The Checkmate Advantage

Make Your Winning Move...with Checkmate!

Checkmate is an independent provider of comprehensive payroll services and workforce management solutions. Founded in 1994, we serve more than 500 clients in greater New Hampshire, are growing rapidly, and are actively involved in the communities we serve.

Our staff is readily accessible and very knowledgeable – most have been with the company for at least five years and the remainder have been brought on since then to serve our steadily growing client base.

All of our clients work exclusively with one of our CSR’s – you will get to know them and they will get to know you – establishing connections between our company and yours, which helps ensure long term client relationships.

We work with organizations of all sizes and provide payroll tax reporting services in any state that our clients require.

Checkmate provides extra customer value in many ways.

• By working with Checkmate, your money stays in the local economy and goes to pay NH employees, many of whom may also be your customers.

• Our services allow you to become more sustainable through increased efficiencies in existing business processes – via an end-to-end workforce management platform and portal that handles your payroll, time and labor management and HRIS. This one stop solution will save you money, time and resources that can then be invested elsewhere. We can even provide a completely paperless payroll solution. 

• You get access to a network of other local, socially responsible businesses that offer complimentary services like employee benefits, retirement planning, HR consulting and business banking. 

• Checkmate provides your employees with an understanding of the total cost of their compensation package. This includes intuitive pay statements that show employees the cost for any employer paid benefits, such as health insurance.

• We save you money without sacrificing service or quality. The end result is – better technology and customer service, and transparent, simplified pricing. We are able to do this because we are an independent, private company who only answers to our clients. We have less overhead – a small, experienced and stable team dedicated to what they do instead of a large executive team, cold-calling sales force, and high turnover call center staff.
