Starting at$24.99/mo for 1 user (Starter; time tracking)
Buddy Punch sells time tracking through Starter, Pro and Advanced plans. Each adds a $19 monthly base fee to its per-user price. Payroll is an optional paid add-on.
Monthly and annual per-user prices are published for all three plans.
A 14-day trial without a credit card allows evaluation before subscribing.
Optional payroll includes tax filings and direct deposit, so a separate payroll vendor is not the only option.
Starting at$5/mo for 1 employee (Deel HR (Core); hr)
Deel combines HR, contractor management and international employment services. Core HR starts at $5 per employee per month; contractor management and employer-of-record services have separate fees.
Published starting prices for Core HR, contractor management and EOR help separate the services in a budget.
Core HR can be purchased for workforce records and workflows without treating EOR as the entry plan.
Contractor management and EOR address different international hiring arrangements.
Gusto publishes a monthly base fee plus a per-person charge for each of its three payroll plans. Simple covers single-state payroll; Plus and Premium add multi-state payroll and more HR capabilities.
Published base and per-person fees make recurring payroll costs straightforward to calculate.
Simple, Plus and Premium separate entry-level payroll from broader HR and support requirements.
Month-to-month billing allows cancellation without an annual subscription commitment.
Starting at$55/mo for 1 worker (Payroll Essentials; payroll)
OnPay Payroll Essentials costs $49 per month plus $6 per worker. HR, native time tracking, compliance resources and live HR support are optional paid additions, with bundles also available.
The recurring payroll base and per-worker rates are published.
Native time tracking can be added rather than requiring a separate vendor.
Separate add-on and bundle prices help buyers compare the capabilities they need.
