      Aries Financial's Review Sourced from Google

      Ended cooperation after several months of correcting commission statements for our advisers. Repeated silly errors in simple calculations and our team spent hours to check each commission statement which was frustrating and time consuming. And this all was £40 per hour charge to this company.Cherry on the cake was - hear this - several days delay in providing commission statements for all my team due to national elections in Uganda and internet disruptions there. My people were not paid on time and SmartPA refused to refund charge for the job.Beware!

      Holly has been a great help recently both in terms of my business and personal affairs. I am in the process of making some business structure changes in my private dental practice and she has assisted me with all the lengthy paperwork, ensuring that everything is in order. In addition, she has assisted me in researching properties and locations. I would not hesitate in recommending her services as her support has been invaluable to me at this extremely busy time and has allowed me to focus on my patients.Highly recommended +++++

      We were introduced to KDG back in October 2024. They were recommended by a sister company of ours. Our goal was to transition from multiple programs to one program to help streamline and automate as many processes as possible. In order to accomplish this, we needed a company like KDG to help with the customization of the program to accommodate the different needs of the different roles within our organization. They've spent so much time with us, starting with each employee to understand what they need - They've truly been a partner. I would recommend KDG to ANYONE wanting to transition into a simplified system where efficiency and transparency is key.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I look for when hiring a payroll company in the United States?

When hiring a payroll company in the United States, look for the following attributes to verify its reliability and credibility: 

  • Relevant experience: Seek case studies similar to your business structure and industry 
  • Regulatory knowledge: Verify its understanding of the geographic and industry-specific tax, labor, and payroll regulations regarding your business 
  • Client reviews: Request verifiable client references and reviews to assess service quality and customer satisfaction 
  • Tech stack: Check if the payroll, accounting, and HR solutions can scale and integrate with your system 
  • Clear processes: Assess if it has a structured payroll process, including tax filing, error resolution, and compliance checks 
  • Transparent reporting: Look for clear, accurate, and timely payroll reporting 
  • Reliable support: Ensure access to a dedicated support team, available 24/7 or during extended hours for quick resolution and emergency cases  
  • Up-to-date knowledge: See if its articles, blogs, and other content demonstrate understanding of the latest laws and regulations 
  • Compliance standing: Examine if the US payroll company adheres to IRS and DOL regulations for its own operations and employees, as this reflects its ability to manage your company’s payroll activities 

What factors affect the pricing of payroll services in the United States?

The key factors that affect payroll services in the United States include: 

  • Company size: Payroll companies conventionally charge per employee, making bigger team sizes more expensive. 
  • Service scope: Tax filing, benefit administration, and year-end reporting are often considered an add-on to the base fee. 
  • Service frequency: Weekly or bi-weekly payroll schedules require more resources than a monthly schedule, resulting in higher costs.  
  • Compliance requirements: Global, multi-state, and industry-specific regulations (e.g., union rules and healthcare) add to the complexity of payroll computation. 
  • Support and service level: Higher-tier services, such as a dedicated account manager or 24/7 human support teams, have premium fees. 
  • Technology stack: Data migration, system configuration, and employee training usually appear as one-time setup fees. 

On average, you can expect to pay a monthly base fee of $50-$80 and an additional $6-$12 per employee per month. 

How can I verify the credentials of a United States payroll company?

You can verify the credentials of a United States payroll company by: 

  • Examining its CPEO standing under the IRS public listing  
  • Analyzing its use and knowledge of the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System  
  • Checking its Employer Identification Number (EIN) and registration in the Secretary of State  
  • Assessing the company’s IRS and DOL track record  
  • Asking about its PayrollOrg membership and individual team certification (e.g., Fundamental Payroll Certification (FPC) and Certified Payroll Professional (CPP  
  • Ensuring the company has Certified Public Accountants (CPA) on its team  
  • Seeing if its SOC2, ISO, BBB, and other certifications are up to date 

What red flags should I avoid when selecting a payroll company in the United States?

When selecting a payroll company in the United States, avoid the following red flags: 

  • Outdated knowledge on the state and federal labor and tax laws  
  • No proven track record in your industry and business locations, including case studies and client references  
  • Overwhelmingly negative reviews and poor customer service  
  • History of missed filing deadlines, deposit dates, and data inaccuracies  
  • Ambiguous payroll and mid-year onboarding processes  
  • Weak data security practices  
  • Lack of error ownership  
  • Lack of pricing transparency 

What questions should I ask a United States payroll company before hiring?

Ask these questions before hiring a United States payroll company to gauge their expertise: 

  1. What is your experience in handling multi-state and global employees? 
  2. How do you stay up to date with the latest regulatory issues and changes? 
  3. Can you provide case studies and client references of businesses similar to ours? 
  4. What technologies do you use, and how will you integrate them into my system? 
  5. What is your approach to compliance, security, and error resolution?
