New York, NY (PRWEB) December 30, 2010
SurePayroll and LifeWay Christian Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention today announced that Digital Church, a cloud computing initiative launched by LifeWay in March, is offering churches an online payroll service through SurePayroll.
The service is being offered under SurePayroll's Business Online Payroll brand, which accommodates clergy payroll needs, such as special W2 reporting rules for clergy housing allowances.
LifeWay customers can process payroll whenever and wherever they have Internet service. The payroll entry process takes just minutes to complete. Users simply log in and enter their payroll data. The service handles the rest, including calculating wages and deductions, depositing and filing payroll taxes, and paying employees through direct deposit.
Complete customer support is accessible by phone or email six days a week, and payroll experts will gladly walk church personnel through the payroll enrollment process to ensure setup is accurate for the rules and regulations applicable to clergy payroll.
"Churches need to be careful when selecting a payroll service, as not all accommodate special IRS requirements for clergy compensation," says SurePayroll Vice President of Business Development Cal Steinhoff. "Business Online Payroll can give churches peace of mind, as it is designed to meet their specific taxation regulations."
As the country's largest full-service online payroll company, SurePayroll processes payroll for more than 30,000 small business customers and nonprofit organizations.
"Churches differ from for-profit businesses in regards to tax codes and payroll rules and regulations, but not in the fact that they want to pay their staff members and employees accurately and on-time," says Matt Morris, Project Manager of Digital Church for LifeWay. "Through Business Online Payroll, they can eliminate the hassles inherent in processing payroll and instead spend their time focused on ministry."
Through Digital Church, LifeWay is now offering Business Online Payroll powered by SurePayroll to new and existing customers. To learn more or sign up, visit lifeway. com/digitalchurch or call 866.311.1416.
