ZenPayroll's total funding to date is $26.1 million. Since launching publicly in December 2012, ZenPayroll has set itself apart from incumbent, traditional payroll providers by introducing the most modern, affordable and easy-to-use payroll solution for small businesses. In 2013 the company released numerous features for employers, such as "autopilot" payroll and spot bonuses, as well as employee-facing enhancements like self-onboarding, visually informative pay stubs and ZenPayroll Giving, which enables people to donate to nonprofit organizations directly from their paychecks. Today, ZenPayroll is processing over $400 million in annual payroll for small businesses of all kinds, including bakeries, law firms, flower shops, hotels, dentist offices, restaurants, and more.

We particularly appreciate the actions certain states’ insurance regulators1 have taken to instruct carriers to keep customers informed, increase the availability of testing kits, encourage utilization of telemedicine and enforce the coverage of surprise medical bills. State insurance regulators have a unique role to play in ensuring the most vulnerable American businesses and people continue to stay healthy and have peace of mind during this time. Small businesses are disproportionately affected by the shelter-in-place measures popping up nationwide, and their livelihoods are at stake. We are writing to you today to urge you to take additional specific, immediate action to support small businesses across the country and the families that are employed by, and depend on them for health insurance coverage.

  • The State of the PEO Industry 2016: Markets, Value, and Trends
    NAPEO White Paper Series The State of the PEO Industry 2016: Markets, Value, and Trends By Laurie Bassi and Dan McMurrer McBassi & Company September 2016 The State of the PEO Industry 2016: Markets, Value, and Trends This report on the state of the PEO industry in 2016 is the fourth in NAPEO’s series of white papers designed to help the general public and small business owners better understand the economic impact and value of the PEO industry. It explores three main topics: the market for PEO services, the value that PEOs create for their clients, and trends currently shaping the PEO industry. It uses a variety of sources, including external data (from governmental and non- governmental sources), econometric analysis, and interviews with industry experts by the authors. It also draws on key articles, laws/regulations, surveys, and reports. Quick Summary The Market for PEO Services • There are 1.1 million businesses in the United States that have between 10 and 99 employees, which represents the target market for most PEOs (the average PEO client has 22.5 employees). • As of 2013 (the most recent year for which data are available), the number of small businesses in the U.S. was still 7 percent below its pre-recession peak. • Small business optimism has recovered significantly since the recession, but is still approximately 4 percent below its 42-year average, according to the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB). • Healthcare, taxes, and regulation—exactly the issues that PEOs help clients address—are consistently reported as the top concerns of small businesses.
