Starting a business?
You’re in the right place.

We’ve written a helpful article that lists the federal payroll forms for new businesses — there are even download links. And these are exactly the types of forms you can digitally sign and store on Gusto, so you’ll know they’re in one, easy-to-access place.

Gusto-brokered benefits administration is included for no additional cost with our Simple, Plus, and Premium plans. Which benefits you want to add is completely up to you.

Keep in mind, while managing your benefits on Gusto is free, offerings like traditional health insurance or 401(k)s will require monthly fees or premiums. 

But some benefits don’t cost anything extra, like our financial planning tools for employees. Adding these benefits is a no brainer for employers who want to take care of their team beyond the workplace.

Yes! If you prefer paper checks instead of direct deposits, we’ll give you a template to print those paystubs yourself.

Quick tip: If you have employees interested in setting up bank accounts, employees can use Gusto Wallet to have their wages deposited into a simple cash account with a debit card. It’s a free financial planning tool and helps your team get access to their money quickly and easily.

Cash Accounts and the Gusto Debit Card are issued by nbkc bank, Member FDIC.

Yes! A lot of small businesses with straightforward wages use our Payroll on AutoPilot™ feature. You just set your employees’ hours and wages or salary amount and when they should be paid, then we process payroll for you automatically every month. It’s a great way to avoid stress and save time. Plus, we’ll even send you a reminder one day before, in case you want to make changes.
