A time-critical mandatory process

The instant notification must be submitted before work begins, without exception.

Tax advisors are often not available

Short-notice hires also happen in the evening or on weekends.

Incomplete data

Missing information delays the employee start unnecessarily.

Follow-up questions take time

Calls, emails, waiting time: effort on both sides.

Liability risk in case of delay

Late submission can have legal consequences.

Manual, error-prone, not scalable

As the company grows, the effort grows linearly.

Too many channels, no system

Phone, WhatsApp, email: everything gets mixed up.

This is how it works
for employers and law firms.

Employers submit directly themselves. Law firms keep the overview. Without effort on both sides.

1

Enter company number and start immediately

Registration without a contract and without a setup fee. Just your company number and you are immediately authorized to submit. No waiting for your tax advisor.

2

Submit the instant notification in 30 seconds

Name, date of birth, start of work and send. Direct transmission to the German Pension Insurance. Official PDF confirmation immediately by email.

3

Employee is not starting after all? Cancel in seconds

If a new employee does not start after all, you can cancel the instant notification directly in the system. Straightforward, in the same access, without extra effort.

For tax advisors & payroll offices

1
