How do I choose and set up my subscription?
This article walks you through choosing the right Salary.lu plan and setting it up. It applies to two types of customers:
- Companies: you own a company and manage its payroll directly.
- Fiduciaries: you manage payroll for several client companies. Make sure you're on your main company account before you start.
You can also explore Salary on a free account first, with no card required, before subscribing.
Choosing your plan
Salary.lu offers three plans. Choose the one that fits your payroll volume and how you prefer to pay:
- FLEX (15,00 € per payslip): billed monthly with no long-term commitment. Best for occasional or variable payroll. Email and chat support.
- STANDARD (12,50 € per payslip): billed monthly by SEPA Direct Debit. Best for steady, predictable monthly payroll. Email and chat support.
- PLUS (from 10,00 € per payslip, lower with volume): billed annually in advance, with a lower per-payslip rate as your volume increases. Best for higher volumes and planning ahead. Priority email, chat, and phone support.
To choose your plan:
- Log in to your Salary.lu account.
- Go to the subscription page at https://salary.lu/subscriptions.

Setting up your subscription
STANDARD and PLUS plans
These plans are set up with SEPA Direct Debit:
- Add your bank details (BIC and IBAN).
- Download the SEPA Direct Debit mandate.
- Fill it out, sign it, and upload a copy.
- Send the signed copy to your bank.
- Check the box to confirm.
PLUS plan
In addition to the steps above, enter the annual quantity of payslips you expect to generate.
How payslips are counted
You're billed per payslip, but only one payslip per employee per month is invoiced. You can regenerate or correct a payslip for the same month as often as you need without paying more, and non-periodic payslips (bonuses, 13th month, one-off corrections) aren't invoiced.
Estimating your PLUS quantity
Predicting your annual payslip quantity can be tricky. We recommend taking last year's quantity and adding a buffer of 10% to 20% for fluctuations. Two rules govern how PLUS handles your committed quantity:
- If you go over: any payslips beyond your committed quantity are billed at the STANDARD rate of 12,50 € for the rest of the period.
- If you have some left: at the end of the period, your unused payslips carry over to the next period, as long as you used at least half of your committed quantity. If you used less than 50%, the unused balance doesn't carry over.
Example: Your company subscribes to PLUS with 180 prepaid payslips, enough for 15 employees. If you've used 150 by the end of the period, that's well over half your committed quantity, so all 30 unused payslips carry over to the next period. This gives you added flexibility for your planning.
