A payslip (called a pay stub in the US) is the record you give an employee each pay run showing exactly how their net pay was worked out — what they earned, what was deducted, and what landed in their account. This tool is for employers and small businesses producing that documentation for their own staff. Fill in the earnings and deductions, and it lays out a clean PDF with gross pay, total deductions, and net pay clearly shown.

Things to know

A payslip itemises — a lump sum is not a payslip

A proper payslip shows gross pay, every deduction listed separately, and the resulting net pay. A single 'salary paid' figure with no breakdown is not a payslip and usually will not satisfy payroll record-keeping expectations.

You are responsible for what you issue

A payslip should accurately reflect the pay the employee actually received. As the employer you are responsible for the accuracy of what you issue, and most jurisdictions require you to keep copies of payslips for your records for a number of years.

This tool records amounts — it does not calculate PAYE

Payroll tax and statutory deductions vary by country and change over time. This generator records the deduction amounts you enter; it does not calculate PAYE, pension, or other statutory deductions for you. Work those out (or have your payroll do so) and enter the figures.

Year-to-date figures matter at year-end

Many jurisdictions expect running year-to-date totals on payslips, and they make year-end reconciliation far easier. The YTD fields here are optional — add them if your payroll tracks them.
