Built for accuracy, control, and visibility

Every payroll run follows a structured workflow. Every calculation is deterministic. Every shilling is traceable.

Deterministic computation

Every payroll run produces identical, auditable results. Country adapters encode local tax rules. No silent rounding. No unexplained differences between runs.

Hybrid execution

Choose auto-disburse with funding-gated payouts, or export bank files and settle through your bank. Control when and how money moves — per category, per run.

Ledger-grade visibility

Double-entry journal entries for every payroll event. Per-category settlement tracking from gross to net to bank. Complete audit trail across periods.

From gross to settled, every step tracked

Payroll moves through a structured lifecycle. Each stage has gates, approvals, and artifacts. Nothing settles until everything balances.

1

Setup

Configure company, pay schedules, and import employees from CSV.

2

Compute

Run payroll with deterministic tax and deduction calculations.

3

Review

Inspect every line item. Compare against prior periods.

4

5

Disburse

Fund and release payments via mobile money, bank transfer, or file export.

6

Settle

Track settlement per category — net pay, statutory, third-party.

7

Reconcile

Double-entry journals posted. Trial balance updated. Period closed.

Employee lifecycle, structured

From first day to final pay, every employee event flows through the same controlled system.

Onboarding

Import from CSV or add individually. Guided wizard captures tax IDs, bank details, and pay structure.

Leave management

Statutory leave types pre-configured per country. Custom policies, half-day support, approval workflows, and balance tracking.

Exit management

Trigger exit flow with automatic final pay computation, leave balance settlement, and outstanding deduction recovery.

Final pay computation

Pro-rated salary, accrued leave, terminal benefits, and outstanding loan recovery — computed deterministically.

Deduction management

Loan repayments, salary advances, savings, and custom deductions. Fixed or percentage-based with remaining balance tracking.

Document generation

PDF payslips, tax certificates, statutory summaries, and compliance reports generated automatically per period.

Settlement you can trace

Every payment category settles independently. The run completes only when everything is accounted for.

Bank transfers

Direct bank payments with real-time status tracking. Funding verified before any disbursement begins.

Mobile money

Pay employees via mobile money with webhook-driven status updates and automatic retry on failure.

Statutory remittances

PAYE, NSSF, LST, and other statutory obligations tracked as separate settlement categories with filing-ready reports.

Third-party deductions

Lender remittances, union dues, and custom deductions aggregated and settled independently with reconciliation reports.

Settlement tracking

Per-category status dashboard showing pending, in-progress, and settled amounts. Nothing falls through the cracks.

Remittance files

Bank-ready batch files, statutory filing exports, and lender remittance schedules generated from finalized payroll data.

Controls that prevent errors before they cost you

Built-in guardrails enforce correctness at every step. No silent failures. No unauthorized payments.

Variance detection

Automatic comparison against prior periods. Unusual changes in gross, net, or headcount are flagged before approval.

Duplicate payment prevention

Idempotency keys on every disbursement. The system will not pay the same employee twice for the same period.

Deduction cap enforcement

Deductions cannot exceed configured limits. Net pay floors are enforced. Over-deduction is blocked at computation time.

Approval workflows

Payroll runs require explicit approval before finalization. Role-based gates prevent unauthorized changes after lock.

Audit logging

Every operation logged with actor identity, timestamp, and change context. Immutable trail from employee creation to settlement.

Role-based access

Six roles with 25 granular permissions covering payroll, disbursement, leave, deductions, statutory, ledger, and audit.

Employees see what they need

A separate, mobile-friendly portal where employees access their payroll information without bothering HR.

Self-service portal

Employees sign in with a magic link. No passwords to manage. Separate app with mobile-optimized interface.

Digital payslips

PDF payslips available immediately after payroll finalization. Downloadable for any period.

Leave requests

Submit leave requests with date selection and type. Managers approve or reject with optional comments.

Leave balances

Real-time balance for every leave type. Accruals, usage, and carry-over visible at a glance.

Personal information

View and request updates to bank details, tax information, and contact details through the portal.

Deduction history
