PayRecordly helps users prepare professional payroll-style records from truthful information they provide. The generator works without an account and keeps entered payroll details in the current browser session.
Use this tool only for lawful payroll and record-keeping purposes. You are responsible for confirming that wages, dates, deductions, identities, and year-to-date totals match real supporting records.
The generator keeps entered employer, employee, SSN, wage, deduction, logo, and document details in this browser. PayRecordly stores your email and minimal order/payment metadata so it can prevent duplicate charges, recover checkout status, and provide a receipt. If you explicitly select email attachments at checkout, the generated PDF and ZIP pass through PayRecordly server memory and Resend after payment and remain in your mailbox; PayRecordly does not store those files in its database or file storage. Square receives the purchase amount, payment credentials, email, and buyer-verification details needed to process the transaction. The browser keeps only an opaque checkout recovery token for this tab.
Checkout record retention: Your successful order recovery link is available for up to 7 days. PayRecordly uses checkout application data to support your receipt and optional paystub attachments. Your buyer email and detailed application checkout metadata become eligible for cleanup 90 days after completion. Cleanup is bounded and runs during later checkout activity, so redaction may occur after the 90-day mark when the service is idle. When cleanup runs, PayRecordly redacts your buyer email and revokes checkout access; minimal accounting and payment-reconciliation fields may remain for accounting and charge reconciliation. Square, Resend, and your recipient mailbox have their own retention policies.
Site analytics: PayRecordly uses Google Tag Manager to manage Google Analytics, count page views, and understand which pages visitors use. It reports the page path and standard device and approximate-location information that Google Analytics collects. It does not report your query string, and it never reports your name, email address, SSN, wage, deduction, employer, employee, or paystub content. Advertising personalization and Google Signals are turned off for this property. Google has its own privacy policy and retention practices.
Advertising measurement: PayRecordly uses Google Tag Manager to manage MNTN, a connected-TV advertising measurement service. On every page MNTN receives the page address and the referring address. When a purchase completes, it also receives the Square payment identifier, the order total, the number of paystubs, and the currency, so the purchase can be matched to an advertisement. MNTN never receives your name, email address, SSN, wage, deduction, employer, employee, or paystub content, and never receives the generated documents. MNTN has its own privacy policy and retention practices.
Correction reports: If you use the public correction form, the reply email, selected page, source URL, and report text pass through PayRecordly server memory and Resend to the private support mailbox. Do not include employee, payroll, paystub, receipt, or payment data. PayRecordly does not store correction reports in its database.
Each generated paystub costs $5.99. You may review a watermarked preview before purchase. Credit or debit card payments, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Cash App Pay are processed securely by Square, with no subscription or recurring charge. Available payment methods depend on your device and browser. Review every detail before paying. Sales are final except duplicate or processing-error charges; keep the Square receipt and use the merchant support information on it if a charge needs review.
