What you get

Payroll that matches how Ugandan employers actually pay staff

Generic international payroll tools are not built for Ugandan statutory requirements. We build payroll that is.

PAYE, NSSF & LST automation

Tax bands, NSSF contributions, and Local Service Tax are calculated automatically and update when rates change - no manual recalculation.

Mobile money & bank disbursement

Pay staff directly via MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, or bank transfer in a single payroll run.

Digital payslips

Staff receive payslips by email, SMS, or a self-service portal - no more printing and hand-delivering payslips every month.

Leave & attendance integration

Leave balances, overtime, and attendance feed directly into payroll calculations, removing manual reconciliation between HR and finance.

Payroll reporting

Full payroll registers, statutory filing reports, and cost-centre breakdowns ready for management and auditors.

Statutory compliance updates

When URA or NSSF rates change, we update your system - you do not have to track tax law changes yourself.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Does the system stay updated when URA changes PAYE bands?

Yes. Statutory rate updates (PAYE bands, NSSF rate, LST) are part of our support agreement, so your payroll stays compliant without you tracking legal changes yourself.

Can staff be paid via mobile money instead of bank transfer?

Yes. We integrate MTN Mobile Money and Airtel Money for salary disbursement, which is common for field staff and businesses without full banking coverage for their team.

Can payroll connect to our existing accounting or HR system?

Yes. We typically integrate payroll with your accounting system so salary costs post automatically, and with attendance/leave systems so payroll reflects actual hours worked.
