Read the breakdown
Every deduction explained, with the formula and the official source.
Why you can trust the figures
Rates, bands, credits and labour rules live in one file, versioned by tax year, each with its official source and the date a human checked it. The calculation engine has 105 automated tests covering band boundaries, shifts that cross midnight and years where a rate changes mid-way.
Understand your payslip in seconds
Three deductions decide what lands in your account. Here is what each one is, in plain language.
Income tax
Twenty per cent up to your standard rate band, forty above it. Your tax credits then come off the tax itself — not off your income.
Universal Social Charge
A separate charge on your gross pay, in bands. No credits, no relief, and a pension contribution does not reduce it.
Social insurance
Not really a tax: it buys entitlement to Illness Benefit, Jobseeker’s Benefit and the State Pension. Nothing below €352 a week.
What actually lands
Gross minus the three deductions, plus anything you have agreed to — pension, bike-to-work, union dues.
Your next euro
The rate on additional pay. It is what decides whether overtime is worth it, and it is always higher than your average rate.
Your real hourly rate
Net pay divided by every hour you are away from home, unpaid breaks included. Usually a good deal lower than the rate on your contract.
Where do these figures come from?
Rates, bands, credits and labour rules live in one versioned file, each with its official source and the date a person checked it. Nothing updates itself.

Why pay for a calculator?
Because the rules move. Rates, bands and credits change every Budget, and PRSI changed part-way through 2026. Premium is what pays for somebody to check each figure against Revenue and keep the tools current.
The basic calculator stays free and unlimited, with no account.
