Rise Pricing Overview

No. According to G2 data, Rise does not offer a free plan or free trial. Users need to purchase a paid plan to access the product. Visit the seller's official pricing page for current pricing details and plan options.

Based on G2 reviews, Rise's pricing is best suited for small businesses with fewer than 50 employees, particularly Canadian companies needing payroll automation, tax filing, T4s, and ROEs without a dedicated HR team. G2 reviewers from non-profits, construction, food and beverage, financial services, and staffing consistently praise Rise's affordability and ease of use at small scale. Mid-market organizations in accounting, computer software, and hospitality also report strong value, especially those switching from ADP or Ceridian. Rise is less suited for larger enterprises or companies with Quebec payroll complexity, international workforce needs, or requirements for deep third-party integrations, where G2 reviewers note meaningful limitations.

According to G2 reviews of Rise, Rise previously offered a free tier called Rise Lite for companies under 20 employees, marketed as free for life. G2 reviewers report this tier was discontinued, with affected users migrated to paid plans starting around $30 per month plus $6 per month per employee. Multiple reviewers flagged this transition negatively, citing lack of communication and perceived deceptive practices. Rise's paid plans unlock full payroll automation, T4 and ROE generation, benefits administration, time tracking, onboarding, and compliance features. G2 data on Rise's pricing indicates no publicly listed free tier currently exists, with custom enterprise quotes available for larger organizations.

G2 reviewers broadly consider Rise good value, particularly for small businesses. Multiple reviewers cite low fees and reasonable pricing as initial draws, with one small business owner in construction noting no price hikes over two years. Reviewers in accounting and financial services highlight cost savings versus competitors like ADP and Ceridian. One mid-market reviewer praised Rise's simple fee structure with no nickel-and-diming. However, a few reviewers flag pricing as higher than local competitors, and one food and beverage mid-market reviewer reported $230 per pay run for 10 employees, comparing unfavorably to Ceridian at $90. Overall, G2 reviews of Rise's pricing skew positive for small businesses but show more mixed sentiment at scale.
