    WhatsApp payslips

    Secure delivery of payslips via WhatsApp — POPIA-compliant, with the PDF behind a signed portal link.

    Full definition

    WhatsApp payslips deliver each employee a WhatsApp message with a secure signed link to their personal payslip PDF. Payroll Africa uses the official Meta WhatsApp Business API and never puts payslip content in the message body, keeping POPIA and payroll confidentiality intact.
