Multi-Entity & Pay Groups

Scale from one company to many — without the chaos.

Whether you run a group of companies, a franchise, or separate trading entities, Kore keeps each organisation completely isolated — yet manageable from one login.

Multiple legal entities — Each with its own PAYE reference, employer address, and HMRC setup.
Separate pay groups — Weekly paid, monthly salaried, hourly contractors — all running independently.
Consolidated reporting — Group-level dashboards to see your total payroll spend across all entities.
Role-based access — Payroll managers restricted to their own entity; administrators can see everything.
Separate bank accounts — Each entity pays from its own account with its own BACS export.
