Proud of the Company We Keep

Founded in 2007, PayNW is privately owned and headquartered in Seattle, the heart of the Puget Sound region in the Pacific Northwest. From the beginning, we have sought to be “the third way” – more capable than the small local payroll service provider, more caring than the big box national providers. We combine deep expertise in our platform with the ability to listen and understand your unique requirements and circumstances. We have worked with more than 1,000 clients across the United States and Canada and our consistent growth and high client retention is a testament to the trust our clients put in us every day.

No company can do everything alone. We are proud of our important business partners that help us bring unique and lasting value to our clients. We also seek out vendor partners who align with our values of creating greater diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace.

We also partner with industry associations and those with allied expertise in service of our clients. A representative list of our partners include:

  • The Society for Human Resource Management
  • Independent Payroll Processors Association
  • Washington Bankers Association
  • Washington Health Care Association
  • Leading Age (Washington & Oregon)
  • Northwest Association of Independent Schools

I wanted to send a quick note to you in appreciation for all that [our client service rep] has done for us here at [our organization].  He is amazingly responsive, helpful, and an overall joy to work with.  His knowledge and ability to be a go-to person has been instrumental in our success using the PayNW system, despite us throwing a number of curveballs his way. Thank you again to PayNW and all the work that you do, and we look forward to working with you far into the future.
