Branded payslips your employees can download themselves

PayrollOctober 7, 2026·2 min read·by the Teamdott team

A payslip is the one document every employee reads every month — and in most small companies it is still a Word template someone fills in by hand, or a generic printout from accounting software with no logo and someone else's font.

Design it once

Teamdott's payslip designer is a live editor: pick one of five layout patterns (colour band, classic letterhead, minimal, side panel, boxed), set your three brand colours with hex codes, drop in your logo, address and signatory, and watch the preview re-render with real numbers from a real employee as you type.

Components, not hard-coding

Earnings and deductions are rows you define: attendance-based basic pay, percentage allowances, fixed travel allowances, pension percentages, withheld tax — each with its own calculation type, optional caps and rounding. The slip explains each line ("20% of basic", "9% of gross") so employees stop asking what the numbers mean. Attendance summaries and employer contributions can be shown or hidden with a toggle.

Distribution is nobody's job

Why it matters beyond looks: a consistent, branded payslip reads as a company that has its act together — to employees, to their landlords and lenders, and to any authority that ever asks for one.
