Simple, Fast and Friendly Online Payroll Software
4.7/5 (123 reviews)Wagepoint is small business payroll software, built especially for people who have better things to do than manually process payroll. You focus on growing your business, we’ll help you ensure that your employees and contractors are paid accurately and on time.
We help you with all the things that go into a paycheck that you never thought about until you had to pay someone. This includes hourly and salary calculations, additional incomes and deductions and direct deposit with convenient online pay stubs.
Wagepoint also simplifies your reporting and the creation of tax and filing documents. No more scrambling to generate year-end tax documents for your business and your employees. When everything’s automated, it so much easier to fill in the blanks. Depending on the type of business or compliance reports you need, we may also be able to file it for you.
Pros
Wagepoint is extremely user friendly. They make all the functions super easy to find and navigate around the pages.
Their customer support is extremely professional, and I have only ever had wonderfully helpful people.
You are able to integrate to QBO and "push" your payroll journal entries to your payroll clearing account. Super easy to reconcile!
Wagepoint submits ROEs, T4s, source deductions, WSIB, and EHT on your behalf. Never have to worry about manual payments!
Cons
Wagepoint is still growing, and it has some functionalities that are still in the works, such as being able to break out CPP and EI in a journal entry for separate departments, or being able to pull in project codes and times from T-Sheets to classify employee's work times automatically instead of manually. All of the basic+ functionalities work wonderfully though.
The only viable method of customer support is through email, which can take a while if something is super urgent. Calling in can get you an 'urgent' status, but you still have to wait for someone to contact you back instead of being able to talk to someone on the spot.
Run away!
Pros
It had the appearance of functionality. At first, I thought they understood the withholdings and filings that needed to be made.
Cons
We had issues from the moment we started the setup process (which was not as straightforward as the web site led us to believe ). Many things needed to be clarified and corrected after the setup process and Wagepoint was not available for quick contact most of that time. Customer service is nearly non-existent. But the final reason we left was that their ACH processor, NatPay, suggested our business was related to products we have nothing to do with and WITHOUT PROVIDING ANY DATA placed the burden of proof on us. This happened without warning and Wagepoint simply parroted their inquiry. In fact, the evidence they asked from us was our URL, as if that would have proven anything. I could have given them any URL I wanted. This silly request from an already difficult little Canadian company (Yes, based on Nova Scotia) was not worth my time, trust, or effort and we fired them. Now, we pay them nothing to do what we were already half-doing to begin with to support our completely legal and ethical company that has nothing to do with the shady business they suggested. I would disagree with the user whose review stated you get what you pay for with Wagepoint. I did not pay to be irritated by a service company.
Hi Jason,
I'm sorry to hear that you didn't have a good experience while getting set up with Wagepoint.
As a payroll company, we are required to put all prospective customers through rigorous screening before we can do business with them. While we're attempting to better our processes, there are times when legitimate companies get caught in the risk filters. This might be the case with your company. Unfortunately, as a company policy, we cannot override those decisions. I understand your frustration and I'm sorry that we couldn't work with your business.
Sincerely,
Shrad Rao, Wagepoint CEO
We switched our payroll from Ceridian to Wagepoint 2 years ago. I dreaded having to login to Ceridian because it was so archaic and not user friendly at all. It was so hard to find information. I could feel myself getting emotionally frustrated. I hated that I was asking my employees to also use such an outdated piece of software that would also cause them frustration and pain. Then I switched to Wagepoint and my biggest regret was that I didn't switch sooner. Wagepoint is sooo easy to use, it's incredibly automated and their team is incredibly helpful. I never have to worry about anything with Wagepoint. I never miss a payment, I never pay late because of a holiday. I love that it modern and easy for my employees to use. Using Wagepoint is the best decision I have ever made when it comes to payroll!
Pros
Automated. Payroll happens seamlessly every two weeks. Beautiful easy to use interface. Excellent Customer Service. I'm never late with payroll because of a holiday. My employees enjoy using Wagepoint.
Cons
I honestly have never come across a con while using this software. Anytime I've had a question I get immediate support.
Wagepoint is so easy to use! Friendly staff who will go above and beyond-- couldn't imagine doing payroll without them!
Pros
-Ease of use-- this software makes complete sense.
-Great staff with a fast response time.
-Love how staff can check their own paystubs and T4s on their own online account-- environmentally friendly and time-saving not having to print them each time!

Pros
Fast customer support, the ability to process everything myself, the ability to customize payroll needs, the use of automated reporting and automated remittance and the ease of use
Cons
Xero integration does not work in the easiest way for all customers
Hi Alison,
We're just as excited about having you as a long time customer :) Thank you for all the kind words, and we appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback.
I'll be sure to share your comments about the Xero integration with our dev team and and see if we can make it even better.

Wagepoint is our go-to payroll processor. It is super user-friendly, for both myself as the administrator and for our client's employees. We have 16 of our clients on Wagepoint, and that number is continuously growing as it's the processor that we recommend if our current/new clients are looking for a change, or haven't even started on payroll yet.
