About

FRIDAY is an all-in-one payroll and HR platform built for small business owners (1–100 employees) who want reliable payroll without the complexity or hidden fees of legacy providers like ADP, Paychex, or Gusto. Run full-service payroll in seconds — pay W-2 employees and 1099 contractors via direct deposit or check, handle hourly wages, salaries, bonuses, and reimbursements, and automate federal, state, and local tax filings including W-2s, 1099s, and quarterly filings.

FRIDAY also includes built-in time tracking with an AI-powered clock in/out kiosk, PTO and time-off management, employee onboarding, and integrated team communication. Sync seamlessly with QuickBooks, Xero, and other accounting software. Manage your team on the go from any device.

Whether you run a restaurant, retail shop, salon, contracting business, medical practice, or growing startup, FRIDAY replaces spreadsheets, timesheets, and expensive payroll services with one simple, affordable app.
