Export Bank Ready Payroll Slips
If payroll data is required as a hard copy, exporting it into an Excel file and printing out copies is a breeze. In addition to this, you can also import the file back into our Better HR software where changes made to the data will automatically be updated upon upload.
Payroll Disbursement Direct Bank Integration
Disburse employee salaries securely through direct integration with Yoma Bank, KBZ Bank, and uab Bank.
Yoma Bank
Rather than having to go down to a bank physically for monthly payroll transfers, privately and securely transfer relevant salaries into all employees' Yoma Bank accounts with Better HR payroll software.
KBZ Bank
With Better HR Payroll, you can seamlessly transfer salaries directly into employees' KBZ bank accounts. Similar to our Yoma Bank integration, this streamlines the process, eliminating the need for physical visits to the bank for monthly payroll transfers.
uab Bank
Payroll management shouldn't be stressful or complicated. With Better HR's latest integration with uab bank, companies can now automate the entire payroll process from salary calculation to secure, reliable bank transfer in a single, streamlined workflow.
