The Square Payroll team mission is to build the next generation of payroll solutions that empower sellers and their teams to thrive together. Now more than ever, sellers need to search for ways that they can support and provide value for their staff as well as for their business. By moving money faster, more frequently and more reliably than any other payroll provider, we can help employers and employees have more control over their cash flow.
