ADP (Automatic Data Processing) is a global leader in business outsourcing and human capital management (HCM) solutions. They provide a massive ecosystem of services ranging from small business payroll to enterprise-level workforce management, tax services, and benefits administration. For affiliates and partners, ADP offers several distinct pathways for collaboration, most notably through the PartnerStack network and specialized programs for accountants and business advisors.

The affiliate program, often managed via PartnerStack, is primarily focused on their "RUN Powered by ADP" platform, which is tailored for small businesses. Affiliates can earn significant one-time payouts, often reaching up to $1,000 per qualified sale depending on the tier and specific product referred. For those in the accounting and financial advisory space, ADP provides a dedicated "Accountant Revenue Share Incentive Program." This specialized track allows professionals to earn up to 75% revenue share on their referrals' monthly payroll invoice fees for the first 12 months, followed by ongoing residual payments for as long as the client remains with ADP.

From an affiliate perspective, the program is highly structured with clear tracking through a dedicated dashboard. Revenue share and commissions are generally paid out within 45 days after the end of the fiscal quarter in which the referral started processing. Tracking typically relies on a unique Partner Identification Code (PIC) or referral links. The program is particularly lucrative for those who serve a B2B audience, especially small business owners, startup founders, and HR professionals who require robust, compliant, and scalable payroll and compliance infrastructure.
