Switching from Rippling to OnPayVerified Sep 23, 2026

Quick verdict: Move to OnPay if you don’t need Rippling’s IT device management or modular platform, and want a fully published, self-serve price instead of a sales-quoted contract.

Switching Cost & Friction Estimator

Most buyers only budget for the new subscription. This estimates the hidden labor, data-cleanup, and retraining cost of actually making the switch.

Estimate assumes: 1 hour of data-mapping/cleaning labor per 2,000 records, a blended $75/hr ops rate, tiered migration & cleaning tooling fees, and 4 hours of retraining per seat at a $45/hr fully-loaded rate.

    First month free

    A real trial period.

    How the migration actually works

    You lose Rippling’s IT device management, benefits and spend-management modules if you relied on them.

    StepWhat you do
    1Gather payroll and tax recordsExport year-to-date payroll reports, tax filings and employee records from the old provider.
    2Sign up for OnPayStart OnPay’s first-month-free trial and set up your company profile.
    3Rebuild your pay schedule and deductionsRecreate your pay schedule, benefit deductions and any custom earnings or deduction types in the new tool.
    4Re-enter employee and contractor detailsAdd bank details, tax withholding elections and pay rates for each worker — sensitive data that never transfers automatically.
    5Run a parallel test payrollRun one payroll cycle in the new tool alongside the old one to confirm the numbers match before fully switching.
    6Cancel the old planOnce a real payroll cycle has run cleanly in the new tool, cancel the old subscription.

    What this path doesn’t do for you:

    Rippling’s IT device management, spend management and other modules have no OnPay equivalent — plan a separate tool for those if you still need them.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does OnPay import Rippling data?

    No. Export what you can and re-enter employee and payroll details manually.

    Will I save money?

    Likely, if you no longer need Rippling’s IT/spend-management modules — OnPay’s published price is $49 + $6/worker.

    Do I lose IT device management?

    Yes, OnPay is payroll and HR only; keep a separate tool if you still need device management.

    Will my tax filings carry over cleanly?

    Payroll providers don’t transfer tax-filing history automatically. Export year-to-date payroll reports and prior W-2/1099 data, and time the switch around a quarter or year boundary where possible to keep filings clean.

    Engineer by training, operator by experience, marketer by choice. Bill spent nine years as an engineer at HP, was COO of Auctiva (the number one third-party selling platform on eBay, past 200,000 users) and ran Google’s $70M/year search syndication partnership at Alot.com. Then he spent 13 years building his own web properties with his own money at stake. He has bought, trialled, integrated and cancelled more SaaS tools than he can count, and started HelpCompare because the real cost of switching tools is the part nobody covers.
