Keep all payroll information organized

Instead of creating a new document for every pay period, use a consistent template that keeps earnings, deductions, taxes, and net pay presented in a clear format. Having standardized records also makes it easier to review past payments whenever you need them.

Once you've entered your branding or preferred layout, simply replace the employee details and payment information for each new pay period. There's no need to recreate the document from scratch every week or month.

Customize every section

The templates are fully editable in Canva and can also be used as printable PDFs. Change company information, employee details, colors, fonts, or payment categories to match your workflow.

Create easy-to-read pay stubs without subscribing to payroll software. The templates provide a format that helps you present payment information while remaining simple to edit.

This is a one-time purchase that can be used repeatedly for future payroll periods: duplicate the file, update the figures, and generate a new pay stub whenever required.
