Check Powers Payroll for Homebase and Announces Partnerships with Other Leading Software Platforms

NEW YORK, June 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Check, the payroll-as-a-service startup whose mission is to make paying people simple, today announced first-of-their-kind embedded payroll partnerships with leading software platforms including Homebase, the premier platform for the busiest local businesses managing hourly employee hiring, scheduling, time sheets, and more. Check powers payroll for platforms that together support over 1 million workers across more than 100,000 small and mid-sized businesses.

The partnerships between Check and these industry-leading companies represent a major milestone in the maturity of embedded finance and payroll. Despite its importance, innovation in payroll has historically lagged behind financial services more generally due to the complexity of handling thousands of taxes across the federal, state, and local levels.

"When we started building Check, we believed that payroll could and should work better, especially for the small businesses that are the backbone of our economy," said Andrew Brown, CEO and co-founder of Check. "We heard from developers hungry to create new payroll products tailored to the needs of specific business and worker types, and we believed that building the infrastructure for them to do so would unleash a new wave of innovation. But we've been humbled by the scale of the exciting, native payroll solutions now being powered by Check."

Check was founded in 2019 and launched publicly in January 2021. Its payroll-as-a-service suite offers everything companies need to build, launch, and scale a payroll product, including Check's intuitive API; its simple front-end modules, Onboard and Express; and a user-friendly customer management dashboard, Console. The company works with leading vertical SaaS companies, time and attendance platforms, HR businesses, and labor marketplaces. In addition to Homebase, Check is powering payroll for Careswitch, Eddy, ServiceTitan, Table Needs, and TreeRing Workforce Solutions, among others.

Homebase helps more than 100,000 local businesses manage their hourly teams, with hiring, onboarding, scheduling, time clocks, communication, HR, and more. And now, with help from Check, they are offering easy-to-use payroll too.

Payroll for hourly employees is especially complex for small businesses. Wages change from week to week, and they have to comply with state and federal labor laws. They can spend hours importing employee data into hard-to-use, complex payroll tools—or worse spend many more hours trying to calculate, pay, and file payroll taxes manually. By fully integrating timesheets and payroll in one platform, Homebase has built a payroll solution that can truly simplify hourly payroll for small businesses.

"We've always seen payroll as a natural extension of our product—and our customers did too. Check has enabled us to build payroll that could be tailored specifically for our customers," said John Waldmann, CEO and co-founder of Homebase. "We're excited to be able to use Check's technology to create our own unique solution to meet the needs of local businesses and hourly teams."
