Get started with Wagepoint

Driven by a mission to champion small businesses in Canada and make a positive impact across our communities, Wagepoint is excited to announce a new partnership with our friends at Alterna Savings. 🎉

The partnership allows Alterna members to enjoy exclusive pricing for Wagepoint’s simple payroll software, empowering them to spend less time on complicated payroll calculations, and more time on what truly matters — sparking growth for their small businesses and good vibes in their neighbourhoods.

A collaboration in giving back.

Known as “the good in banking,” Alterna is a like-minded partner for Wagepoint. They’re the ninth-largest credit union in Canada, with more than 210,000 members and more than 40 locations. But what’s truly “big” is their reputation for growing small businesses and uplifting their local communities. 

These core values are also shared by Wagepoint, whether it’s hosting webinars to teach small businesses about everything from payroll to employment law, supporting STEM education for Indigenous children or sponsoring a little league team.

“Credit unions are to small business banking what Wagepoint is to small business payroll,” says Shrad Rao, CEO of Wagepoint. “Like us, Alterna is customer-obsessed and community-focused. Together, we are committed to delivering exceptional service and making an even bigger impact on the communities we serve. The co-operative principles of credit unions are a perfect match for our own values, and we’re excited to join forces to continue supporting small businesses across Canada in their communities.” 

A payroll partner members can bank on. 😉

More than 1,700 credit union members across Canada trust Wagepoint for their payroll. We’re proud to say that we’re already serving Alterna members today, who count on us for: 

  • A simple and intuitive user experience built just for small businesses 
  • Transparent pricing; and 
  • Fast and friendly Canadian support that treats each small business like our only customer. Plus, a dedicated Credit Union Partner Specialist (that’s Jeff! 👋) who brings 10 years of credit union experience to the table. 

“We’re thrilled that Wagepoint has extended access to their software at an exclusive price to our members! They’ve consistently demonstrated just how intricately they understand the needs of small business owners,” says Rob Paterson, President & CEO of Alterna. “By providing easy access to comprehensive payroll solutions and simplified processes, they’ve empowered hundreds of entrepreneurs across Canada to grow and be great. This partnership is shared values and purpose-driven business in action.”

We look forward to serving many more with this exciting partnership. For more information about Wagepoint for Alterna members, please visit the Alterna website. (If you’re not a member, please visit our website.)
