CheckHQ offers embedded payroll services tailored for software platforms in the fintech sector. Their primary product is a payroll system that can be integrated into existing software, allowing businesses to create and manage their own payroll services. This integration helps platforms like Homebase and Housecall Pro enhance their offerings and retain customers by providing payroll solutions directly to their users. Unlike traditional payroll services, CheckHQ focuses on partnerships, supplying the necessary back-end technology while the partner platforms handle the customer-facing aspects. This approach enables quicker market entry and scalability, making it easier for platforms to add payroll services without significant upfront investment. The goal of CheckHQ is to help its partners generate new revenue streams and improve customer engagement through seamless payroll integration.
