If you’re a [small business owner in Canada](https://www.payworks.ca/solutions/small-business), you already know the drill: between keeping your team paid accurately and on time, staying on top of ever-changing compliance requirements, and actually running your business, the to-do list never seems to get shorter. That’s exactly why we’re excited to share some news that’s all about making things a little easier.

**Payworks is now an official small business referral partner of CIBC Business Banking for payroll and workforce management solutions across Canada.**

## What does this collaboration mean for small business owners?

 Through this new relationship, CIBC Business Banking representatives can [refer their small business clients directly to Payworks](https://www.payworks.ca/fr/a-propos/medias/article/2026/05/08/payworks-s'associe-aux-services-bancaires-aux-pme-cibc-en-tant-que-partenaire-de-r%C3%A9f%C3%A9rence-pour-les-petites-entreprises) where they can gain access to payroll, HR, time and attendance, and analytics tools they need to run their business with confidence. It’s all backed by the expert service we’re known for.

It’s a collaboration that makes sense: two proudly Canadian organizations, both deeply committed to helping entrepreneurs succeed, coming together to offer small business clients a more connected experience.

## Why payroll support matters more than ever for small businesses

Payroll compliance is one of the most time-sensitive and quickly evolving responsibilities on any business owner’s plate. Legislation changes, deadlines shift, and the consequences of getting it wrong can be significant. For small business owners who are already wearing a dozen hats, offloading that complexity to a trusted partner can be a game-changer.

Whether you’ve got a single employee or a growing team, Payworks delivers workforce management tools purpose-built for the Canadian market without the complexity or overhead of enterprise-focused platforms. And because we have offices and client service teams across the country, you’re always supported by local payroll experts who understand your community.

## A natural fit

> *“Small businesses are the backbone of the Canadian economy, and they deserve partners who understand the nuances of running a business and helping it grow” said Matt Sachkiw, Chief Operating Officer at Payworks. “Teaming up with CIBC Business Banking is a natural fit — both organizations are deeply committed to the success of Canadian entrepreneurs, and together we can offer small business clients a more connected, seamless experience across their payroll and workforce management needs.”*

With CIBC Business Banking’s extensive coast-to-coast-to-coast presence and Payworks’ [national coverage](https://www.payworks.ca/contact) paired with local expertise, this collaboration is designed to meet small businesses wherever they operate in Canada.
