Statutory deductions, automated

Crew calculates and tracks EOBI and PESSI/SESSI contributions automatically based on each employee's profile and the latest contribution rates. The deductions show on every payslip and on audit-ready records you can export for compliance reviews.

See it in action

Everything you need to run payroll in Pakistan.

Time and attendance integration

Hours flow into payroll automatically from biometric devices like ZKTeco and Hikvision, mobile clock-in with GPS, and manual timesheets, all feeding the same payroll engine. No end-of-month reconciliation.

Direct bank transfers

Approve a payroll run and Crew generates the bank transfer file in your bank's required format. Most major Pakistani banks are supported; for others, export a standard file you can upload to your bank's portal.

Audit-ready records

Every payroll run produces a complete record: who was paid what, when, with which deductions and approvals. Records are exportable as PDF or Excel and timestamped for audit purposes.

Payslips employees actually get

Every employee gets a clear, professional payslip the moment payroll runs, downloadable as PDF, available in the self-service portal, and emailed automatically. Each payslip itemizes earnings, statutory deductions, and net pay in PKR.

Time to value

How long does payroll take with Crew?

Most Crew customers run payroll in under 30 minutes, start to finish, including reviewing hours, applying any one-off adjustments, approving the run, and triggering bank transfers. Compare that to manual or Excel-based payroll, which typically takes a full day per cycle for a team of 20–50 employees.

The first run takes longer, usually 60–90 minutes, because that's when you set up salary structures, approval workflows, and bank details. Every run after that uses the rules you set the first time.

  • Sync hours from time and attendance, under 1 minute (automated from biometric or mobile clock-in)
  • Review and approve hours, 5–10 minutes for a team of 30
  • Apply adjustments (bonuses, advances, one-off deductions), 5–10 minutes
  • Run payroll and generate payslips, 1–2 minutes
  • Approve and trigger transfers, 1 minute

Common pitfalls

The payroll mistakes Crew prevents.

Manual payroll mistakes hurt twice, once when an employee is underpaid, once when you have to fix it. Here are the four most common errors and how Crew handles each.

Wrong overtime calculations

Manual overtime math is where most payroll errors happen. Crew applies the rules you configure once; every cycle calculates overtime correctly across different rates, weekend rules, and shift differentials.

Missed statutory deductions

Forgetting an EOBI deduction for a new hire, or missing an adjustment when salary changes, creates compliance gaps. Crew applies statutory rules automatically based on each employee's profile.

Late payslips and disputes

Late payslips create disputes that take hours to resolve. Crew generates and delivers payslips the moment payroll runs, every employee gets the same thing, at the same time.

Lost audit trail

When auditors or your accountant ask to verify a payroll run from six months ago, Excel-based payroll often can't produce the record. Crew keeps complete, timestamped records of every run.

Local-first

Built for Pakistan, not adapted for it.

Most international payroll software treats Pakistan as a configuration option. Crew treats it as the default.

  • PKR billing, your costs don't shift when the dollar moves
  • Pakistani statutory deductions built in, EOBI, PESSI, SESSI
  • Local biometric hardware support, ZKTeco, Hikvision, the brands actually used in Pakistani offices
  • Major Pakistani banks supported for direct transfers
  • Support hours in PKT, Mon–Fri, 10 AM to 7 PM
  • Urdu-friendly UI and Urdu speakers on support

How it works

From setup to running, in three steps.

1

Hours sync automatically

Crew pulls hours from biometric devices, mobile attendance, and timesheets the moment a pay period closes, no imports, no copying between systems.

2

Review, approve, adjust

See a summary per employee with exceptions flagged. Add bonuses, advances, or one-off deductions in the same screen. Most owners approve in under 10 minutes.

3

Run payroll and disburse

One click applies salary structures, calculates statutory deductions, generates payslips, and produces the bank transfer file. Employees get notified instantly.

Saved over 80 hours a year

“Payroll used to take at least one full day per month. We’re able to run payroll bi-weekly now, which takes us less than an hour each month.”
