This extension round follows a record year of growth for Payslip since its last financing in March 2020, which saw a nearly 100% increase in employee headcount, 40% revenue growth, and 25% quarterly customer growth. This investment empowers Payslip to continue helping multinational organizations solve a range of payroll-related pain points, including lack of data standardization & automation, reporting & analytics, compliance and payroll operational efficiency and facilitates the ability to grow a business by scaling into new countries and markets seamlessly. Proceeds from the funding round will also enable Payslip to hire more talent across a range of departments, including engineering, product development, sales, tech support, and finance to drive the business forward and serve its growing international client base.
“Companies with high growth international expansion need a flexible global payroll management system to onboard countries quickly and provide multi-country reporting, so their leadership can make smart FDI decisions,” says Fidelma McGuirk, CEO of Payslip. “Covid travel restrictions, in-country business continuity requirements, and increased WFH acceptability have turbocharged international hiring and country expansion. Payslip customers use our technology to grow quickly into new countries, deliver a unified employee self-serve experience globally and, most importantly, to have real-time insights via the reporting available on Payslip around payroll costs, operational delivery and vendor performance.”

This will ensure its platform and integration technology are fully optimized to lead the next generation of innovation in the global payroll space.

This flexible global payroll tech is unique in the marketplace and we are excited to help them create innovative, problem-solving solutions for global employers.”
