Software or Employer

Same tools. Different name on the paperwork.

Payroll software and an employer of record both run your payroll, and the screens look much the same. The difference shows up on the day something goes wrong, in whose name is on the filing.

Federal tax under 280E, state rules amended since they were written, and most providers saying no.

Common Questions

The questions we get asked first.

What changes, what does not, and what it costs. If yours is not here, the full list is one click away, and you can always just ask us.

Do I still control my employees?

Yes. You retain full authority over hiring, management, scheduling, performance, and termination decisions. Roll With Paid. operates behind the scenes, handling payroll, compliance, benefits, and employment administration, without interfering in day-to-day operations.

What does it cost?

Two parts. A service rate applied to gross wages, quoted by workers’ compensation classification code because a budtender and a grower do not carry the same risk, and an optional flat monthly HR retainer based on headcount. The rate sits on top of wages rather than replacing them, so a 16.94% rate on a $10,000 payroll is $1,694. Our pricing page shows illustrative rates by code and a calculator that separates the two. Your own rate comes after we have seen your payroll history and census.

See the rate structure

Will my employees know anything has changed?

No. Your employees continue to report to you, follow your policies, and operate within your culture. Roll With Paid. supports the administrative side of employment without disrupting your internal operations or team dynamics.

Are you only in Minnesota?

We’re Minnesota-based with deep expertise in MN-specific regulations, but our infrastructure supports multi-state operations. If you’re operating or expanding beyond Minnesota, we can support that.

How do we get started?

After an initial call, Roll With Paid. handles the transition of payroll and employment administration into our system, minimizing disruption while ensuring accuracy and compliance from day one. Most clients are fully onboarded within one to two pay cycles.

“We remember where you came from, and we’re building where you’re going.”

For businesses that have grown through grit and are ready for infrastructure to match.
