Common questions

How do I get help with my account?

Every plan includes support from our team in Accra. Email support@nobicel.com or use the Help link inside your workspace, and we reply within one business day.

Do you prepare GRA and SSNIT filings?

Yes. Nobicel prepares your monthly PAYE return and SSNIT Tier 1 & 2 schedules from each pay run. You review and approve them, and a copy is kept in your documents.

Can my accountant access my payroll?

Yes. Invite them from Settings, or they can manage your payroll from the free Nobicel partner portal alongside their other clients, with permissions you control.

What if an employee is paid by mobile money?

Add their MTN MoMo or Telecel Cash wallet as their pay method. Mobile money and bank payments are prepared in the same run, with the same payslip.

Is my data safe?

Connections are encrypted, access is role-based and enforced on the server, and every sensitive action is written to an audit log. See our Security page for details.
