Frequently asked questions
Your payroll questions answered
How much does #GoFile Payroll cost?
£49.99 + VAT a year covers up to 5 employees — pay runs, PAYE and National Insurance calculations, payslips, workplace pensions and RTI filing to HMRC. Above 5, each additional employee is £12.49 + VAT a year.
What’s included in the price?
The full product, with no add-on modules to buy: unlimited pay runs on any pay schedule, PAYE and National Insurance, payslips, P45s, P60s and P11Ds, statutory pay, workplace pension assessment, FPS and EPS filing to HMRC, and UK support.
Can I use #GoFile payroll for multiple companies?
Yes. You can run payroll for every company in your #GoFile account. Someone employed by more than one of your companies counts once for each company, as each has its own PAYE scheme.
How are employees counted?
Across all companies in your #GoFile account, based on the payroll period being filed. Leavers and future starters are counted according to the period you’re filing, so you’re never charged for people you no longer pay.
What happens when my team grows?
Add extra employees at any time for £12.49 + VAT a year each above the first 5, charged pro-rata to your renewal date. If your team shrinks, your plan adjusts at renewal — you only pay for the employees you actually run payroll for.
Is there a contract or tie-in?
No. Payroll is a simple annual subscription with no long-term contract — cancel any time before your renewal.
When do I need to pay?
Setting up is free: create your account, add your PAYE scheme, employees and pension settings, and check everything looks right. You only pay when you run your first pay run and file to HMRC.
Is #GoFile payroll HMRC-recognised?
Yes. #GoFile is HMRC-recognised payroll software and files RTI submissions — the Full Payment Submission (FPS) on payday and the Employer Payment Summary (EPS) each month — directly to HMRC.
What support do I get?
UK-based support from real people, included in your subscription, plus plain-English guides in our PAYE & Payroll knowledgebase covering RTI, tax codes, statutory pay and auto-enrolment.
Current payroll facts checked against GOV.UK guidance on running payroll, PAYE reporting, workplace pensions for employers and statutory pay.
