What the Team is Saying
What We Do
Check is a payroll-as-a-service API that lets you embed payroll directly in your vertical SaaS, HR, or time-tracking platform. Our API abstracts away the complexities of running payroll: tax calculation, remittance, and filing, plus the movement of money between companies and employees. This enables companies to easily build fully integrated payroll products to offer to their customers.
Why Work With Us
As the first touchpoint for the $10 trillion in wages paid in the US every year, payroll is a strategic yet under-explored space in the broader fintech ecosystem. We believe that the infrastructure-as-a-service model will fundamentally transform the current payroll industry and promote innovation in financial services for years to come.
