Zenefits is not a client of Guideline. Guideline pays a fee for each 401(k) client referred by Zenefits as outlined in our written solicitation arrangement with Zenefits. We'll provide additional disclosures prior to opening an account with Guideline. See our Privacy Policy to learn how we use and protect your information.

How payroll and a 401(k) work together

Our platform will securely sync your TriNet HR Platform Payroll and Guideline 401(k) data so any updates or changes will be reflected in both places automatically—saving you time and hassle.

Plan management
401(k) contributions are automatically deducted each pay run. No need to maintain deductions or manually re-enter payroll data.
Employee onboarding
When employees become eligible to join the plan, we’ll notify and enroll them on your behalf—and provide full support along the way.

Powerful plans for
businesses of any size

Our 401(k) plans come with low monthly costs and no transaction fees. So you won’t have to pay extra for plan setup, plan transfers, or 5500 prep.
