How we review PEOs
We list every PEO we can verify, 27 so far, and label every price as published, estimated or quote-only.
Every PEO we can verify
Inclusion never depends on whether a PEO pays referral fees. Profiles with little public data are marked “limited” rather than left out.
Certification and pricing
CPEO status is checked against the IRS active list dated Aug 7, 2026. Prices are marked Published (from the PEO), Estimate (third-party) or Quote only. Data last checked Oct 27, 2026.
How lists are ordered
Each list is ordered by fit for the situation in its title, and every pick says who it's for and who should skip it.
The quiz and quotes
The fit quiz runs in your browser and sends nothing. If you request quotes, we share your request only with the PEOs you agree to.
How we make money
Some PEOs pay TopPEOs when a business we introduce signs with them. That payment never changes an order, a price we show or whether a PEO appears.
