Stress-free payroll for a fast-moving industry

Retail moves quickly—and if you’re running the store, payroll is often the last thing you want to deal with. Whether you’re scheduling part-timers, adjusting shifts last-minute, or managing a rush of seasonal hires, your team is constantly changing. And without in-house HR or finance staff, you’re often left doing payroll yourself—after hours, at the counter, or on your phone between customers.

Here’s what retail businesses are up against:

Frequent turnover and hiring cycles

Employees come and go often—especially during peak seasons. Getting new hires into payroll quickly (and accurately) shouldn’t be a time suck.

Commission and incentive pay

Sales staff might earn more than just their base wage—paying bonuses and commission adds another layer of complexity.

Minimum wage requirements

Especially with younger or part-time staff, making sure you're up to date on current wage laws matters—without spending hours checking spreadsheets.

No technical expertise (and no time to learn)

Most store owners didn’t open their business to become a payroll specialist. The system must be simple, clear, and fast—or you won’t use it.

Our Solution

SurePayroll offers an easier way.

We can help you pay both W-2 employees and 1099 workers, send reminders when it’s time to run payroll, and calculate and file your payroll taxes. Our interface is built for busy people, not accountants. So, whether you’re managing two employees or twenty, we can help make payroll one less thing to worry about.

Just click. Run. Done.
