FAQ

Before you sign up

Yes. People Cloud's Payroll Software calculates, stamps and manages payroll for companies that already have — or are actively registering — a Mexican legal entity and an IMSS employer registration (registro patronal). It is not a way to hire employees in Mexico without one (that would be an Employer of Record service, which is not what this product does). If you are still exploring entering the Mexican market, we are happy to map out how the platform will support your team from day one, once your entity is set up.

People Cloud's payroll module is a cloud-based software that lets you calculate, stamp and manage your company's payroll automatically. It includes ISR, IMSS and INFONAVIT calculations plus statutory benefits, bulk CFDI 4.0 stamping, IDSE integration, incident tracking and tax reporting for companies with 50+ employees in Mexico.

Yes. People Cloud automatically stamps payroll receipts in CFDI 4.0 format, meeting all of SAT's (Mexico's tax authority) current requirements. The system updates automatically whenever tax regulations change, with nothing manual required on your end.

IDSE is IMSS's (Mexico's Social Security Institute) online system for registering employee changes — new hires, terminations, salary changes and disability leave. People Cloud's IDSE integration automates this process, submitting changes directly from the platform without manually logging into the IMSS government portal.

Yes. People Cloud's payroll module lets you manage multiple Mexican legal entities and employer registrations from a single platform — ideal for corporate groups or companies operating across different Mexican states.

Implementation timing depends on your company's size and payroll structure. On average, companies with 50 to 300 employees are up and running in 2 to 4 weeks. People Cloud's team supports the entire setup and configuration process.

The Payroll Software ($109 MXN/employee) is a tool your own team uses to calculate, stamp and manage payroll. Payroll Outsourcing ($279 MXN/employee) is a full-service option where People Cloud's specialists handle the entire process — calculation, stamping, payment file generation and legal compliance — without your team having to get involved in the operational details.

Yes. Our team can support your headquarters and Mexico-based staff in English throughout onboarding and ongoing support, in addition to Spanish.

We offer the best payroll system to manage your entire workforce in Mexico — built for companies with their own legal entity here, whether you're already operating or just setting one up.
