Gusto updated its Employer Terms of Service on May 19, 2026 with three minor changes. The table of contents added a reference to 'Referee terms increase reward exp', the payment obligations section had a character encoding correction (changing a special character to a standard apostrophe in 'Employer's'), and the arbitration clause similarly corrected the apostrophe in 'attorneys' fees'. These are formatting and encoding corrections with no operational impact on the terms themselves.
The updated Terms of Service contain only formatting and character encoding corrections. The substantive provisions regarding payment obligations, arbitration procedures, and document thresholds remain unchanged. No new rights, obligations, or restrictions were introduced.
These changes have no operational significance. The corrections address formatting errors only, leaving all substantive terms regarding employer payment obligations, arbitration procedures, and dispute thresholds unchanged.
