When is the best time to switch?

Traditionally, the end of the year is a great time to switch providers so you don’t have to worry about transferring old payroll data.

The reality is, we help businesses switch to Gusto all the time, no matter the season. Our friendly support team will make sure you have the forms you need to be up and running in no time.

Plus, we know exactly what to debit for so your payroll tax information will be current and accurate.

How do I set up benefits?

Benefits administration is included for no additional cost with our Core, Complete, and Concierge plans, but deciding 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.

Already have benefits managed elsewhere? We’ll help you set up payroll deductions so you don’t have to do it manually.

How much does Gusto cost?

We offer four different pricing plans so you can find the right fit for your business and your budget. Prices start at just $45/month depending on how many employees you have.

The best part? We’re always transparent about pricing. We never charge extra fees for setup, off-cycle payroll runs, filing W-2’s, and more.
