Payroll Hub

Keep your payroll provider. We make it speak.

Payroll Hub links the provider you already run, out of the box, both ways, no rip-and-replace. Your HR data and your payroll finally read from the same page.

Your payroll provider

Enter once. Payroll Hub keeps both sides in sync.

Switching payroll is painful. So you don't. And you pay for it every month.

Rekeying

The same starters, leavers and changes typed into HR and again into payroll.

Data drift

HR says one thing, payroll another. Nobody's sure which is right.

Month-end scramble

Exports, spreadsheets, manual reconciliation, every cycle.

Errors cost twice

Corrections, re-runs, and the trust you lose with employees.

The fix

Your provider stays. The manual work goes.

Payroll Hub is the connected layer between your HR and the payroll provider you already trust.

Enter a change once in PopayHR (or your HRIS) and Payroll Hub delivers it to your provider in the format they expect, then brings the results back. No exports, no rekeying, no rip-and-replace.

It runs on Popay Connect, the same integration backbone behind everything we link, monitored, versioned and resilient.

enter it once

Instead of HR → export → reformat → import → reconcile, every cycle.

Why Payroll Hub

It speaks your provider's language

Every provider has its own fields, wage codes, calendars and file formats. Payroll Hub already knows them.

{}

Speaks your provider's languagethe edge

Maps to each provider's fields, wage codes, cut-off calendars and formats, out of the box. You don't build or maintain that mapping. We do.

Out of the box

Pre-built connectors, not a custom integration project. Live in weeks, not quarters, and no provider migration.

Two-way by design

HR inputs flow down, payroll results flow back up. One source of truth on both sides, not two diverging copies.

Built on Popay Connect

Monitored, versioned and resilient middleware, the same backbone across every Popay integration, with audit and error handling built in.

Connects out of the box

How it works

One layer, both directions

PopayHR / your HRIS

Where changes happen: hires, leavers, edits, absences.

Maps, validates and routes, on Popay Connect.

Your payroll provider

Runs payroll as today, now fed and read automatically.

"We stopped typing every change twice. A hire goes into PopayHR once and it's in payroll. Month-end reconciliation went from days to a quick check."
Payroll lead, [client]
NEEDS INPUT: replace with a real, approved customer outcome quote (buyer value, not a process thank-you) and confirm consent to name the client.

The real questions

What procurement actually asks

Which providers do you connect to?+

Pre-built connectors across markets: SD Worx, ADP, Partena, Nmbrs and more. And the list grows each release. Payroll Hub is provider-agnostic.

What if my provider isn't on the list?+

Popay Connect can map to it. Tell us which provider you run and we'll confirm the path.

How long does it take to go live?+

Weeks, not a custom project: pre-built connectors, and no provider migration.

Is it genuinely two-way?+

Yes. Changes flow down to your provider; results flow back up. One source of truth on both sides, not two diverging copies.

What if we change providers later?+

Re-map on Popay Connect: no lock-in.

Do we keep our provider and contract?+

Yes. You keep the payroll you already run; Payroll Hub is the connective layer between it and your HR.

What about data and security?+

GDPR-compliant and EU-hosted, with audit and error handling built into Popay Connect, monitored and versioned.
