HR and payroll software for retail
One easy-to-use HR software to help you hire, schedule and retain employees
Why Paycom
Because your employees deserve a top-shelf experience
Your industry loses talent faster than any U.S. job sector. From a lack of flexible schedules to disappointing career development, retail employees — and even their managers — won’t stick around for a subpar experience. And when your best people leave, you can only hope to replace them with exceptional candidates.
With stakes this high, your HR tech can’t just cover the basics. Paycom’s truly single HR and payroll software empowers employees with a consumer-level self-service experience. Our easy-to-use mobile app lets your staff easily manage their schedules and chart their own development journey, all while your managers get convenient tools to help them lead from the sales floor — not the back office.

HOW WE HELP
Keep your employees happy and thriving
In retail, high workforce satisfaction boosts customer satisfaction. When your people are disengaged from their work, your clientele quickly lose interest in your establishment. From their first day and throughout their daily routine, Paycom simplifies life for employees with an easy-to-use, self-service experience that prioritizes their convenience.
Employee-first payroll
With a high risk of turnover, even just one payroll error pushes talent away. Our payroll experience spots errors and guides employees to fix them before submission — and before a preventable mistake sparks a walkout.
Pay your people their way
In retail, flexibility is hard to come by. Why not provide it when you can? With Paycom, you can pay employees through a convenient payroll card. Plus, you can give them access to earned wages daily to cover bills and unexpected expenses, instead of making them wait for the next payday to roll around.
Make growth part of your culture
When employees have no shot to move up or develop themselves, it won’t take them long to look for work elsewhere. Our learning management system helps give their career a fighting chance. It makes it easy to build and deliver mobile-friendly training, so they can upskill when it’s convenient for them.
A priceless first impression
Your applications, interviews and onboarding set a precedent for a new hire’s entire job. If it doesn’t live up to their expectations, it could sour their entire experience. Our hiring tools make it easy for you to post jobs, schedule interviews and quickly prime them for success. With Paycom, let new hires complete important onboarding documents and customer service training before Day 1, so they can start contributing immediately.
Hire with confidence
In retail, the wrong hire could open you up to theft, fraud and potential legal liability. Our background checks service lets you easily and comprehensively verify your job candidates are who they say they are — within just a few days.
SIMPLIFIED SCHEDULING
Ensure coverage without losing employees
In retail, sometimes you have to make tough calls. And when you’re facing a busy shopping season, it’s natural to need more help. But when unclear scheduling leaves employees in the dark, it quickly tests their patience and ignites burnout. With Paycom’s mobile app, employees have instant access to upcoming shifts and more, so they always know what’s expected.
Stop unpredictability
Getting the runaround in shift scheduling can sour your sales team. Our scheduling tool helps dispel the confusion by giving them access to their schedules in real time. Plus, they can easily swap shifts and even input their availability, so managers know exactly when they can schedule an employee.
True mobility for managers
Your supervisors can’t support their teams when essential tasks tie them to their desks. Our mobile app for managers simplifies editing and approving timecards, punch change requests, schedules and more. This empowers your leaders to focus on sales and service, not endless admin tasks.
The best way to build retail schedules
It isn’t enough to just assign someone a shift. You also have to juggle a complicated combination of shift and employee types. But don’t worry. Our scheduling tool makes it simple to create and edit templates, assign groups of employees to recurring shifts and see exactly who’s available to serve customers.
