For small businesses

The HR you don’t have time to build, run for you.

Contracts, UIF and COIDA, monthly payroll and payslips for your team, handled the same simple way we do it for households: on WhatsApp, without an HR department. You run the business, we run the admin behind your people.

We take on small teams by hand, so we can do them properly. Tell us about yours.

Why small teams choose us

Built for a handful of staff, not a corporate.

No HR department needed

You don’t have a payroll clerk or an HR manager. You don’t need one. Mandla and our team are it.

It runs on WhatsApp

The place your team already is. No new system to learn, no logins, no software to roll out.

One simple price per worker

A flat monthly fee per employee, far less than an accountant or a payroll package built for big companies.

Cafes and restaurants, small shops, guesthouses, salons, small service and property teams, we already run payroll for businesses like yours.

We onboard small businesses by hand and vet each one, so it’s done right. Send us a note with how many people you employ and what you need.
