How it works
From first call
to first payslip.
Here is the whole journey, step by step. You always know what happens next, and who is doing it.
Once, at the start
We get to know you, then we set up your new team member properly.
Step 1: Talk to us
A 20-minute call. Tell us who you want to employ, the role, and what you plan to pay them. We send you one page with the salary, our fee and a start date.
WhoYou and us
James client
We’d like Priya to join us as a developer. Can we talk this week?
Step 2: We set you up
We add your company to our system: your contacts, your team and your pay day. From here, everything about your team is kept in one place.
WhoUs
Step 3: Details and documents, through a secure link
We send your new team member a secure link. They type in their own details and upload their documents. We check every detail against the documents.
WhoYour new team member, then us
Priya developer
Link done. Bank details and documents are all uploaded 👍
Step 4: Offer letter, sent and signed
We send the offer letter with the title, salary and start date. They sign it, and we keep the signed copy safe with their records.
WhoUs, then your new team member

Priya has signed. She starts on the date you asked for.
Then, every month
The same clear routine, so pay day is never a surprise.
Step 5: We prepare the month’s pay
Before pay day, we collect the changes for the month: new starters, leavers, leave and any bonus. We work out everyone’s pay, and a second person on our team checks it.
WhoYou tell us the changes. We do the work
Step 6: You approve it
We send you the figures for each person, with our fee and the invoice total. Approve it, or send it back with a question. Nothing moves until you say yes.
WhoYou
James client
Looks right. Approved.
Step 7: Paid on time, with a payslip
Once you approve, the figures are locked and we start processing. Your team is paid on pay day, and each person gets a clear payslip.
WhoUs
Priya developer
Payslip is in. Same day as always, thank you 🙌
Step 8: Tax and statutory filings, done
We pay and file income tax, provident fund and the other statutory items on time, and we keep the proof of each one.
WhoUs
Step 9: One invoice to you
One invoice for the month. Salary, employer costs and our fee, each on its own line.
WhoUs, to you
Next month, we start again at “We prepare the month’s pay”.
