Monthly fee
When does billing begin?
The monthly fee begins starting the month the Company is eligible to run a payroll (i.e. the date the Company's implementation status is set to Completed), unless that date is more than 6 days prior to the start date at company submission.
In this case, we wait until 6 days prior to that intended start date to commence billing.
Example 1:
Company A has nominated to start using Salaris on December 7th
Company A becomes eligible to run payroll with Salaris on December 4th (3 days prior to nominated start date)
The first month of billing is for the month of December
Example 2:
Company B has nominated to start using Salaris on January 10th
Company B becomes eligible to run payroll with Salaris on December 26th.
As the eligibility date is more than 6 days prior to the intended start date, we wait until 6 days prior to that intended start date (January 4th).
The first month of billing is for the month of January
Fees are charged monthly in arrears (i.e. December's monthly fee will be charged in January).
What if I stop using Salaris?
The monthly fee applies to any month in which Salaris is used, even if it used for part of the month.
For example, if a Company run its final Payroll on February 2nd, the final monthly fee will be charged for the month of February as Salaris was used in that month.
Per employee fee
Salaris charges a fee of $5 for each user who is paid through the platform during a given calendar month.
Only individuals who are paid within the month incur a fee.
Each employee is charged once per month, regardless of how many times they are paid.
These fees are billed in arrears, based on actual usage.
Inactive employees or contractors are not charged.
Additional fees
There may also be additional fees incurred if certain events arise. These fees are listed below. These fees are also charged in arrears, as they are based on actual events.
Any charges incurred during the month will appear on your next monthly invoice.
