How the payslip generator works

A payslip shows what an employee earned and what was deducted in a pay period. This tool builds one for any Kenyan salary: enter the basic pay and allowances, and it applies the 2026 statutory deductions, PAYE income tax on the KRA bands, NSSF at 6% (capped at KES 108,000), SHIF at 2.75% and the Housing Levy at 1.5%, then shows the net take-home.

It is handy for small employers issuing payslips, for anyone who wants a clean record of their pay, or for checking that the deductions on a real payslip add up. The preview updates as you type, and the PDF prints on a single page.

Payslip generator FAQ

How do I generate a payslip in Kenya?

Enter the employer, employee, pay period, basic salary and any allowances. The generator works out PAYE, NSSF, SHIF and the Housing Levy on 2026 KRA rates and produces a payslip showing gross pay, each deduction and the net take-home. You then download it as a PDF.

Is the payslip generator free?

Yes. Building and previewing the payslip is free. To download the PDF you enter your name, email and phone once, then it unlocks instantly and stays unlocked for the rest of your visit.

Is this an official payslip?

It is an accurate estimate based on 2026 KRA tax bands, NSSF (max KES 6,480), SHIF (2.75%) and the Housing Levy (1.5%). For an official payroll payslip your employer must issue it from their payroll system, but the figures here will match a standard salary closely.

What deductions are shown on the payslip?

PAYE income tax, NSSF pension, SHIF health, and the Affordable Housing Levy are always shown. You can also add HELB and SACCO deductions, which are subtracted after tax.
