Top Payroll Services Companies
Outsourcing payroll hands a provider the pay run itself: gross-to-net calculations, direct deposits, tax withholding, garnishments, and the quarterly and year-end filings such as Form 941, W-2s and 1099s in the US or T4 slips in Canada. Businesses usually switch to a payroll services company after a penalty notice, an expansion into a new state or country, or when the employee who ran payroll leaves.
Providers listed here include domestic payroll bureaus, multi-country payroll partners and accounting firms that run payroll for clients. Compare them on the jurisdictions they file in, the payroll software they run, and who pays the penalty when a deposit or filing is late.
