FAQs:
OnPay Payroll

  • How much does it cost to run payroll?

    Starting at $40, plus $6 per each worker, you’ll get access to OnPay’s award-winning payroll. No sneaky add-ons or hidden fees, ever.

  • How do you handle organizations with special payroll needs like nonprofits, restaurants, churches, or farms?

    OnPay is designed to handle payroll for any small business (and their accountants). That means our software is efficient and intuitive as a company grows from one to 500+ employees. We make things simple for companies like:

    • dental practices and law firms (automated tax filings, fast pay runs, and top-notch integrations)
    • restaurants (we automate all of the calculations from overtime hours to minimum wage tip makeup)
    • farmsnonprofits, and churches.  (we automate Form 943 filings, FUTA exemptions, and all tax deductions)

    For specialized industries, OnPay goes beyond standard payroll software. We simplify payroll for dental practices and law firms, allowing them to focus on their clients rather than administrative tasks. In the restaurant industry, where managing tipped wages can be complex, OnPay ensures accuracy and compliance, giving peace of mind to business owners. Additionally, we cater to the unique tax filing requirements of farms, nonprofits, and churches, providing tailored solutions that address their specific needs.

    With OnPay, small businesses, regardless of their industry, can trust that their payroll will be handled with precision and ease, allowing them to concentrate on growth and success.

  • What if I have a combination of W-2 and 1099 workers I need to pay?

    We’ll make paying your team easy — no matter who’s involved. Small businesses are hiring a bigger mix of in-house employees and contract workers lately, so we’ll let you process all the workers you need to pay in the same pay run. We handle W-2 forms and 1099 filings at the end of the year. And if a worker goes a month without being paid through OnPay, it takes one click when running payroll and you won’t be charged for them.

  • How can I integrate payroll with my accounting and time tracking software?

    We have the very best payroll integrations with QuickBooks and Xero, and our payroll software syncs seamlessly with top time-tracking software, like QuickBooks Time, Deputy, and When I Work. See all our integrations.

  • How do I handle paying tipped workers?

    Our flexible payroll platform makes it easy to handle hourly pay and tipped wages. In just minutes, you can add additional or custom pay types (like cash tips) to a regular pay run. And when it comes to filing your quarterly returns, we’ll make sure all of the taxes are done right.

  • How can cloud-based payroll help my business?

    Cloud-based payroll software gives you the flexibility to pay your team from anywhere and on any device (even mobile). With all of your data saved securely to the cloud, you can run payroll remotely on your own schedule and get your team paid on time.

  • As a small business owner, how can I make sure I’m handling taxes correctly?

    With OnPay, we take the hassle (and headache) of taxes off your plate. We automate all of the federal, state, and local tax filings and payments for you ⁠— and with an accuracy guarantee. If there’s ever an issue, we’ll talk to the IRS for you.

    We stand behind our work, meaning you can trust that your tax obligations will be met without errors, but in the rare event that an issue arises, you won’t have to deal with the hassle of navigating the IRS. We’ll step in and handle communication with tax authorities on your behalf, giving you peace of mind and more time to focus on your business.

    OnPay isn’t just payroll software that automates your taxes—we are dedicated to making sure your business stays compliant and free from tax-related headaches.

  • How do my workers receive their paycheck?

    OnPay lets you pay your team the way that works best for you, whether by direct deposit, printing paper checks, or even prepaid debit card. You can process payroll for everyone in the same pay run ⁠— even if you have a mix of payment methods.
