Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between the Business Edition and Accountant Edition?

The Business Edition is designed for individual businesses to manage their own payroll, while the Accountant Edition allows accountants to manage payroll for multiple clients from a single dashboard.

Can I switch between editions later?

Yes, you can upgrade from the Business Edition to the Accountant Edition at any time, especially if you need to manage multiple companies. However, downgrading from Accountant Edition to Business Edition is only possible if you're managing a single company. Our support team can guide you through the process.

Is there a limit to the number of employees or clients I can manage?

No. Both editions support unlimited employees. The Accountant Edition also supports unlimited client payroll accounts.

Do both editions include direct deposit and tax form generation?

Yes. Both editions support ACH direct deposit, MICR printed checks, and generation of W-2s and other payroll tax forms. Our cloud payroll software generates secure ACH direct deposit files that can be submitted to your bank or ACH provider for seamless paycheck processing.

Can employees or clients’ employees access their own portals?

Absolutely. Both editions include a secure self-service portal where employees—or employees of your clients—can view pay stubs, access tax forms, and update personal information.

Is support included with both editions?

Yes, both editions include access to our U.S.-based support team for expert help whenever you need it.
