Parking Pass deduction

We are currently using Square Payroll.

 

At some employers I have worked for in the past, there are payroll options for things like Parking Permits that can be withheld throughout the month. The company then would provide me the pass. 

 

Is there a way to set up a deduction the employees can opt-in for things like this to be withheld from paychecks?

Hey @devneck.  Your question has two answers. 

 

First, you can set up ANY post-tax deduction you wish for each employee, for any purpose.  To do this you edit your Team Member, click on the Payroll tab, then:

 

  1. click Edit next to the “Benefits and garnishments” section.
  2. Click the “Add garnishment” button
  3. Click on the “Select post-tax deduction” box and select “Create new.”
  4. Give it a name and description.  Change the calculation method type and amount and, optionally, add an annual limit.
  5. Save the deduction and the employee.

Now each time your run payroll the deduction will be automatically applied to their check and listed on their check stub.

 

Secondly, at this time, we must set this up for our employees.  They can not opt-in to things like this.  If you want Square to consider adding an opt-in feature, you’ll need to head over to the Ideate Board and submit a feature request.
