* In the ''Literature/{{Wyatt}}'' novels, VillainProtagonist Wyatt used to like payroll jobs, as the risk to reward ratio was extremely good. With the demise of cash payrolls, that avenue closes off. In ''Paydirt'', he attempts a robbery on an armoured car delivering one of the last cash payrolls going: being delivered to workers on a remote pipeline project in the outback where there is no easy access to banks or electronic funds transfer. Unfortunately for Wyatt, things do not run entirely to plan.

* One of the ship types sailing around in ''VideoGame/SidMeiersPirates'' is the payroll ship, which sails between two cities belonging to the same nation.
