About PayCore
Most payroll software is sold as a subscription priced per employee. As your team grows, so does the bill, every month, for as long as you use it.
PayCore was built to change that. One license covers unlimited employees, the software runs on your own computer, and your payroll data never leaves your control.
Development and support are handled directly by the PayCore team, so every question is answered by the people who build the software.
Frequently asked questions
Is there payroll software without a monthly subscription?
Yes. PayCore is a one-time purchase: you pay once for a license, with no subscription, no renewal and no per-employee charges.
How much does PayCore cost?
A PayCore license costs $50 USD, paid once. It covers unlimited employees for your business, with no monthly fee, no subscription and no per-employee charge.
Is PayCore free?
Downloading PayCore is free, and so is a live demo with our team. To use it you need a license, which is a one-time payment of $50: no monthly fee, no subscription and no charge per employee.
Can I try it before I buy?
Yes. We offer a free live demo by video call. Contact us on WhatsApp or by email to arrange a time.
Does PayCore payroll software work offline?
Yes. Payroll, reports, backups and activation all work offline. Only the optional AI assistant uses the internet, with your own Google Gemini API key.
What should a good salary management system include?
For a small business, look for employee records with salary structures, automatic monthly payroll with overtime and leave, loan and advance tracking, payslips and reports, and end-of-service calculations. Also check the pricing: per-employee subscriptions get expensive as you grow. PayCore includes all of these with a one-time license.
Can PayCore replace my Excel payroll sheet?
Yes. You enter your employees and their salary structure once, and PayCore calculates overtime, unpaid leave, loan installments and net pay every month, then produces payslips and an Excel report for your accountant.
Can I move it to a new computer?
Yes. Install PayCore on the new computer, activate it with the same email and license key, and restore your data from a backup.
Does it handle payroll in Oman and the Gulf?
Yes. Omani Rial, Kuwaiti Dinar and Bahraini Dinar use 3 decimals, and AED, SAR and QAR are built in. PayCore also has a full Arabic interface, end-of-service gratuity with your own rate, and WPS bank-transfer rules for each employee.
What if I lose my license key?
Contact us with the email address the license was registered to, and we'll send it again.
Is my data safe?
Your payroll data stays on your computer and is never sent to us. The only exception is the optional AI assistant: if you turn it on, your payroll records are sent to Google with each question. Access is protected by a PIN, and backup files are not encrypted, so store them securely.
