Your restaurant business must pay a payroll tax when you compensate employees, based on the wages you disburse. Taxes are usually calculated as a percentage of the salaries you pay your staff and finance social insurance programs, such as Social Security and Medicare.
Restaurant employers need to withhold taxes – including income taxes and the employee’s share of social security tax and Medicare tax – based upon wages and tip income received by the employee and to deposit this tax. OnPay automates the calculations and withholdings when you process payroll, and we’ll handle all of the required tax filings and payments — so it’s one less thing on your plate.
Most states have minimum wage tip rates and it varies on where you do business. If a worker’s combined wages and tips don’t meet the minimum wage for the hours worked, you will have to add additional earnings known as a tip makeup to their paycheck. OnPay makes it easy to make sure you’re meeting minimum wage requirements with a built-in tip makeup feature that automates all the calculations.
Paying your team doesn’t need to be a hassle — no matter who’s involved. Small businesses are hiring a bigger mix of in-house employees and contract workers these days, 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, you won’t be charged for them.
