Add Payroll to Your HR Practice Without Running It Yourself

A team of payroll professionals works as your firm’s payroll department, under your firm’s name, and runs payroll directly with your clients. You add payroll without adding headcount.

Who runs payroll when HR clients ask?

HR and payroll meet at every hire, pay change and termination. Running payroll is still a different job, with fixed deadlines and tax filings.

Doing it in-house means hiring payroll specialists and covering them when they are out. We take that work on instead.

What we handle under your name:

Every pay run, start to finish

Federal, state and local payroll tax filings

State payroll tax registrations

Agency notices and corrections

Garnishments and deductions

Benefit deductions and premium payments

New hires and terminations

Employee paycheck questions

Why a team

A payroll team, not a single payroll hire

Buffer time before every deadline

Each client payroll gets a dual audit, with buffer time built in before every submission deadline.

Backup across the team

Several team members know each client’s payroll, so a vacation or a resignation does not stop a pay run.

A dedicated Client Success Manager

One point of contact for each client payroll.

Questions HR firms ask

How does a payroll partnership with PayAdvisors work?

It starts with a call with our team. Your firm signs with us, and we work as your firm’s payroll department, under your name, for the clients you bring us.

Will our clients know they are working with PayAdvisors?

Clients see your firm’s name, not ours. We work as a member of your firm, from an address such as payroll@yourfirm.com, so clients do not see a separate company.

Will our clients need to change payroll systems?

No. Each client keeps the system it already uses.

Do you work in all states?

Yes. We run payroll and register employers in all 50 states.

Who handles new hires and terminations?

We process new hires, terminations and deductions in the payroll each period. Your client approves every run.

Who approves each payroll?

Your client approves every run before it goes out.

Can you help if a client’s payroll person quits?

Yes. We can start with the client’s next pay run and stay on as their payroll team.

Is there a contract or minimum term?

No. There is no minimum term. Service is month to month.
