Built by practitioners

Built by people who run payroll.

SSA Payroll is designed by a team of Kenyan tax and finance professionals — built around the statutory rules we apply every month, not a generic global template. When Kenyan law changes, so does the platform.

Every rate profile is versioned, effective-dated and cites its source. You can see the current rates on the public statutory rates page — because they are, and should remain, public law.

Our commitment
  • Rate changes only via new effective-dated profiles — never silently retroactive.
  • Finalized runs and issued filings are immutable — history is history.
  • Every export cites its format source; when KRA or SHA change a template, we update the pack.
  • Prefer to hand it off entirely? SSA also runs payroll for clients.

One late PAYE return: a minimum of KES 10,000, before late-payment penalties and interest.
