We all like getting paid, but is your company paying too much to cut paychecks? There are a boatload of payroll processors out there so it can be hard to figure out the costs involved. Let’s break it down.
 
Most payroll processing companies charge fees either by:
  • Percentage of gross payroll
  • Per-employee fee (usually in addition to a base rate or larger annual fee)
  • Per-pay period fee (meaning if you pay your employees weekly, you’ll pay more for processing)
  • Paycheck delivery type (direct deposit vs manual paycheck)
  • Some combination of the above
 
These fee structures are traditional and are meant to do one thing: keep the big payroll companies in business.
 
But for small businesses and nonprofits, the cost of these services is so high (think $200-500/month) that it may prevent leaders from establishing fair and just payroll offerings for their employees. Weekly pay, bonus payrolls, and even hiring for much needed help may be put on hold by management because of payroll processing fees that creep ever higher... that’s not okay in our book!
 
Payroll processing with Blue Fox is 100% different. We charge our clients a simple flat fee per month to process payroll.  And, that’s it! Our payment structure saves your organization money and gives you better flexibility to pay employees as often as you like. You can even pay your employees weekly, give bonuses, and issue commissions at no extra cost.
 
Blue Fox believes in fair and transparent pricing. We receive wholesale and accountant-only discounts on the different platforms we use, and we happily pass those discounts along to clients who take advantage of our bundled services (accounting and payroll, for example). Why? Because that’s the right thing to do and because it just makes sense: if we are your virtual accounting team or CFO, we can run payroll and manage the related bookkeeping seamlessly. It’s a win-win for everyone.
 
Wouldn’t it be nice to rely on one team for all your back-office service needs? Contact us for a quote!

P.S. If you're thinking of making a change, please know it's best to change your payroll provider at month-end or quarter-end to avoid payroll tax filing headaches.
