Payroll + Bookkeeping: Why Bundling Saves Time & Money

When payroll and books live together, everything gets easier: fewer errors, faster closes, and lower CPA bills.

Why Bundling Works

  • Single source of truth for wages, taxes, and benefits
  • Faster reconciliations and clean GL mappings
  • Easier month-end and year-end (W-2/1099, 940/941 equivalents)

What It Looks Like in Practice

  • Payroll runs feed the books automatically
  • Variances flagged in the same dashboard
  • CPA-ready reports without extra back-and-forth

Who Benefits Most

  • Multi-state small businesses
  • Seasonal hiring or contractor-heavy teams
  • Anyone tired of amended returns and notices

FAQs

Is it cheaper to bundle payroll with bookkeeping?
Usually. Bundling reduces manual work and amendments, which lowers your total monthly and year-end costs.

Do I need to switch software to bundle?
No-data can flow via integrations. We’ll connect payroll to your books so runs post cleanly to the GL.
