You sell payroll. We run it behind the scenes — under your brand, at your margin, with direct HMRC integration. No software licences. No payroll headaches. Just a system that works.
Without hiring. Without payroll software. Without the liability.
The problem with in-house payroll
Between software licences, HMRC compliance overhead, staff time, and the liability when things go wrong — payroll is one of the most expensive services accountants undercharge for.
Sage, BrightPay, IRIS — per-client licences add up fast. You're paying before you've invoiced.
Chasing payroll data, correcting submissions, answering HMRC queries. Hours that disappear every month.
RTI errors, CIS penalties, incorrect codes. The client blames you. The exposure is real.
The firms that make payroll profitable are the ones who stopped running it themselves. They white-label to a bureau and take the margin. bookd. is built to be that bureau.
How it works
Quick partner setup. We agree your brand output, pricing structure, and how you want to communicate with your clients.
Each pay period, you pass us your client payroll data. We accept it in whatever format works for you.
bookd. runs payroll, validates compliance, submits RTI directly to HMRC, and handles all CIS requirements.
Payslips, reports, and confirmations go out under your brand. Your client never sees bookd. You take the credit.
