Everything in every plan

From the first hire to the last payslip.

No modules to add later and nothing charged per payslip or per return.

Payroll that is checked before anyone is paid

Every run goes from draft to reviewed to approved. Anything that looks wrong is flagged on the payslip, not found afterwards.

Payslips on every phone

Each payslip goes to the employee by email or WhatsApp, locked with their ID number. They see every payslip and their leave balance, ask for leave and claim overtime, on their phone.

Leave by the rules

Days build up month by month, carry over to the legal limit, skip public holidays and go to the right manager.

Returns ready to file

Each month's statutory returns come out of the approved payroll, as files for the tax authority and the funds.

A journal for your accountant

Each approved payroll as a journal in your own account codes: Excel, CSV, Xero or QuickBooks.

Each person sees only their part

Roles for HR, payroll, finance and managers. A payroll is approved by someone other than who prepared it, and every change is in the log.

More than payroll

And everything else your HR team does.

Payroll is where most companies start. Records, leave, time, self-service and control come with it, in every plan, at no extra cost.

Five areas, all in every plan. Tap one to open it.

  • Personal details, next of kin, tax and fund numbers
  • Contracts and documents, with reminders before probation and contracts end
  • NEC grades, with pay below the minimum flagged
  • Sites and departments, and everyone imported from your spreadsheet

Questions

What is SwiftlyPeople?

SwiftlyPeople is online payroll and HR software for businesses in Zimbabwe and Zambia. It works out PAYE, NSSA and NEC in Zimbabwe and PAYE, NAPSA and NHIMA in Zambia on every payslip, keeps leave to each country's labour law, prepares each month's statutory returns, and sends every employee their payslip by email or WhatsApp. It runs in a web browser on any computer or phone, and is made by Intetrix Solutions.

How much does SwiftlyPeople cost?

One price by the number of people you employ, with payroll and HR in every plan, as many users as you need and no setup fee. In Zimbabwe, in US dollars: Starter $15 a month for up to 100 employees, Growth $35 a month for up to 300 employees and Business $129 a month for up to 1,000 employees. In Zambia, in kwacha: Starter K400 a month for up to 100 employees, Growth K790 a month for up to 300 employees and Business K1,990 a month for up to 1,000 employees. Enterprise is by quote. Paying yearly costs the price of 10 months. Every company starts with a 30-day free trial, with no card needed.

Which countries does SwiftlyPeople work in?

Zimbabwe and Zambia. A company chooses its country when it signs up and starts with that country's tax tables, contributions, leave and public holidays loaded. More African countries are on the way.

What happens when the trial ends?

Choose a plan to carry on. A week before each period we email an invoice. In Zimbabwe it is in US dollars, paid by bank transfer. In Zambia it is in kwacha, paid by bank transfer. Everything you set up during the trial stays.

What if the tax tables change?

We load the new tables and rates when the law changes, for every company in that country. Payroll uses whichever were in force for the month being paid.

Can I bring my employees from a spreadsheet?

Yes. Upload your own sheet: SwiftlyPeople matches the columns and shows you every row before anything is saved. Or send it to us and we will load it.

Is our information kept apart from other companies?

Yes. Each company's records are held separately from every other company's, and inside your company each person sees only what their role allows.

Does it prepare ZIMRA's TaRMS upload?

Yes, for companies in Zimbabwe. Each month's payroll fills in ZIMRA's own TaRMS templates: the employee earnings files, split into FDS and non-FDS employees as TaRMS asks, and the file that registers new employees. Download them and upload them in TaRMS.

How do employees get their payslips?

By email or WhatsApp, as soon as the payroll is final. Each payslip is a PDF locked with the employee's national ID number, so only they can open it. WhatsApp messages go from your own phone, at no cost. Employees with a sign-in also see all their payslips in SwiftlyPeople.

Do employees need their own sign-in?

Only if you want them to see their payslips, ask for leave and claim overtime themselves. You can give access to a few people or everyone, and each chooses their own password from a link we email them.

Can we put our logo on payslips?

Yes. Add it in Settings and it goes on every payslip and earnings statement, on screen and in the PDF, and on your sign-in page. A large picture is made small enough to email, so payslips stay quick to send.

Is there help inside SwiftlyPeople?

Yes. A short tour the first time each person signs in, a ? at the top of every page that opens the steps for it, and a manual of step-by-step guides worded for your country. Each person sees the guides for what their role can do, and our team answers by email.
