Built around the work
Payroll should feel boring—in the best possible way.
You send clean hours, review the result, approve payroll, and move on. AdeptPayroll is designed to surface exceptions instead of making you hunt for them.
↔
W-2, 1099—or both
Real businesses are messy. AdeptPayroll is being built around one payee with the right compensation relationship, not duplicate identities.
⌁
Switch without starting over
Bring prior payroll records and year-to-date totals so the transition can preserve the history you need for accurate year-end reporting.
◎
Multi-state without fee games
Routine multi-state payroll compliance is part of the service. We don’t want every additional state or routine form to become another invoice line.
▣
Clear approval before money moves
Payroll and tax activity should be reviewable. Adept is designed around controlled approvals rather than silently moving money.
☏
Support that knows payroll
If something doesn’t reconcile, you should be able to get help from someone who understands the payroll—not just a generic help center.
Compliance without the clutter
One payroll system. Multiple states. One clear price.
Routine federal and state payroll filings belong inside payroll—not scattered across add-on packages and surprise fees.
✓Routine federal payroll tax filing
✓Routine state withholding and unemployment filing
✓Year-end W-2 and 1099 e-filing

Questions
What businesses usually want to know first.
Does the $59 include payroll tax filing?
Routine federal payroll filings and routine state withholding/unemployment filings are included in the service price. We keep unusual historical cleanup, new-state registrations requiring manual work, client-caused amendments, and third-party pass-through costs separate so the normal monthly price stays predictable.
Do you charge more for multiple states?
Routine multi-state payroll support is included. We do not want a normal additional state to feel like a penalty or surprise add-on.
What does “person paid” mean?
The per-person fee applies to each unique person you pay during the month. AdeptPayroll is designed to support W-2, 1099, and legitimate combination compensation relationships without treating one person as multiple people for billing.
Can I switch payroll providers during the year?
Yes. The important part is establishing accurate year-to-date payroll and tax totals. Our setup flow is designed to collect prior payroll records so those opening totals can be reviewed before the first live run.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract?
The goal is to earn the business by making payroll easier, not by trapping a client in paperwork. Start with the trial workflow and evaluate the first two payroll runs.
Payroll should help you run the business—not become the business.
Try AdeptPayroll with your actual workflow. Bring your records, run the numbers, and see whether it makes payroll easier before you commit to changing your process.
