Made for South African buyers. Every price in rand, read from the vendor.
Price and plans · Payroll
2 products on the register meet this rule: Sage Payroll and SimplePay. Products whose own pages offer a free trial.
Every price is the vendor's own, in rand, with the date it was read, the latest on this list being 11 October 2026. A product is here only where its own pages state it. A product that is not here may still do it: the pages the register read do not say, so ask the vendor and ask to see it work.
