How do I start processing 2024 payroll?


Every tax year we release brand new software in line with the new budgetary requirements. Thus, to move your payroll on to a new tax year, simply download the new tax year version of BrightPay when it is available on our website (from mid December) at www.brightpay.ie/download/ 

Once downloaded, this will install separately to your previous year’s software and you will see a new BrightPay icon appear on your desktop. Your software for the new tax year will contain a seamless import facility to bring across your employee details from the previous tax year. In doing so, your previous year’s information will remain untouched and accessible.

As per our End User Licence Agreement, a new licence is required each tax year to continue with the software after 60 days trial use.
