How much does payroll service cost?

Payroll costs depend on several factors, including the specific services, plan, and business size. Our top payroll providers charge as low as $17 and as high as $105 monthly without user fees. Some providers charge additional fees for setup, support, next-to-same-day direct deposits, off-cycle payroll runs, tax filing, and more.

No, there’s no free version or free trial, but SurePayroll started a “Six months free” promotion this month. The promotion is available to businesses that meet specific criteria and will last until Nov. 30, 2024.

Can I change the number of employees on my SurePayroll plan?

Sure! SurePayroll allows you to add or remove employees as they join or leave your company. While your subscription fee remains unchanged, you’ll only be charged for active employees.
