help BrightPay FAQ

Is BrightPay designed for UK payroll, Irish payroll, or all European countries?

BrightPay has dedicated products for the UK and Ireland, including support for each country's payroll rules and tax-year processes. It should not be treated as one universal payroll engine for every EU jurisdiction without checking the specific country edition.

What is the difference between BrightPay desktop, BrightPay Connect, and BrightPay Cloud?

The traditional BrightPay product runs payroll on Windows, while BrightPay Connect adds cloud backup and employee or client self-service. BrightPay Cloud moves payroll processing itself into a browser-based service, so buyers should confirm which product a quoted price covers.

Can employees access payslips without using the payroll computer?

BrightPay Connect provides a web-based portal through which employees can access documents such as payslips. The employer must subscribe to and configure Connect because the desktop payroll product alone does not provide that online portal.

Is BrightPay suitable for an accountant managing several employers?

Yes, BrightPay sells bureau-oriented options for payroll providers handling multiple employer files. Its cloud pricing also includes multi-employer packs, so an accountant should compare the per-employer cost rather than buying separate single-company plans.
