Payslips · EMP201 · EMP501
Start free and stay free for a single small business. Move up only when you need more companies or more staff. Once-off payment — no monthly fees.
SARS changes the tax tables every year, at the Budget in February. You can type the new tables into BBB Payroll yourself, free, at any time — the software is built for it and SARS publishes the figures. If you would rather not, buy the update and the verified, tested tables install themselves.
Included at no cost on the Accountant licence.
Every plan runs the same verified SARS calculation engine. The difference is capacity, not accuracy.
