Irish Payroll, Done Right, From €29.99 a Month

Payslips, Revenue Submissions and My Future Fund, Handled Every Pay Day.

Hand your payroll to a specialist team that runs it on time, every time. We get your employees' tax credits from Revenue, calculate PAYE, USC and PRSI, report every pay run, and calculate My Future Fund pension contributions. In January, the new rates and the new minimum wage are set up for you.

Is Your Payroll Ready for 1 January 2027?

Add your employees' hourly rates and hours for a quick estimate. We'll flag anyone the new minimum wage affects, show where the employer PRSI threshold changes things, estimate My Future Fund contributions, and price your payroll.

EmployeeHourly rate (€)Hours a week

An estimate to help you plan, not a payroll calculation. It uses the adult minimum wage and doesn't allow for workers under 20, Class S directors, existing pension schemes or irregular hours. We confirm everything when we set up your payroll.

What Changes on 1 January 2027

Announced in Budget 2027. We set every change up in your payroll before your first pay run of the year.

€14.94

National minimum wage

Up 79 cent an hour from €14.15. Younger workers' rates rise in proportion.

€600

Employer PRSI threshold

The weekly pay level where the higher employer PRSI rate starts rises from €552.

€46,500

Standard rate band

The 20% income tax band for a single person rises from €44,000, with higher tax credits.

€30,300

USC 2% band

Extended from €28,700, so full-time minimum wage workers stay out of the 3% rate.

Budget measures are subject to the Finance Act. We apply the final figures Revenue publishes, and each employee's 2027 tax credits from Revenue.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does payroll cost?

From €29.99 + VAT a month for 1 or 2 directors, €59.99 for up to 5 employees paid monthly, and €129.99 for up to 15. Fortnightly and weekly payrolls cost a little more because there are more pay runs. Over 15 employees, we quote. Try the 2027 checker to see your price.

What changes in payroll on 1 January 2027?

The national minimum wage rises to €14.94 an hour, the weekly threshold for the higher employer PRSI rate rises to €600, the standard rate income tax band and tax credits go up, and the USC 2% band extends to €30,300. My Future Fund contributions stay at 1.5% for employers and employees. We set all of this up before your first pay run. More in our January 2027 payroll guide.

Do you handle My Future Fund?

Every package with employees includes it. We calculate employee and employer contributions through payroll each pay run, reconcile them, and support your employer tasks on the My Future Fund portal. As the employer, you pay the contributions through the official My Future Fund arrangements. If you still need to register as an employer, we do that for a one-off €49.99 + VAT.

I'm the only person on the payroll. Do I need My Future Fund?

If the only people on your payroll are directors paying Class S PRSI, there are no eligible employees, so you don't need to register until you take on staff. Our Director package is built for this.

I'm a new employer. What do I need?

You must register with Revenue as an employer before you pay anyone. We do this for €99.99 + VAT, then set up your payroll.

Can you take over part-way through the year?

Yes. We pick up from your last pay run using your current provider's records, so your employees' year-to-date figures stay correct. Switching in January is simplest, and set-up is free if you switch by 31 January 2027 and stay with us for at least 6 months.

Can you catch up on missed pay runs?

Yes. Catch-up payroll for earlier periods is charged per payslip: €4 weekly, €5 fortnightly or €6 monthly, with a €20 minimum per pay run.

What do you need from me each pay day?

Hours, overtime, bonuses and any starters or leavers, a few days before pay day. We do the rest and tell you exactly what to pay your staff and Revenue.

Can you train our staff to run payroll themselves?

Yes. We set up and train on SimplePay and CloudPay, with one-to-one training at €199.99 + VAT for 2 hours.

We're an accountancy practice. Can you run our clients' payroll?

Yes, under your name or ours, at preferential partner rates. See partner options.
