Payroll Software With Built-In Tax Filing

Payroll software calculates employee pay, deducts taxes and benefits, pays employees, and files payroll taxes with federal, state, and local agencies. Good payroll software also keeps records for audits and syncs with HR, time tracking, and accounting. Würk’s payroll software does all of this in one platform, with a support team that knows the rules regulated businesses follow.

Payroll software calculates the taxes owed on every paycheck, withholds them, and then deposits and files them with each agency on schedule. Würk handles federal, state, and local payroll tax filing across all 50 states and Puerto Rico, covering more than 5,000 local tax jurisdictions, and produces quarter-end and year-end forms like W-2s for you.

Würk works with businesses in regulated and compliance-centric industries, including cannabis, healthcare, construction, manufacturing, and alcoholic beverage. Since 2015, we’ve supported everything from single-location startups to multi-state operators with complex entity structures, so our team knows the payroll, tax, and banking challenges these industries face.

It depends on how hands-on you want to be. With Würk’s self-service payroll software, your team runs payroll using built-in tools for calculations, compliance, and reporting, with Würk support when you need it. With Managed Payroll Services, Würk’s payroll specialists handle processing for you. Many businesses start with one and switch as they grow.

Würk is a payroll processor, not a professional employer organization (PEO). Clients remain the legal employer of record and keep full control over their workforce, benefits, and employment decisions. Würk does not co-employ workers or take ownership of HR policies. It provides the technology and expertise to run payroll, HR, taxes, and compliance without the co-employment model.

Yes. Würk can configure your account as unbanked, so the platform works as a payroll calculator and reporting tool rather than a payment method. You use Würk to calculate wages, taxes, and withholdings accurately, pay employees directly, and remit payroll taxes to each agency separately, with clean records for every pay period.

Würk supports multi-EIN organizations and IRS-compliant common paymaster arrangements in one centralized platform. Each EIN is configured as its own legal employer for tax filing and reporting, while payroll is managed holistically, which suits businesses with shared employees, parent-subsidiary structures, or a growing entity footprint. For common paymaster setups, Würk tracks wages across participating EINs and applies FICA caps at the employee level, helping prevent duplicate Social Security and Medicare taxation. Employees get one consolidated record and correctly issued tax documents, and finance teams keep EIN-level and consolidated reporting with clean general ledger mapping.

Timelines depend on payroll complexity, number of locations, and system setup, but most clients are onboarded in a few weeks, not months. You’re supported by a dedicated Project Manager, module-specific experts, and data specialists who handle migration, configuration, and testing so your transition doesn’t interrupt payroll.

Würk’s native accounting integrations include Oracle NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, and Sage Intacct. Through API-based integrations, Würk pushes payroll data and journal entries to your accounting software automatically, which removes manual data entry and reduces the risk of reconciliation errors at month-end.

Würk combines payroll, payroll tax filing, HR, time, and benefits in one platform built for compliance-centric businesses. You get accurate pay and tax filings, support for complex setups like multi-EIN and unbanked payroll, vetted banking partners, and a dedicated team that knows the regulations your business faces.
