SurePayroll
Online payroll and HR services for small businesses and households, part of Paychex
SurePayroll is an online payroll service from Paychex aimed at small businesses, household employers, and solopreneurs. It handles payroll runs and payroll tax calculation, filing, and depositing at the federal, state, and local level, while keeping paystubs, filings, and pay records available online from any device.
Core capabilities include unlimited payroll runs, free two-day direct deposit, automatic payroll scheduling, reports and paystubs, and support for W-2 employees and 1099 contractors. Related offerings include 401(k) retirement plans, workers' compensation, health insurance, employment law and HR compliance support, and payment processing. An AI assistant called Max matches businesses to retirement plans based on a short questionnaire.
SurePayroll is packaged as monthly, cancel-anytime plans with a base fee plus a per-employee fee. The Full Service edition includes tax filing and depositing; the No Tax Filing edition excludes those tasks. Separate pricing is available for nanny and household payroll, and accountants and resellers have dedicated resources. Promotional free months are offered on new signups under stated terms.
