Payroll for Nigeria, built for growth across Africa

The tax math is right.
The payslips go out on time.
Nobody approves their own payroll.

Flexi-System calculates progressive PAYE, pension, NHF and NHIS correctly for every employee, every time, and then routes payroll through a second person before a single payslip goes out.

Why it works

Real numbers, not marketing adjectives.

Scales with your headcount

Employees supported, by plan the same limits your subscription actually enforces.

12 Starter 50 Growth 500 Scale

Bar heights are scaled for readability, not 1:1, see pricing for exact figures.

Every deduction accounted for

An example payslip's deductions, broken down, this is the math Flexi-System runs automatically on every payroll.

payslip
  • PAYE 46%
  • Pension 30%
  • NHIS 15%
  • NHF 9%

Illustrative example, every organisation's real split depends on salary structure and statutory rates.

What Flexi-System actually does

Not a spreadsheet with a login page.

Progressive PAYE

Every one of the six statutory tax bands, applied correctly, not a flat rate above the first threshold. Rent relief lowers what's taxed, never what's paid out.

Maker-checker approval

Payroll is calculated, reviewed, then approved by a second person before a single payslip goes out. Nobody can approve what they prepared themselves.

Bank payment files, ready to upload

NIBSS-format bulk payment files, generated straight from an approved run upload to your corporate banking portal and pay everyone in one transfer.

Statutory filing exports

Lagos LIRS PAYE schedules, pension remittance sheets, and NHF exports generated directly from the payroll you already ran, not built again from scratch.

A dashboard for every role

Owners see the whole company. Payroll officers see run status. Finance sees what's waiting on their approval. HR sees headcount and leave. Nobody digs for their own numbers.

Payslips delivered automatically

Every approved run emails a payslip to every employee automatically, with delivery tracked per person, so you know who actually received theirs.

Questions

Frequently asked.

Is Flexi-System built specifically for Nigerian payroll?

Yes: PAYE, pension, NHF and NHIS are calculated to the current statutory bands and rates, and filing exports match what Nigerian tax authorities expect.

Can one person run payroll alone?

Maker-checker approval is on by default, but a genuinely single-person business can turn it off, the choice is still recorded for audit purposes either way.

Progressive tax, a second approver, and a payment file your bank actually accepts.
