Sound familiar?

Four pains we hear every week from Swiss KMU owners.

Excel payroll is a time bomb

One wrong formula, one forgotten age band, and next month has an error in the salary statement.

Withholding tax tables per canton

26 cantons, annual update, rate per civil status and children. Easy to overlook, expensive to correct.

Salary statement XML assembled by hand

Year-end = three days of typing into the cantonal tax portal. Plus correction loops.

Hours, expenses, vacation collected manually

Excel pivot from three sources, half a day per month, error source at every step.

How Stunden handles it

Three concrete steps. Real screens, no slide-ware.

Who is this for?

If you recognise yourself in one of these profiles, the tool will pay off.

Fiduciaries with SME mandates

One platform per mandate, AHV/BVG/UVG rates per insurer, salary statement XML per canton, no mandate-switching chaos.

SME owners with 2–30 staff

You do payroll yourself, Stunden handles the Swiss specialities so you do not have to learn every canton.

HR generalists

You are not a payroll accountant, but you have to close the month. Stunden gives you the workflow without a payroll-software learning curve.

Bexio

Has payroll, but Swissdec export is a paid add-on module, KTG configuration limited.
