PEPM vs PEPP

What is PEPM vs PEPP?

PEPM (per-employee-per-month) bills a flat monthly fee for every employee, while PEPP (per-employee-per-pay-period) bills per employee each time payroll runs, so the total varies with how often you pay staff.

PEPM is the standard HR-software model: one predictable monthly amount per head, calculated the same way whether payroll runs weekly or monthly. PEPP is specific to payroll pricing - a biweekly-paid company runs payroll roughly 26 times a year, so a PEPP fee gets charged 26 times, not 12, and the effective monthly cost can end up higher than an equivalent PEPM rate.

Neither model changes the core problem with per-employee pricing: the bill still scales with headcount, and with PEPP it also scales with pay frequency. HREvio does not run payroll, so neither model applies to it - its flat monthly plans (EUR 29-99) cover HR up to a seat limit regardless of how many people you pay or how often.
