SimplePay

Overview

SimplePay is a cloud-based payroll solution built for Irish businesses. It automates PAYE Modernisation submissions, PRSI, USC, and Revenue's Enhanced Reporting Requirements, retrieving RPNs automatically and submitting directly to ROS with a single click. SimplePay also supports My Future Fund auto-enrolment, Ireland's pension scheme introduced in January 2026. It integrates with Xero and QuickBooks Online, and includes employee self-service for payslips and leave management. A dedicated legal team monitors Irish legislative changes and automatically updates the system.

Inside SimplePay

This is the core loop of SimplePay: run the month's payroll, file it to Revenue, and let employees help themselves to payslips and leave. Screens supplied by SimplePay, July 2026.
