Full visibility before you commit
See every payslip
before it goes out.
Every payslip is visible in real time as you build the payrun. Adjust a salary, correct a figure, add a bonus: net pay updates instantly across every employee. Nothing leaves until you are satisfied. And if something slips through, you can roll the payrun back without an HMRC headache.
Live payslip preview on every change
See the impact on gross, deductions and take-home for each employee the moment you edit a figure. No surprises on finalisation.
Roll back a payrun if you need to
Processed payroll and spotted an error? Reopen the payrun, correct it, and resubmit. Moonworkers handles the corrected FPS to HMRC automatically.
Employer cost visible at a glance
Total gross, PAYE, NI, pension and cost to employer shown as a summary before you finalise. No mental arithmetic required.

Year-to-date summary
Any mix of workers, one payrun
Salaried, hourly, zero-hours:
one flow, not five.
Most growing businesses have a mix: full-time staff, part-time employees, a zero-hours worker, someone on maternity, a new starter mid-month. Moonworkers handles every type in the same payrun without separate flows, workarounds, or specialist knowledge.
All employment types side by side
Salaried, hourly, zero-hours, statutory leave and CIS all calculated correctly in a single payrun. No separate processing runs.
Starters and leavers in a few clicks
Add a new starter, generate their P45, or process a mid-period leaver without breaking the rest of the payrun.
52-week holiday pay, ERA-compliant
Average weekly earnings calculated automatically for variable-hours employees. No spreadsheet, no manual lookup.

HMRC compliance, off your plate
Every deadline met.
Every submission confirmed.
RTI submissions, pension auto-enrolment, P60s: every obligation is handled on time, automatically, with confirmation from HMRC on each payrun. You never have to remember a date, a form, or a filing window again.
FPS sent and confirmed every payrun
Full Payment Submissions acknowledged by HMRC before you close the browser. The confirmation is stored and accessible if HMRC ever asks.
Auto-enrolment always current
Every employee re-evaluated at each payrun. Opt-outs, postponements and re-enrolments tracked automatically. No manual pension admin.
Year-end without the scramble
P60s generated automatically when the tax year closes. No extra step, no chasing employees, no last-minute panic.

Fits what you already use
No tool switch.
No disruption.
Moonworkers slots into your existing setup rather than replacing it. Connect your accounting software, export payroll journals after every run, and pay only for the employees you actually pay. No expensive tier to unlock, no features hidden behind an enterprise plan.
Accounting software integrations
Export your payroll journal directly to your accounts after every run. No re-entering figures, no reconciliation headaches.
Pay per payslip, not per seat
Pricing that makes sense whether you have 5 employees or 150. You pay for what you actually use, nothing more.
Full payslip archive, always there
Every payslip ever issued, stored and searchable. Download or resend any of them to any employee in seconds.
