SUMMARY & PRICING

PowerPayroll provides an easy-to-use product with a high level of support and is a cost-effective solution for small businesses that do not have the resources to dedicate to a full-time payroll or human resource staff person. Pricing is based on the number of employees within the company and the frequency of the payroll runs. Each base fee includes direct deposit and one native home state. Additional charges for services such as garnishments, time accruals and GL export are each available for an additional fee. A 10-employee business processing payroll either biweekly or semimonthly is currently priced at $67.75 per employee, per payroll run. This price includes all tax services, direct deposit, new hire reporting and some online self-service HR functions.
