Where is payroll currently available?

Payroll is currently available to U.S.-based customers in all 50 states and Washington, D.C.

Instead of running payroll manually and tracking complex federal and state requirements every pay period, you can use the Homebase payroll app and online payroll tools to automate calculations for hours worked, wages, and deductions. Timesheets and time card data flow into payroll summary reports, and Homebase can generate printable checks or send direct deposits for hourly or salaried employees, making payroll simpler for restaurants and other small businesses.

What is a good payroll example?

A good payroll solution should save time, reduce the risk of errors, and help prevent payroll fraud. Homebase provides full-service payroll by keeping schedules and hours worked in one place, automatically tracking breaks and overtime, syncing data to payroll, and calculating the right taxes and deductions so you can run payroll successfully in just a few clicks.
