Each payroll week counts once, the first time you download it, in any format. Downloading it again never counts, and drafts and previews never count. On a plan there is no per-report fee.
No. $0 setup fee, always. Just sign up and start entering data. You can even import from your existing payroll provider.
12 supported via CSV import: ADP, Paychex, Gusto, QuickBooks, UKG, Paycor, Paylocity, Rippling, Dayforce, Foundation, Sage 300, and Trimble Viewpoint. Export a CSV from your provider and the columns are mapped from its headers. You can also enter data manually.
Yes. Give each project its locations and link the determination that governs each one; every classification on the payroll is checked against those determinations. A per-day work location on the payroll is not something you can set today.
Yes. Your first 3 certified payroll reports are free, with no credit card. After that, downloading a new payroll needs a plan, and your first plan starts with 14 free days. You are not charged unless you pick a plan.
Yes. The interface is available in English and Spanish, including the plain-language attestation shown at certify time.
No. CertifiedPayrollPro works completely standalone: enter payroll data by hand, with Lydia, our built-in AI assistant, to explain the rules. Importing your payroll provider's CSV is optional and saves time on data entry.
3 free reports with full Pro access. 14 free days on your first plan. $0 setup fee.
