Keeping Your Team Paid, No Matter Where You Are

Payroll should move as smoothly as your team does, whether you’re managing shifts on the Santa Monica boardwalk or processing paychecks for a remote crew across five states.

At JPZ Bookkeeping, we offer flexible payroll support that keeps up with your business. We work with Gusto to build systems that are efficient, accurate, and easy to manage.

Here’s how it works:
StepWhat We Handle

Payroll Compliance That Scales With Your Business

Payroll rules don’t play by a single set of guidelines. One set of staff might clock in at your LA storefront, while others work remotely from Texas, and each comes with its own compliance requirements.

We keep track of changing wage laws, tax filings, and the fine print that comes with multi-location teams, so you don’t have to get lost in the legal maze.

What We Monitor:

  • Federal & State Withholding Rules
  • Social Security & Medicare Contributions
  • Unemployment Insurance Tax (FUTA & SUTA)
  • Overtime & Minimum Wage Laws by State
  • Payroll Records Retention & Labor Poster Requirements

Let us handle the fine print while you enjoy the bigger picture.

Integrated with Your Bookkeeping System

When payroll and bookkeeping work together, everything runs smoother; your financials stay clear, consistent, and ready when you need them.

We integrate payroll systems directly with:

  • QuickBooks Online
  • Gusto
  • Stripe & Shopify for contractor payouts

Real-time payroll data flows into your books for faster tax prep, clearer cash flow, and smarter decision-making.
