Wave Payroll Terms of Service – United States

Effective as of: January 10, 2025

We’re updating these terms (which take effect on January 10, 2024) to align with the introduction of our new Payroll partner, CheckHQ. Here you will find their details but rest assured, while CheckHQ will support certain aspects of our operations, Wave will continue to serve your needs.

_{A note from Wave:}

Hi, it’s me again—time for another excellent Wave agreement. This updated version will clarify our payroll service and exactly what it is you’re agreeing to by using the service. My goal is a clear set of terms that you agree to when you use Wave, then a smaller (and hopefully more digestible) agreement for each additional service you choose to use. As with all of our agreements, I’ve provided my plain English take on the document. I’m not a lawyer and the “simple terms” do NOT constitute advice of any kind, legal or otherwise. The actual agreement is lawyer-approved, legally binding, and in some cases ALL CAPS. Please, read and understand it before using this service.
