraft penalties.
Employees can receive up to $200 a day via Express Wages payday advance, with money transfer options including a no-fee Visa Prepaid card. Next-day ACH transfers and instant transfers to debit cards are also available, with transaction fees of $3.95 and $4.95, respectively. Repayment is automatically deducted from the employee’s next paycheck via the app and payroll platform.
Companies using Express Wages can offer the service to employees without making any changes to payroll or experiencing negative impacts on cash flow. Built to ensure both easy integration and interoperability, Express Wages requires no software installation and connects with hundreds of human resources information systems including ADP, Gusto, QuickBooks, and more in a matter of a few days.
In its partnership announcement, Express Wages noted research from a 2025 Bankrate report that indicated that more than a third of Americans had to use funds from their emergency savings in the last year, with nearly one in five Americans having no emergency savings at all. These conditions are what can make consumers vulnerable to high-interest financing products at times of financial stress. In response, a growing number of companies such as Good Hands Home Care are leveraging solutions like earned wage access to give employees greater options when it comes to managing their finances.
“At Express Wages, we focus on building tools that benefit real working lives,” Milan said. “Earned wage access is about offering greater choice and control—giving people more ways to respond when unexpected expenses hit.”
Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, Express Wages made its Finovate debut at FinovateSpring 2025 in San Diego. At the conference, the company showed how a new feature on its app delivers financial wellness experiences to help users improve their financial literacy.
