Say Hello to Statemint 2.0: Beautiful HMRC-Style Payroll Documents, Zero Drama
We have some exciting news to share from the team behind Statemint!
Today, we are officially launching Statemint 2.0 — the biggest, most impactful update to our app so far. Whether you are running payroll for your own small business, managing directors, or handling books for multiple clients, this update is designed to take the friction out of your month-end routine.
Here is a look at what’s new, what’s improved, and why Statemint 2.0 is going to make your admin life a whole lot easier.
Real HMRC-Style Payslips, P60s, and P45s — Generated in One Click
Until now, Statemint was great at tracking your gross pay and tax deductions. But when it came time actually to hand documents to employees or directors, you often had to copy numbers over into templates or type them up manually.
Not anymore.
Statemint 2.0 introduces three brand-new, one-click exports directly on your Payroll screen:
A5 Landscape Payslips: Beautifully formatted PDFs that clearly display current pay period figures alongside cumulative Year-to-Date (YTD) totals for gross pay, Income Tax, National Insurance, pension contributions, and student loans.
P60 End of Year Certificates: Redesigned to closely mirror official HMRC stationery — complete with recognisable orange section bars, neatly boxed fields, statutory payment breakdowns, and the full NI contribution band table (Lower Earnings Limit, Primary Threshold, and Upper Earnings Limit).
P45 Leaving Certificates: Formatted into thirteen clear, numbered boxes matching the official Details of Employee Leaving Work layout. Everything from PAYE reference numbers and leaving dates to cumulative pay and tax is consolidated onto a single, clean page.
“Note: Every generated document is clearly labeled as software-generated rather than an official statutory HMRC pre-printed form, but they are styled so closely to the originals that your team and accountants will instantly recognize them.”
Multi-Client PAYE References
If you handle payroll across multiple companies or clients, keeping track of separate tax references can get messy fast.
Statemint 2.0 fixes this by letting you set custom PAYE references and registered addresses for each client, cleanly overriding your main firm-wide defaults. It follows the exact same intuitive pattern you already use for VAT numbers.
Best of all, your personal accountant details (UTR, NI number, owner name) stay right where they belong, keeping client-specific tax data organised without disturbing your core settings.
The Tax Year Fix (No More Calendar Gymnastics!)
We’ll be honest: this one started as a bug fix, but it turned into one of our most important core features.
Previously, Statemint grouped payroll periods using whatever custom financial year you set for your main business accounts (like December to November). While that works great for company accounts and VAT, UK law dictates that PAYE always runs strictly from 6 April to 5 April.
Statemint 2.0 completely decouples payroll logic from your custom accounting calendar. Payroll now strictly follows the statutory UK tax year behind the scenes. When your P60s state "Tax year to 5 April," you can rest easy knowing the math matches the law to the day.
