Pay your team on time, with books that match.
Payroll touches your team, your cash and your books. Sumday coordinates the payroll cycle with your payroll provider, keeps compensation changes organized, and makes sure every payroll run is recorded correctly in your accounting — including wages, employer costs and benefits deductions.

Map your payroll
We document pay types, schedules, provider settings and how payroll should appear in your books.
Prepare each run
Inputs are collected and checked before you review and approve them in your payroll provider.
Record & reconcile
Each run is posted to your books and reconciled to provider reports and bank activity.
Scope & professional boundaries
Payroll is processed through your licensed payroll provider; Sumday coordinates inputs, records and reconciliations and does not act as an employer of record or PEO. Employment-law and benefits questions are referred to qualified HR, legal or benefits professionals.
Questions
Frequently asked.
Do I need to change payroll providers?
Usually not. We work with established payroll platforms. If your current setup is causing problems, we can outline the options.
Who approves payroll?
You do. We prepare and check the inputs; an authorized person at your business approves each run.
Can you handle commissions and tips?
Yes — variable pay is one of the most common reasons businesses ask for help. The calculation rules are confirmed with you during setup.
