Overview
Why Payroll is different
Nigerian payroll is complicated — PAYE bands, pension deductions, pro-rating for new starters, overtime, loans, and expense reimbursements all need to be factored in. Moatwave does all of this automatically, pulling verified attendance data before computing net pay so you never pay someone for days they did not show up. One approval flow, one bulk disbursement, done.
PAYE-Compliant Computation
Automatic PAYE calculation based on Nigerian tax bands — updated when rates change.
Attendance-Verified Pay
Payroll pulls from GPS-verified attendance data — late arrivals and absences are factored in automatically.
Net Pay Calculation
Gross salary minus PAYE, pension, loans, and any other deductions — computed instantly.
