Employer’s Guide to Small Business 401(k) Plans 

Why small business 401(k) plans?

A small business 401(k) helps owners boost their competitiveness, reduce tax liability, increase employee retention and satisfaction, and more through robust benefits that are tailored to their needs. And thanks to tax credits, SECURE 2.0, and other updates, setting up a retirement plan is more affordable and advantageous for owners than ever. 

Types of 401(k) plans for small businesses

Small Business 401(k)

  • Designed for a growing team that needs flexibility and diversity with contribution limits, vesting schedules, and investment opportunities. These are great for scalability and long-term sustainability.

Solo 401(k)

  • Made for the entrepreneur who doesn’t have any employees besides a spouse, this type of plan allows for higher contribution limits, maximized savings options, and simplicity for the single-person business.

Safe Harbor 401(k)

  • For businesses that may struggle with maintaining compliance, a Safe Harbor 401(k) helps by allowing owners to avoid certain nondiscrimination tests. They also offer streamlined administration, and other benefits.
What makes Ubiquity’s 401(k) plans ideal?
  • Flat fee model
  • Easy online setup and maintenance, all on one platform
  • Flexible plan designs, tailored to any small business
  • Dedicated support from real humans
401(k) vs IRA retirement plans for small businesses

State-run IRAs may seem convenient, but they can hold businesses back due to issues like limited design flexibility, less investment options and employee incentives. A 401(k) not only allows all of these but provides even more major features that enhance your business and team.

What’s the cheapest 401(k) plan for small business?

Unlike plans with an AUM (assets under management) approach, flat fee 401(k)s ensure business owners keep more of their hard-earned money with one, consistent cost, no matter how much their assets grow.

Best 401(k) plan for small businesses with less than 10 employees

Our Solo(k) and Safe Harbor plans are the most affordable and simple 401(k)s for smaller teams without sacrificing quality.

How to set up a small business 401(k) for employees
  • Step One: Choose a Plan Type
  • Step Two: Choose Your Provider
  • Step Three: Customize Your Plan
  • Step Four: Finalize Your Paperwork
  • Step Five: Educate and Enroll Your Employees
401(k) plan rules and provisions for small businesses

Business owners like yourself will need to comply with IRS regulations around nondiscrimination testing, yearly filings, and contribution limits to maintain compliance. Providers like us usually offer support like 3(16) fiduciary services to help streamline these processes.

Contribution limits for employers and employees

In 2025, employees can contribute up to $23,000 (or $30,500 for ages 50 and older). Along with taking advantage of the Employer Tax Credit, employers can contribute up to $66,000 per employee ($73,000 with catch-up contributions).

Your key takeaway

With the right provider, tools, and knowledge, adopting a 401(k) is one of the best investments you can make for your business.
