Payroll off your desk. Everything included.
Payoa runs payroll for UK organisations of 100 to 999 employees with straightforward pay. One all in price covers payments to your people, HMRC and pensions, statutory filings and your GL export, on a modern engine, with named humans who answer.
Thirty minutes, a real person, and a priced illustration you can keep. No pitch deck.
One engine. Two ways to run it.
Both products share the same engine, so a Platform client can move to Managed later with no migration at all. Start where you are today and change your mind without penalty.

Explore the Platform →The quote is the invoice.
Most payroll quotes look cheap until the extras arrive: a charge per BACS file, a fee per filing, another to send the pension file, another for the GL export, another for the payslip portal.
Payoa includes them in the base price, so the number you agree is the number you pay. Comparing providers? Add up their extras column first. We are happy to be compared like for like.
A typical payroll quote
- Processing per payslip
- BACS payment file: charged per file
- RTI filing: charged per run
- Pension file: charged per period
- GL export: charged per report
- Payslip portal: charged per employee
The Payoa quote
- One all in price. Everything above included.
Payrolling of benefits starts becoming mandatory on 6 April 2027.
The P11D era is ending in two waves. From 6 April 2027 cars, vans, fuel and medical cover must be taxed through payroll itself, with most remaining benefits following in April 2028. Every UK employer with taxable benefits has to change how it operates. We have productised the whole transition.
Payroll is the start, not the whole job.
A menu of services sits on top of both products, priced per item so you only pay for what you use. Several are included on higher Managed tiers.
P11D and benefits returns
Forms prepared, filed and reconciled while they still exist.
Payrolling of benefits
Registration, setup and period by period administration.
Employee helpdesk
Your people ask us directly, so your team stops fielding payslip questions.
Court orders and AEOs
Attachment orders set up, calculated and remitted correctly.
Reporting and analytics
A 25 plus report library, or Payoa Insight dashboards your board will actually read.
Salary sacrifice admin
Schemes administered cleanly, from pensions to EVs.
Gender pay gap reporting
Statutory calculations and the narrative to go with them.
Total reward statements
Show employees what they really earn beyond the payslip.
Payroll health check
A fixed scope audit of your current payroll, from £4,500.
Live in weeks. Proven before pay day.
Changing payroll provider feels risky, so we designed the risk out of it.
Scoping
We agree scope from a completed scoping pack before contract, so no surprise complexity ever enters your price.
Build
Your payroll is configured on our engine while your team carries on exactly as normal.
Parallel runs
We run alongside your current provider and reconcile to the penny. Two parallel runs are included in every managed implementation.
Go live and hypercare
We take over on an agreed pay day, with two periods of heightened checks before business as usual.
Organisations of 100 to 249 employees are typically live in four weeks; 250 to 999 in six to eight. Exit assistance from Payoa is a capped fixed fee agreed at signature, so there is never a hostage clause.
Simple payrolls, done exceptionally.
We deliberately serve organisations with straightforward pay, because focus is what keeps quality high and prices honest.
Our home ground
- Professional services
- Technology and software
- Financial and business services
- Charities and membership bodies
- Education outside the maintained sector
- Media, wholesale and distribution with salaried teams
- Housing associations and group head offices
The honest bit
If your workforce runs on complex rostered shifts, heavy weekly paid churn or acute care patterns, we are not the right provider, and we will tell you so on the first call.
That discipline is exactly what makes us excellent for everyone we do take on: fewer errors, faster answers, and service levels we can genuinely hold.
