Prices in Canadian dollars, before tax. For each company choose where it's used: Online only or Windows app only (same price), or Online + Windows, synced (+$5/month).

Each business you work for is one company. For each one you choose its modules — Payroll, Scheduling, Bookkeeping, any mix — and where it's used (online, Windows or both). Payroll depends on its active employees: EMP10 up to 10, EMP20 up to 20, EMPMAX unlimited. Scheduling depends on the staff on the schedule.
50% off Payroll and Bookkeeping for one year from the day your account is created, on every company you add during that year.
