What Pay covers

Payments for workers and suppliers.

Manage PAYE, umbrella and limited-company contractor payments, along with other supplier payments, in the same platform as your funding and records.

Anytime PAYE

PAYE run around your week, not the other way around. Sweep-up runs mean one missing timesheet does not hold up everyone's pay.

  • Flexible run timing
  • Sweep-up runs for late timesheets
  • Fewer weekly payment blockers

Umbrella & limited-company contractors

Pay contractors across engagement models: PAYE, umbrella and limited company, from the same workflow, without switching systems.

  • Multiple engagement types
  • One consistent process
  • Consistent records each cycle

Supplier payments

Pay the right people at the right time, with less manual effort. Workers, contractors, freelancers and other suppliers, tracked end to end.

  • All supplier types
  • Status visibility per payment
  • Full audit trail

Questions about Pay

What payroll and ops teams ask.

Which worker types can Sonovate pay?

PAYE, umbrella and limited-company contractors, plus other suppliers, all from the same platform and the same weekly workflow.

What happens if a timesheet is submitted late?

Anytime PAYE supports additional runs for late timesheets. Our team can explain the approval requirements and payment timetable for your service.

Is there an audit trail?

Yes. Every pay run leaves a full audit trail: amounts, deductions, timing and worker records, visible in the platform.

Does Pay work with the funding side?

Yes. Pay runs inside the same platform as funding, so the money that funds an invoice and the money that pays a worker share one workflow and one record.
