MegaHR

MegaHR — HR & Payroll Without a Per-Employee Bill

Employees, leave, attendance, multi-country statutory tax, payslips, and bank export — self-hosted, one licence, unlimited employees.

Gusto and BambooHR both charge per employee, every month, on top of a base fee — the bill climbs every time you hire. MegaHR is a WordPress plugin you install once. Payroll for 5 staff or 500 costs the same licence.

What Per-Employee Pricing Actually Costs

🌍 Real Statutory Tax, Not a Generic Calculator

• Nigeria — Nigeria Tax Act 2025 (effective Jan 2026): tax bands, rent relief, pension, NHF
• Ghana — GRA PAYE 7-band system, SSNIT Tier 1/3
• Kenya — KRA 5-band PAYE, NSSF, SHIF, Affordable Housing Levy, personal relief
• South Africa — SARS PAYE 2026/27 brackets, UIF, age-based rebates
• Generic engine — define your own bands for any other country, or run zero-tax for contractor-only teams
• Tax bands live in an editable database table, not hardcoded — correcting a rate is a data edit, not a plugin update

💵 Payroll, Leave & Attendance

• Compute every active employee's payslip in one click, with mid-period proration and void/correct after the fact
• Tokenized self-service payslip links — no login required, print-to-PDF
• Configurable leave types with balance tracking and an approval queue
• Self-service clock in/out with admin manual correction
• Bulk bank-transfer CSV export from a finalized payroll run

📦 Assets, Expenses & Commission

• Track equipment, assign to staff, keep the full assignment history
• Expense claims from self-service — approved amounts flow straight into the next payroll run as a non-taxable reimbursement
• WooCommerce commission sync — attribute real store sales to staff pay via WooCommerce's own product-author field, no extra plugin
