🧭 About Our Founder

From Casual Accounting to

Command-Level Payroll

Al Wagner didn’t follow the typical path and that’s exactly why he built something different.

A faith-based entrepreneur and licensed CPA from 1994 thru 2020, Al launched his first firm, The Casual Accountant, back in 1999. It wasn’t just a catchy name. It reflected his belief that professional service could be delivered without pretense, rooted in relationship and integrity. That firm evolved into Independent Accounting Office (IAO) after relocating from Pennsylvania to Marco Island, Florida.

By 2006, Al was experimenting with payroll tech. A national provider was never the answer — not for his clients, and not for the mission he was called to lead. A friend-turned-client insisted: “No, Al. You’re doing our payroll.” That moment sparked what would become IAOPayroll, and soon after, TruPayroll, a dedicated payroll service that eventually expanded to serve hundreds of employers and thousands of employees across 24 states.

But like any mission with momentum, the landscape changed. The core processing platform was slated for retirement, and with it, came the opportunity to build something newer, stronger, more agile.

The launch of OnlinePayroll.Services (OPS) marked the next phase in a journey that began decades earlier — one shaped not only by technical expertise but by unwavering conviction. With a modernized payroll platform and a mission to serve employers directly, OPS now brings the same power and precision Al once offered exclusively to accountants and bookkeepers.

But OPS isn’t just about payroll. It’s about:

Command-level clarity over your operations
Protection for the people who power your business
Execution that’s never late, never sloppy, and never leaves you guessing
Infrastructure built for resilience, transparency, and scale

From preparing audit packages as a young accountant to designing full-scale operational systems, Al’s mission has always been the same: to help others operate with confidence.

This is OnlinePayroll.Services.
Founded in faith. Forged in service. Built for control.

OPS Brand Story

Mission-Ready

In a world where payroll mistakes can compromise morale, trust, and mission success, OnlinePayroll.Services (OPS) was founded to deliver something rare: total control and tactical confidence in your payroll operations.

Our story begins not in a boardroom, but in the trenches — with payroll professionals and business owners who were tired of the chaos. Tired of outdated systems, patchwork integrations, and service providers who overpromised but vanished when the stakes were high. We built OPS to be different. To act like a true force multiplier — not just a service, but a strategic partner.

OPS was forged with a single objective:

To protect the people who power your business by delivering flawless, fortified payroll.

Every feature, every integration, and every support channel is built around this principle. We believe payroll should run silently in the background, like a stealth operation — precise, secure, and never in your way. You should always feel in command — never in the dark.

Our crest tells our story:

Secure Communication — We process payroll through encrypted systems with real-time transparency.
Targeted Accuracy — No errors, no reprocessing. Just clean execution and confidence.
Operational Readiness — Our systems are built for resilience, uptime, and proactive protection.
Ranked Security — With layered access control and audit trails, you’re always mission-compliant.

Whether you’re a solo entrepreneur or a fast-scaling company, OPS equips you with the tools to run payroll like a professional unit — with control, clarity, and command.

This isn’t just payroll.
This is OPS.
Mission. Accomplished.
