The Fine Print, In Plain English
Live rules — these update with our current settings, so what you read here is what you'll be billed.
You pay for employees beyond that. After the first 6 months, you also pay for the first 20 employees moving forward.
Each additional employee is ₱100 per month, or ₱1,000 ₱1,200 per year when billed annually.
Join on or before the 15th of the month and that employee costs the full ₱100; from the 16th onwards it's ₱50 — half the month, half the price. Full rate from the next renewal. Annual seats are prorated by whole months instead.
Today's example: 1 seat × ₱100.00 × ½ month (Sep 26 – Sep 30)
Monthly plans renew on the 1st of each calendar month; annual plans renew on your plan anniversary. Your invoice is issued the day before the new period starts.
Every annual employee shares one anniversary date, so seats added later are prorated up to it. One invoice, one date.
If an invoice goes unpaid you have a 7-day grace period after the due date to settle it.
Everything you need to pick the right plan.

Answers to common questions
Invite them one at a time from the People screen, or upload a CSV using the bulk import template. Each person gets an email invite and completes their own profile — you never have to type their details for them.
Yes. Approval routing is configured per request type, so leave, overtime, and other requests can each follow their own chain of approvers.
Open the payroll period, review the attendance and adjustments trellis has already gathered, then generate payslips. Statutory deductions are computed for you.
trellis computes BIR withholding tax alongside SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG contributions from the current statutory tables, using each employee's salary structure.
Yes. Export your existing records to CSV and use the bulk import template. Our onboarding team can help map your columns if you are switching platforms.
Employees added between the 1st and the 15th of the month are billed the full ₱100 for that month. From the 16th onwards you pay ₱50 — half the month, half the price. Either way they are billed the full rate from the next renewal. Annual seats are different: they are prorated by whole months up to your plan anniversary.
From the end of your first 6 months, every active employee is billed at the per-employee rate — including your first 20. Nobody is switched off: your team keeps working, and you add paid seats to cover everyone before adding anyone new. We email you 30 days and 7 days before the date, and on the day.
