Pay Stub Generator — Free Online Tool

The Pay Stub Generator creates a payslip showing gross pay, itemised deductions, and net pay for a pay period, formatted as a document you can print or send to an employee.

A payslip's function is transparency: it shows an employee exactly how the number that arrived in their account was arrived at. The standard components are gross earnings — broken into regular hours, overtime, and any bonus — then deductions listed individually, then net pay, with year-to-date totals alongside so the employee can see the cumulative picture. Deductions vary by country but generally split into statutory items (income tax, social insurance or national insurance, pension) and voluntary ones (additional pension contributions, insurance, salary sacrifice arrangements).

Two things to be clear about. First, the tool formats a payslip from figures you supply — it does not calculate statutory tax or social insurance for your jurisdiction, and those calculations are specific, frequently updated, and carry legal consequences if wrong. The figures need to come from your payroll process or your accountant. Second, in most jurisdictions providing an itemised payslip is a legal obligation with a required set of fields and a required timeframe, so it is worth checking local requirements rather than assuming a generic template satisfies them.

Creating a payslip for someone who was not actually paid, or misstating figures on one, is document fraud — these are records employees rely on for mortgages, visas, and benefits claims.

Everything is generated in your browser; employee names and pay figures are never uploaded.
