HELPFUL INFORMATION
Understand payroll setup before you buy.
Plain-English guidance for customers who want more detail. The package scope and price shown above remain the commercial terms for this service.
Quick rule
Register before your first payday, but no more than 2 months in advance - HMRC won't accept an application outside that window.
- Payroll calculates gross pay, Income Tax, employee and employer National Insurance, pension deductions and net pay
- Registration is only the setup step - running payroll is a repeating compliance process
- The employer must keep accurate employee details, calculate deductions, send submissions on time, give payslips and pay HMRC by the relevant deadline
- This package creates the scheme but does not include monthly payroll processing

If your job falls outside the stated scope, we will explain why and agree a new quote before work starts.
When should I register as an employer?+
Register before the first payday, allowing time for HMRC to issue references. HMRC also limits how early an application can be made, so the planned payday is required.
Do I need PAYE if I only employ a director?+
Often yes, depending on pay and other circumstances. We check the straightforward setup position based on the information supplied.
Does this include monthly payroll?+
No. It covers registration and handover. Payslips, RTI submissions and ongoing payroll administration are a recurring service.
Is pension auto-enrolment included?+
No. We flag the duty, but pension scheme setup and ongoing assessment are separate.
What if I have already paid staff?+
Historic or late payroll may need reconstruction and late submissions, so it falls outside the standard package and requires a quote.
