QuickBooks Online

• Intuit can automatically calculate, file, and pay your payroll taxes.

QuickBooks Desktop

• Pricing for the basic version of QuickBooks Desktop payroll is 29.00 dollars plus 2.00 dollars for each employee per month.
• Time tracking is integrated into the payroll module.

QuickBooks Online, also known as QBO, is becoming more popular with small business owners that want to be able to work in their QuickBooks file on the fly. QBO can be accessed anywhere you have a computer and a good internet connection. That said, Intuit has developed a three-tiered payroll program to meet the needs of any size business. Features for each version are found in the table below.

*Only QuickBooks Online Payroll Elite users are eligible to receive the tax penalty protection. If you receive a tax notice and send it to us within 15-days of the tax notice we will cover the payroll tax penalty, up to $25,000. Additional conditions and restrictions apply.

QuickBooks Desktop is the gold standard for financial software used by millions of businesses. The Payroll module is available for all desktop versions from Pro to Enterprise.

*Error-free guarantee: We assume responsibility for federal and state payroll filings and payments directly from your account(s) based on the data you supply. As long as the information you provide us is correct and on time, and you have sufficient funds in your account, we’ll file your tax forms and payments accurately and on time or we’ll pay the resulting payroll tax penalties. Guarantee terms and conditions are subject to change at any time without notice.
