Gusto

When you connect Gusto, every payroll run syncs into Kick as a split transaction - automatically broken out into wages, payroll taxes, employee benefits, and reimbursements. No manual entry, no spreadsheets.

{% hint style="info" %} You must be an admin on your Gusto account to connect the integration. {% endhint %}

Connect Gusto

1. Go to the Accounts tab
2. Click Add account and select Gusto
3. Authenticate with your Gusto credentials and follow the prompts

Once connected, Kick begins syncing payroll data automatically.

What syncs

• Payroll runs - each run syncs as a split transaction broken out by: wages, payroll taxes, employee benefits, and other payroll expenses
• Contractor payments - domestic contractor payments sync alongside payroll runs
• Reimbursements - employee expense reimbursements sync automatically
• Departments - if you use departments in Gusto, they sync as Classes in Kick for department-level reporting

{% hint style="info" %} International contractor payments don't sync through the Gusto integration. Categorize those directly from your connected bank account. {% endhint %}

Departments and Classes

If you track departments in Gusto, those sync automatically as Classes in Kick - so you can see payroll costs broken out by department on your P&L without any extra setup.
