Gusto Release Notes

Give your solopreneur clients expert guidance on two of their biggest financial decisions—right inside Gusto Pro.

No new login. Just answers, built right in.

Your finances, now in your pocket. Build a branded invoice with a shareable pay link right from your phone, and let customers pay by card or bank transfer—with automatic reminders that chase late payments so you don’t have to. Need to pay a bill? Cover it by card or bank transfer, even where cards aren’t accepted, and schedule payments now, later, or on repeat. Money in, money out—managed from your phone and included in all Gusto plans.

Gusto 401(k) now lives right inside your payroll, and that connection is already unlocking new ways to build your plan. With your payroll data on hand, hours of service can now count as an eligibility criteria, which can be a great fit for teams with hourly workers and more turnover. And plans can go live in as little as five days, instead of the weeks it used to take when payroll and retirement lived in separate systems.
