About Check
Check is payroll infrastructure that software companies can build into their own products. It handles the payroll steps a platform would otherwise need to build and maintain itself.
What it does
Check gives platforms the building blocks for payroll, including money movement, tax calculation, real-time payments and tax filing. Platforms can add features such as custom pay rates, deductions and garnishments, plus benefits like workers compensation, 401k and health coverage. Onboarding and fraud protection are part of the setup.
Key features
- Tax calculation and tax filing
- Real-time payments and money movement
- Custom pay rates and deductions
- Workers comp, 401k and health benefit options
- Onboarding flows and fraud protection
Who it's for
Check is built for software companies that want payroll inside their own product, such as workforce tools, vertical software and marketplaces. It is less suited to a business that only needs payroll for its own staff.
Pricing and good to know
Access starts with a conversation with the company's team. The company reports that its payroll runs for more than a million employees and tens of thousands of businesses. Payroll products involve tax, compliance and money movement, so plan time for review before you launch to customers.
