What is Akatua+?
Akatua+ is payroll & HR,
finally done right for Africa.
Built in Ghana, deployed across the continent. Akatua+ removes the
friction of compliance, multi-currency disbursement and disconnected
HR tools — so your team focuses on people, not spreadsheets.
End manual spreadsheets. Akatua+ runs payroll with multi-step approvals, calculates every deduction correctly, and disburses salaries automatically.
GRA tax tables, SSNIT Tier 1/2/3, PAYE — all automatically applied and updated. Never miss a filing deadline or miscalculate a statutory deduction.
Multi-currency, multi-entity, multi-country. Whether you operate in Ghana alone or across West Africa, Akatua+ scales with your footprint.
Leave, performance, contracts, and payroll — unified. Eliminate double data entry and the reconciliation errors that come with fragmented systems.

Everything You Need to
Run Payroll & HR Efficiently
From payroll processing and tax compliance to
employee self-service and reporting, Akatua+ brings
your core HR operations into one secure cloud platform.
Run payroll for hundreds or thousands of employees in minutes. Akatua+ handles complex salary structures, allowances, deductions, overtime, and bonuses — with multi-step approval workflows and full audit history.
Every statutory obligation automatically handled. PAYE calculations reflect current GRA tax bands. SSNIT Tier 1, 2, and 3 contributions are computed and submitted on time, every month.
Serve a multicultural, international workforce. Process payroll in any major currency with real-time or manual exchange rate management. Ideal for multinationals and organisations with expatriate staff.
Connect payroll with the full employee lifecycle. Onboarding, contracts, leave, performance appraisals — all in Akatua+. Changes flow automatically into payroll, eliminating duplicate data entry.
Reduce HR admin burden significantly. Employees access their own payslips, P9 forms, leave balances, and submit requests digitally — on any device, at any time.
A complete, tamper-proof log of every action in the system. Who did what, when, and from which location. Designed for organisations that face internal audits, external audits, and regulatory scrutiny.
From executive dashboards to granular payroll extracts. Build reports without developer help, schedule them to arrive in your inbox, and export in the format your team needs.
