01

Bring your numbers

Review. Approve. Export.

Your troncmaster approves the allocation. Download the payroll file and keep a record of every decision.

share worked out?”

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Before you
make the split.

Do we need to change our payroll?+

The MVP exports gross allocations as a CSV for your payroll process. A production launch will validate the exact format with your provider. Troncly does not currently calculate PAYE or submit HMRC returns.

Who decides how tips are split?+

Your appointed troncmaster determines the allocation rules and approves distributions. Business administrators and troncmaster accounts have separate permissions, enforced on the server.

Does this automatically make our scheme compliant?+

No. The software helps document and run your scheme, but legal and tax outcomes depend on how it operates in practice. Rules, independence and payroll arrangements need appropriate review.

Can I try it without signing up to a subscription?+

Yes. Use the free calculator or create a saved business workspace. No subscription or payment is taken. Pilot evaluation is available; use fictional staff details until your privacy and operating arrangements are reviewed.
