Per employer, not per employee

What is "per employer" pricing?

You pay a flat monthly fee based on your employee headcount. You are NOT charged per employee, per payslip, or per RTI submission. The Micro plan covers 1–5 employees regardless of how many payslips you generate.

What happens when I grow beyond my plan?

Move to the next tier at any point. Upgrades are immediate. Downgrades take effect at the next billing cycle.

What is the Agency tier for?

Recruitment agencies that use umbrella companies in their supply chain. Finance Act 2025 transferred PAYE liability from umbrellas to agencies from April 2026. The Agency tier is the only payroll product built to manage that exposure — FCSA monitoring, fraud scoring, reconciliation engine.

What is the Umbrella tier for?

Umbrella companies that process payroll for contractors. The Umbrella tier includes FCSA 14-standard compliance tracking, contractor payslip portal, and a full audit trail for Finance Act 2025 evidence.

Is there a bureau / accountant plan?

Yes — the Bureau plan covers an unlimited number of employer clients. Each client's payroll is processed independently with separate PAYE references and RTI submissions.

Does We Switch Payroll submit RTI to HMRC?

FPS on or before every payment date, EPS for nil periods and statutory pay reclaim. The engines are built and accuracy-tested against HMRC payroll test data. Filing switches on with HMRC PAYE Recognition — our application is in. Until it completes we do not file on your behalf and you are not charged for it, and the Agency and Umbrella compliance tiers run independently of RTI.

What is the Human QA gate?

Every payroll run goes to our Human QA team before the FPS reaches HMRC. A trained reviewer checks every employee's gross pay, tax, NI and pension. No FPS is submitted without human approval. This is non-negotiable — it is the feature that prevents incorrect RTI submissions.

Can I use We Switch Payroll with employ.law?

Yes. If you use both products, employee records sync automatically. Zero re-entry. employ.law handles employment law and contracts; We Switch Payroll handles payroll processing.
