Il n’y a pas de mauvaises questions

What does small business payroll software and services actually include?

Small business payroll software and services cover more than running the numbers. You get software to manage payroll, leave and expenses in one place, backed by UK payroll specialists who handle HMRC submissions and pension queries, and Payfit AI, which answers day-to-day payroll and HR questions instantly. You keep visibility over everything, while the detail is taken care of.

Does small business payroll software handle HMRC submissions for me?

Yes. Payroll runs typically include automated HMRC RTI submissions, so your Full Payment Submission is sent to HMRC every time you pay your team, without you having to track deadlines manually. Our UK specialists check the detail behind the scenes.

What if I have a payroll question my software can't answer?

Payfit AI answers most everyday payroll and HR questions straight away. For anything more detailed, whether it's a pension query or a tricky new starter case, our UK payroll specialists step in directly. You're never left working it out alone.

Can small business payroll software manage pension auto-enrolment for my team?

Yes. Auto-enrolment duties apply from your very first employee: anyone earning over £10,000 a year and aged 22 to State Pension age must be enrolled into a workplace pension. Payroll software tracks these thresholds automatically as your team grows, and our specialists are on hand if a case falls outside the standard rules.

How much does payroll software cost for a small business?

Pricing usually combines a monthly base fee with a per-employee charge, so cost scales with your headcount rather than being a flat rate. For a full breakdown by business size, our best payroll software for UK SMEs guide compares typical pricing structures and what's included at each level.

Can I switch to this payroll software if I already use a different provider?

Yes, and you can do it at any point in the year. Changing payroll providers mainly means transferring your employee records, year-to-date figures and PAYE details accurately, ideally with a parallel payroll run to check everything matches before going live. Our team supports the migration so payroll continues without a gap.

Do I need payroll or HR expertise to use small business payroll software?

No. The software is built for business owners without a payroll background. Payfit AI guides you through everyday tasks, and UK specialists are there for anything that needs a closer look. You stay in control of decisions, while the technical calculations and HMRC compliance are handled for you.
