Small business payroll software

Because payroll shouldn’t be a growing pain

When you run a tight ship, everything on your plate can seem huge. Whether you need to ensure a constant cash flow or make the most out of your time, an error-prone and time-consuming payroll process keeps you from focusing on your business. Try taking shortcuts with unreliable tech or risky workarounds, and you could expose your employee data to cyberthreats.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Paycom’s full-solution automation ensures a quick, stress-free and accurate payroll process protected by our formally audited and ISO- and SOC-certified security standards. So you can get back to winning new customers, building your brand and focusing on the future of your organization.

Payroll built to keep you moving

Since data flows seamlessly into payroll within our single software, it self-starts each period — you never have to rekey a thing. Plus, our tech automatically finds errors and guides your employees to fix them before submission to ensure precise payroll every time. We’ll even issue checks off our own account to reduce bank charges and simplify your ledger. And as our experts handle the hassle of payroll taxes, you’ll finally have the space you need to focus on the big picture.

Yes! But keep in mind, not all payroll software is built the same. Paycom’s industry-first payroll experience utilizes automation to self-build each scheduled payroll cycle and flag errors as it goes. Then it guides employees to fix those issues before payroll is even submitted, so payday brings 100% accuracy instead of surprises.

Some small businesses may rely on an individual — with little to no payroll experience — to process payroll in a basic accounting program with a low price tag.

However, huge expenses exist on the back end: tax compliance issues, fines, civil penalties and tons of needlessly allocated hours. Add those up and you’ve spent more on the cheaper tool than you would have on a comprehensive payroll software solution.

Employers should consider the best options for their employee head count, industry and employee types (hourly, salary, billable, full-time, temporary, etc.). As your business grows, even modest increases in head count unlock new compliance burdens. Your processes will quickly become more established and need to be streamlined.

Be sure to consider the employee experience and how the right tool can actually help with employee retention. Meet with a Paycom representative today and let us tailor a solution to fit your business's needs.

Several options for small business payroll are available, but ours is built to scale with your small business and your employees. Don’t just take our word for it; let us show you the Paycom difference. Meet with us to see for yourself.

If you want to build and expand your business, with the highest and best use of your time, you need payroll software. Otherwise, manual calculations, tax errors, legal issues and other time-consuming problems await the business owner who takes payroll into their own hands.

With Paycom, you’re assigned a dedicated specialist who truly knows your business.
