Simple Payslip Generator for Small Teams

Produce clean monthly payslips for a small team from one staff sheet, with earnings, deductions and employer contribution lines you enter.

Economics

Pricing example
$29 lifetime per company (free: 2 employees)
Daily math
2 sales every 3 days x $29 = about $19/day; a few extra sales a month take the average past $20/day.
Target if you hit the daily math
Target: $550 - $850 / month if the daily math is hit

Audience and urgency

Audience: SMEs, clinics, shops and startups with fewer than 20 staff, in Malaysia and elsewhere, who run payroll in a spreadsheet.

Urgency: Staff need payslips for loans, rentals and their own records. Owners who run payroll in a spreadsheet build each payslip by hand every month.

MVP scope

  • ✓ Company profile and staff list (name, staff ID, position, bank details optional)
  • ✓ Monthly sheet: basic pay, allowances, overtime, deductions and contribution lines (e.g. EPF/SOCSO/EIS/PCB) entered or imported by the employer
  • ✓ Payslip PDFs per employee plus a ZIP for the month
  • ✓ Year-to-date totals per employee
  • ✓ Browser-only; Stripe Payment Link unlocks unlimited staff

Omitted features

  • - Do NOT calculate statutory contributions or tax; the employer enters the amounts
  • - Do NOT submit to government or bank systems
  • - Do NOT store salary data on a server

Build a browser-only "Payslip Generator" in React with Tailwind CSS.
Core requirements:

3. Compute gross, total deductions and net pay in code; year-to-date totals per employee across saved months.
4. Payslip PDF per employee (pdf-lib) and a ZIP of all payslips for the month; optional password-protected export of the data file for backup.
5. Free: 2 employees; Stripe Payment Link ($29) unlocks unlimited staff via a licence code. Show a note that statutory amounts must be calculated by the employer or their adviser.
