Abacus does not provide vouchers. It supplies templates and other essential documents enabling an employer to run its scheme in-house in full conformity with tax regulations but without the expense of buying vouchers from a voucher provider. Subscribers pay just the annual fee (see tariff) related to the number of people on the payroll. Using our materials, an employer can easily set its scheme up in less than half the time that its management would spend discussing arrangements with a third party provider seeking to generate commission for filtering sacrificed salary on its way to the employee’s child carer. Or the employer can save money by switching to Abacus.
