Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq:INTU), the No. 1 small business payroll provider in
the U.S. with more than 1 million customers, now offers a free
payroll app for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch that simplifies paycheck
calculations for new employers and small businesses that process payroll
by hand.
Snap Payroll frees them from relying on a spreadsheet and their own math
skills to determine the appropriate pay and how much to deduct for
taxes. It lets employers calculate paychecks in minutes, anytime and
anywhere, and pay employees with confidence.
The app provides guidance to the 31 percent of small businesses that are
processing payroll manually as well as first-time employers who don’t
know where to begin. The easy-to-use tool is always updated with the
latest tax rates, eliminating the hassle and errors that can come from
trying to calculate paychecks manually. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce
estimates that one in three small businesses incur some type of payroll
penalty every year because of inaccuracies, which using Snap Payroll can
help them avoid.
“Snap Payroll made figuring out how to pay my first employee completely
painless - I wouldn’t have known where to start without it,” said Angela
Privin, founder of Do-It-Yourself-Health.Com online community. “As a
busy health coach, I manage most of my business on my iPhone and being
able to calculate paychecks anywhere saves me precious time.”
Goodbye Math, Hello Paycheck
Snap Payroll makes it easy for busy employers to create paychecks. They
simply enter the hours an employee worked, along with their pay rate and
the app does the math. It also keeps a record of paycheck history for
easy reference and includes federal and state tax withholding forms.
“At Intuit, we develop products by discovering customers’ unmet,
real-world problems and work to solve them in innovative ways,” said
Ginny Lee, senior vice president and general manager of Intuit’s
Employee Management Solution division. “Snap Payroll is the perfect
example of this. It’s a free app that will generate delight and enduring
value for small businesses with very specific payroll needs.”
The Snap Payroll app is available for free from the App
Store on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch or at www.itunes.com/appstore.
It currently supports employers in Alaska, California, Florida,
Illinois, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, South Dakota, Tennessee,
Texas, Washington and Wyoming, with more states to come in the following
months. To learn more about Snap Payroll or request a specific state,
