More exciting news to share with you: Wave is now getting into small business payroll.
Since our launch in November, we've focused our in-house development resources exclusively on our accounting application. That way:
- We've been able to keep our attention on features that matter to the greatest number of Wave Accounting customers; and
- We've been able to keep Wave Accounting 100% free.
At the same time, we knew that some portion of our Wave Accounting customers would also need a payroll solution. While evaluating our options on that front, we came across a great startup that was doing for payroll what we were doing for accounting: Taking something complicated and expensive, and making it easy and affordable. That startup was called Small Payroll, and we're thrilled to announce today that we've acquired it and will be relaunching it shortly as Wave Payroll.
We're also thrilled that Sean Walberg, the founder of Small Payroll, is joining the Wave family. He'll spearhead all new development on Wave Payroll, and is already busy integrating it into the accounting application.
