What Payday does

Payday is a payroll assistance and compliance-support platform. It:

• Calculates payroll figures based on the statutory rules configured in the platform.
• Prepares payslips, employment contracts, and filing pack exports.
• Reminds you of upcoming filing and payment deadlines.
• Records payroll history in an immutable audit trail.

What Payday does not do

Payday does not:

• File, pay, or submit statutory returns (PAYE, SSC, UIF, SDL, VET levy, COIDA, or any other return) to any authority on your behalf.
• Provide legal, tax, labour, payroll, or accounting advice.
• Guarantee that any calculation is correct or that the statutory rules in the platform are current.
• Replace professional payroll, HR, or legal advice.

Rule accuracy and legal review status

Every statutory rule in Payday is stored as a versioned snapshot with a legal review status. Rules marked unverified or needs review have not been independently verified against official gazette publications. Always check the review status of the active rule version in your admin panel and verify all figures with a qualified professional before remitting to statutory authorities.

Authority disclaimer

Payday is not endorsed by, certified by, affiliated with, or approved by NamRA, SARS, the Social Security Commission (Namibia), the Unemployment Insurance Fund (South Africa), the Compensation Fund (COIDA), or any other statutory authority or government body. Any reference to these authorities is for informational purposes only.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Payday South Africa and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to your use of the platform, including but not limited to incorrect payroll calculations, missed filing deadlines, penalties, interest, or any other statutory liability. You assume full responsibility for verifying all payroll outputs before remitting to any authority.
