PayCycle provides an online payroll platform tailored to small businesses and the accounting professionals who support them. Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, with a second office in Schaumburg, Illinois, the company aims to move payroll away from paper-based processes by offering an end-to-end online workflow. Founded in 1999 by René Lacerte and Martin Gates, former colleagues at Intuit, PayCycle sought to create a more accessible and affordable way to manage payroll. The platform guides users through the entire payroll lifecycle online, covering setup, paychecks, and W-2s. The company serves small businesses and their accounting partners, addressing the need for a streamlined, paperless payroll experience. In 2011, PayCycle announced an integration with Xero to transfer payroll data into Xero with a single action.
