Running payroll in Ireland is more complex than it looks. Between PAYE, PRSI, USC, ERR filings, and ever-changing Revenue requirements, the margin for error is slim and the consequences of getting it wrong are real. At PurpleTree, our IPASS-certified payroll team takes complete ownership of your payroll function — processing it accurately, compliantly, and on time, every single time — so you can focus on running your business.

  • Managed by an IPASS Professional Payroll Manager — the gold standard in Irish payroll
  • Full PAYE, PRSI, USC, and ERR compliance with all Revenue filings handled for you
  • Secure, password-protected digital payslips delivered directly to your employees
  • SEPA payment files generated for seamless, on-time bank transfers
