At any point you can revoke access to QuickFile by clicking the corresponding “Revoke” button next to the BrightPay listing.

How does it work?

BrightPay is a payroll software that makes it quick and easy to manage your payroll. BrightPay will take care of the following routine tasks.

  • Add and amend employee profiles
  • Create a pay run and generate the corresponding employee payslips and liabilities
  • Handles all aspects of auto enrolment
  • Electronically file your Real Time Information (RTI) submissions to HMRC
  • Backup your data to the cloud
  • Provide a self service online dashboard where your employees can download their payslips

By linking BrightPay to QuickFile, every time you run the payroll a set of journals will be posted into your QuickFile account. This keeps your accounts in balance and ensures that the correct liabilities are reported on your balance sheet.

Once you have generated your token in the QuickFile App Marketplace you can input that token into your BrightPay software. You can find a more detailed guide on this process below.
