RTI Compliant Payroll
Payroll Done Right, Every Month. No Surprises.
Payroll is one of the most time-sensitive compliance obligations your business faces. Miss an RTI submission and HMRC will know about it within days. Get director pay wrong and you could face an unexpected tax bill.

We handle every aspect: setting up your PAYE scheme, running monthly payroll, producing payslips, managing auto-enrolment, and making all RTI submissions on time.
As one of the very first accounting firms in the UK to adopt Xero with our clients, we run payroll digitally through Xero — RTI compliant and connected to your accounts, so everything stays in one modern, accurate system.
Payroll is fully included in your fixed monthly fee — no per-payslip charges, no surprise invoices at year end.

Common Questions
Payroll FAQs
How easy is it to switch accountants, and can you take over partway through the year?
Very easy — and yes, you can switch at any point in the year. As one of the very first UK firms to use Xero with clients, we make the handover seamless: we request your records, migrate your books into Xero, and handle the transfer to HMRC and Companies House for you. There's no disruption to your deadlines and no need to wait for year end.
What is RTI payroll?
Real Time Information (RTI) requires employers to submit payroll data to HMRC on or before each pay day — not annually as was previously the case. Every time you run payroll, the data goes directly to HMRC. Figures UK manages all RTI submissions on your behalf as part of your fixed monthly fee.
Do I need to set up auto-enrolment for my employees?
If you employ at least one person aged between 22 and State Pension age who earns above £10,000 per year, you are legally required to auto-enrol them into a workplace pension. Figures UK handles your auto-enrolment duties — assessing eligibility, managing contributions, and filing with The Pensions Regulator.
How much should a director take as salary?
The most tax-efficient approach for most directors is to take a salary at the Secondary Threshold (currently around £9,100 per year) and draw the rest as dividends. This preserves your National Insurance record while minimising employer and employee NI contributions. Figures UK provides tailored director pay advice as part of your service.
What is the deadline for submitting payroll?
Under RTI, payroll must be submitted to HMRC on or before the date employees are paid. HMRC PAYE payments themselves are due by the 22nd of the month following the tax month (or 19th by post). Figures UK ensures every submission and payment deadline is met.
Is payroll included in the monthly accounting fee?
Yes. Payroll is included within your fixed all-inclusive monthly fee — £73/month for sole traders on Making Tax Digital and from £220/month for limited companies. There are no additional charges for running payroll, producing payslips, or managing auto-enrolment.
