NGO payroll

Payroll that satisfies KRA and your donors at the same time

Statutory deductions computed correctly, program staff costs allocated to the grants they work on, and every payroll run posted into your books automatically.

Sound familiar?

If any of these ring true, you are exactly who this was built for.

Statutory changes catch you late

NSSF bands and SHIF rules change; your spreadsheet finds out at penalty time.

Staff costs donors question

An officer works across three grants, but payroll charges one — and the donor noticed.

Payroll disconnected from the ledger

Payroll happens in one tool, journals are retyped into another, and differences creep in.

Casual and field-staff chaos

Enumerators and casuals paid via M-Pesa with no consistent records for audits.

Statutory files ready, costs on the right grants, journals in your books.

Frequently asked questions

Does it stay current with Kenyan statutory changes?

Yes — PAYE bands, NSSF tiers, SHIF, and housing levy rules are maintained in the product, so changes reach you as updates rather than spreadsheet edits.

Can one employee's cost be split across grants?

Yes — allocations by percentage or timesheet split gross pay, statutory costs, and benefits across grants, producing the personnel schedules donors ask for.

How are casuals and enumerators handled?

Casual workers are paid through dedicated runs with their own records and rates, kept distinct from regular payroll but visible in grant costs and reports.

Can we pay via M-Pesa or bank transfer?

Payroll produces payment files for bank transfer and integrates with mobile money flows, with every payment referenced back to the payroll run.
