HMRC recognised

Givver is officially recognised by HMRC (HM Revenue & Customs) as a payroll software provider. This recognition means our software has met HMRC’s standards, passed their testing process, and is listed on the official GOV.UK site. We’re committed to upholding the quality and compliance that come with this recognition.

Why Customers Are Moving from PayCaptain to Givver

We’ve seen more and more companies switching from PayCaptain to Givver — and for good reason.

Finance teams are facing payroll issues that simply shouldn’t happen in 2025.

Common issues reported with PayCaptain:

  • Student Loan deductions applied incorrectly — even to employees who don’t owe them

  • Tax codes changed without P6 notifications from HMRC

  • Complicated onboarding — with some finance professionals saying they wouldn’t recommend the experience

These aren’t minor issues — they lead to compliance risks, payroll errors, and lost trust.

Why Givver Is Different

We’ve built Givver specifically to prevent these problems and give finance teams peace of mind.

Key reasons teams are switching:

  • ✅ Real-time HMRC sync — we only apply tax code changes when a live P6 or P9 notice is received

  • ✅ Accurate deductions — Student Loans and other statutory payments are only applied when verified by HMRC

  • ✅ Seamless onboarding — we migrate your data, audit it thoroughly, and run payroll in parallel to your current system to ensure everything matches before going live

The Bottom Line

Payroll should be predictable, accurate, and stress-free. If you’re still firefighting issues each month, it may be time to consider a switch.

Let us show you how Givver makes it simple.
