Approve site hours, overtime, mileage and allowances without waiting for a laptop.
THE PAYROLL PROBLEM
For teams working on sites, routes, shifts and events, the person approving payroll is often away from the office when payday decisions are due.
FROM WORK COMPLETED TO PAYSLIP
Workmax connects work completed away from the office to the payroll run, so mobile payroll is part of the operating workflow rather than a separate admin task.
Most payroll products start at payroll. Workmax starts with the shifts, jobs, timesheets and approvals that create the pay run.
WHO THIS HELPS
Mobile payroll matters most when hours, overtime, allowances and approvals are created outside the office.
Approve site hours, overtime, mileage and allowances without waiting for a laptop.
Keep payroll moving across contract sites, night shifts and mobile supervisors.
Handle variable hours, late rota changes and seasonal staff when the venue is still busy.
Review store shifts, absences and manager approvals from wherever the day takes you.
Bring routes, hours, expenses and driver pay items into the payroll review flow.
Stay on top of site cover, night work, relief shifts and agency-style pay changes.
Connect rota changes, shifts, overtime, expenses and payroll sign-off in one mobile workflow.
Turn jobs, timesheets, expenses and manager approvals into payroll without office handoffs.
BUILT FOR MANAGERS ON THE MOVE
When your day is split between sites, customers, shifts, rota changes and approvals, payroll should not depend on getting back to a desktop.
WHAT MOBILE PAYROLL ACTUALLY SAVES
The outcome is not a smaller payroll screen. The outcome is payroll that keeps moving when the working day pulls you away from the office.

Check gross pay, deductions, net pay, variances, zero-pay employees, and unsynced payroll items before anything moves to HMRC.
Run payroll through a workflow that supports HMRC FPS submission, with EPS and year-end actions handled as part of the wider payroll process.
Payslips, employee payments, pension submissions, and HMRC payment reminders stay connected to the payroll run instead of living in separate tools.
See whether people data, approvals, time off, expenses, pensions, and timesheets are ready before you commit the pay run.
Bring shift-linked hours, earnings, deductions, expenses, and payroll items into one review flow instead of stitching spreadsheets together.
Review gross pay, deductions, net pay, variances, zero-pay employees, and exceptions before submitting payroll.
Complete payday with payslips, employee payment actions, pension submissions, and HMRC payment reminders tied to the run.
Workmax connects workforce data to payroll so deskless, shift-based and multi-site employers can move from readiness checks to review, HMRC submission, payslips, payments, pensions, and reminders with fewer handoffs.

Spot the blockers before payroll: missing approvals, people data issues, time off, expenses, pension setup, and feed items that need attention.
Shift-linked timesheets, hours, earnings, and payroll items flow into the pay run so review starts from cleaner data.
Check gross pay, deductions, net pay, variances, zero-pay employees, and unsynced payroll items before submission.
Submit payroll, handle HMRC RTI actions, publish payslips, and keep payment, pension, and HMRC reminders attached to the run.

Workmax gives payroll admins a clear view of what needs attention before submission: approvals, timesheets, expenses, time off, pension setup, people data, and payroll feed items.

Shift-linked timesheets, earnings, adjustments, and unsynced payroll items stay visible in the payroll workflow so the employer can resolve issues before the run is submitted.

Review payroll like an employer, not a payslip viewer. Workmax brings earnings, deductions, net pay, employer costs, variances, and exceptions into the payroll decision point.

Submit payroll with HMRC RTI support, including FPS submission and the EPS or year-end handling that may be needed after the main pay run.

Payroll does not end at submit. Workmax helps employers finish with employee payslips, payment actions, pension submissions, and HMRC payment reminders attached to the run.
MOBILE PAYROLL BUYER'S GUIDE
Many tools have something mobile. The question is whether the employer can run the payroll workflow, or whether mobile access only covers payslips, browser access, payments, or disconnected time tracking.
Employees can view payslips, P60s, leave, or profile details on mobile, while payroll is still prepared and submitted somewhere else.
Best for
Reducing employee payroll questions after the run is already complete.
Workmax view
Workmax supports the employer workflow before payslips are published.
Cloud payroll may open on a phone, but the review workflow is often still designed around a desktop browser and larger tables.
Best for
Emergency access when a laptop is unavailable.
Workmax view
Workmax is built around mobile review, approval, submission, and follow-up.
Payment tools can help money move after payroll is calculated, but they do not replace payroll readiness, RTI, payslips, pensions, HR, time, or expenses.
Best for
Funding or approving payments once payroll is already complete.
Workmax view
Workmax handles the payroll operation before and after the payment step.
Mobile time tools collect clock-ins and timesheets, but payroll still requires exports, imports, manual checks, and separate approval.
Best for
Teams that only need better clock-in data.
Workmax view
