Payroll Services in Frisco, TX
Frisco is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, ranked the most affordable among America’s fastest-growing cities by GoBankingRates in 2025. That growth means more small businesses are opening, more employees are being hired, and more owners are realizing that running payroll correctly is not something you want to figure out on your own. Between federal payroll tax deposits, quarterly filings, W-2 preparation, and correctly classifying workers, the consequences of getting payroll wrong range from IRS penalties to employee lawsuits.
Our Services
Our Payroll Services for Frisco Clients
When you work with us for payroll, here is exactly what you get:
- Complete payroll processing: We calculate wages, withholdings, and deductions for every pay period, whether you pay weekly, biweekly, or monthly.
- Federal and state payroll tax filings: We prepare and file Form 941 (quarterly federal tax return), Form 940 (annual federal unemployment tax), and Texas Workforce Commission unemployment filings on your behalf.
- Year-end W-2 and 1099 preparation: Every January, we generate and distribute W-2s for employees and 1099-NEC forms for independent contractors, with copies filed to the Social Security Administration and IRS.
- Direct deposit setup and management: We coordinate direct deposit so your Frisco employees receive their pay on time without you writing checks.
- New hire reporting: Texas requires employers to report new hires to the Texas Attorney General’s office within 20 days. We handle this for every new employee you bring on.
- Worker classification guidance: We help you determine whether your workers should be classified as W-2 employees or 1099 contractors, which is one of the most common (and costly) mistakes Frisco business owners make as they scale up.
Our monthly bookkeeping and payroll processing packages run $300 to $600 per month, depending on the number of employees and pay frequency. That price includes bank reconciliation alongside payroll, so your books and your payroll stay in sync all year.

Payroll Services Questions from Frisco Clients
How much do payroll services cost in Frisco?
Our monthly bookkeeping and payroll processing packages range from $300 to $600 per month. The exact price depends on how many employees you have and how often you run payroll. We quote a flat monthly rate during your free consultation so there are no surprises. For Frisco businesses with five to fifteen employees, most clients fall in the middle of that range.
Can you handle payroll tax filings for my Frisco business?
Yes. We handle all federal payroll tax filings, including quarterly Form 941 deposits and annual Form 940 unemployment tax returns. We also file with the Texas Workforce Commission for state unemployment taxes. Texas has no state income tax, so there is no state withholding to worry about, but federal payroll obligations still apply to every Frisco employer.
What is the difference between a 1099 contractor and a W-2 employee?
A W-2 employee works under your direction, uses your tools, and follows your schedule. You withhold federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare from their pay. A 1099 contractor controls how and when they complete the work, and you do not withhold taxes from their payments. The IRS uses a multi-factor test to determine classification, and misclassifying employees as contractors can trigger back taxes, penalties, and interest. Many Frisco businesses in construction, real estate, and professional services run into this issue as they grow. We help you classify workers correctly from the start.
How fast can you set up payroll for my Frisco business?
For most small businesses, we can have payroll fully set up within one to two weeks after your initial consultation. That includes gathering your employee information, setting up direct deposit, configuring tax withholdings, and registering with the Texas Workforce Commission if you have not already done so. If you are a new Frisco business that also needs an LLC formed, we handle that too: LLC formation is $350 plus the $300 state filing fee to the Texas Secretary of State.
Do I need payroll services if I only have a few employees?
Yes. Even with one employee, you are required to withhold federal income tax, Social Security (6.2%), and Medicare (1.45%) from their wages, deposit those withholdings with the IRS on a schedule the IRS assigns you, and file quarterly and annual returns. Many Frisco business owners with two or three employees try to handle payroll themselves and end up with late deposit penalties. Our monthly packages start at $300, which is almost always less than the cost of a single IRS penalty for late filing.
Can you also handle my bookkeeping and tax preparation?
Absolutely. Most of our Frisco payroll clients bundle payroll with monthly bookkeeping and annual tax preparation. When we handle all three, your financial data flows seamlessly from your books to your payroll to your tax return. There is no miscommunication between separate providers. S-Corp and partnership tax returns run $1,000 to $2,000, and sole proprietor returns (Schedule C) run $750 to $1,200. We can discuss the full package during your free consultation.
