We use the right state

We apply the bands
Consolidated relief and the graduated PAYE bands are computed per payslip, every run.
We remit on time
The right amount reaches the right state IRS before the deadline, with a record you can export.
Same salary, different state, different PAYE
An ₦850,000 monthly gross produces a different PAYE figure depending on the state — SparkPay handles the difference for you.
What Nigerian businesses ask us
Each employee's tax state is set on their profile. SparkPay applies that state's PAYE bands and remits to the correct state internal revenue service.
Yes. The consolidated relief allowance and the graduated tax bands are applied on every payslip, so the PAYE figure reflects current Nigerian tax rules.
Statutory deductions like pension and NHF reduce taxable income before PAYE is computed. SparkPay accounts for them in the same run.
PAYE is generally remitted by the 10th of the following month. SparkPay schedules remittances ahead of the deadline so you do not miss it.
