For employers

Payroll with the controls finance needs.

A run nobody can approve alone. SSNIT and PAYE worked out for each person, and every figure opens up. Payslips, payment files and your GRA and SSNIT forms all come from the same locked run, so nothing can disagree with what you signed off.

An illustration of the employer app, with figures computed on the 2026 SSNIT and PAYE rates.

The run

Arithmetic you can defend.

  • Every figure opens up

    Pay, allowances, overtime, bonuses, absence, then SSNIT and PAYE. Open any figure and see the arithmetic.

  • Fix an old month without breaking it

    A correction for March uses March's rates. A back-dated fix cannot quietly rewrite history.

  • Off-cycle runs stay separate

    A mid-month bonus or final settlement is its own run, and never distorts the month's totals.

  • Correct a month, keep the year right

    Cumulative pay and tax follow the person, so a re-computed month is never double-counted.

Control

Nobody pays themselves.

  • Preparer, then approvers

    Whoever builds the run cannot approve it. Over 25 people, two approvals are required.

  • Once you lock it, it stays locked

    Payslips, payment files and forms are all cut from the frozen run. Nothing can quietly change after you sign off.

  • Roles that mean something

    Payment files can only be downloaded by the person entitled to send them.

  • A record of who did what

    Every edit, approval and lock carries a name and a timestamp.

Taxes and SSNIT

What you owe, and when.

Each locked run adds what it owes to one list, closest due date first. Overdue, due today, due in four days, in plain words.

  • PAYE income tax Pay to GRA
  • SSNIT contributions Pay to SSNIT (Tier 1 and Tier 2)
  • Tier 2 pension Pay to your Tier 2 trustee
  • Tier 3 pension Pay to your Tier 3 provider
  • Student loan levy Pay to SLTF
  • Yearly PAYE return File with GRA

Paying people

Your money stays yours.

We never hold your payroll money. Locking a run makes one payment file for each way you pay: a bank file for people paid into accounts, a mobile money file for people paid into wallets. You send each one yourself, then mark the run as paid.

  • Two files, not one. The product will not let you forget the second.
  • Every payslip is made at the same moment, from the same locked run.
  • The run is only marked paid when you say you have sent every file.

Advances, built in

The advance queue, without the queue.

You set aside a fund that advances are paid from. Payday deducts the same amount and returns it, so you fund it once and it goes round. It is not a credit line, and nobody can be paid below zero.

You set the fund at
₵40,000.00
Taken by your team this month
₵12,400.00
Deducted across the payslips
₵12,400.00
Fund after the run
₵40,000.00

An illustration, not a quote. What the fund should hold depends on your headcount, your cap and your pay cycle. We work it out with you rather than guessing here.

Trust

Payroll is the most sensitive data you hold.

  • Sign-in is a password plus an emailed code. Sessions expire after eight hours.
  • Each role sees and does only what it is allowed.
  • Advances only reach an account verified against the employee's own name.
  • Data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
  • Built around Ghana's Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843).

Straight answers

How long does it take to get set up?

It depends on the state of your team data, and we will not pretend otherwise. What you send us is a list: names, salaries, SSNIT numbers, and bank or wallet details. We set it up, then run one month beside whatever you use today. You compare the two, line by line, before you switch anything off.

Can we keep our accountant?

Yes, and most companies should. AmplifyPay replaces the spreadsheet, not the person who checks it.

What happens if we have to correct a past month?

You run a correction on that month's rates. Year-to-date stays consistent, and the original run stays in the record.

What does it cost?

Per employee, per month, plus a fee on each advance if you switch them on. The pricing page shows what is settled and what is not.

Bring one month, and we will run it.

Your headcount, your pay cycle, your statutory setup. We build a run, approve it, lock it and show you the files and the schedules that come out the other side.
