Fred Sobke

Owner | BajaMex

"We've been with PaySource for years and are thrilled with how easy it is to use, the professionalism of their team, and their quick responses. Before PaySource, our previous two large payroll companies made frequent and costly errors, making our work more difficult and leaving us feeling like just another number. Since switching to PaySource, everything has been smooth. Whenever we call or email, someone answers promptly and knows us by name. This is something we have come to appreciate and would highly recommend PaySource!"

| Tri City Drywall

"It has been our pleasure to work with PaySource since 1998. Since they have been processing payroll for us, our organization has grown from approximately 15 employees to over 100, processing over 3.5 million dollars in employee wages last year. They provide us with personal attention that is shown at every level, from customer service to the timely filing of all payroll tax returns. I have also recommended their services to other Native American Associations who have retained their services and have experienced the same level of professionalism as we have."
