About this app
What will actually land in your account?
NetPay estimates take-home pay and freelance tax obligations across several European countries, and compares job offers properly.
EMPLOYEE MODULE
Enter gross salary and your situation — marital status or tax class, children, age, church membership, health insurance type and region where relevant — and see a line-by-line breakdown of income tax and each social contribution, with monthly and annual net shown as a chart and table.
FREELANCE MODULE
Estimated annual income, business expenses and VAT status produce an estimated tax and social contribution liability, plus how much to set aside each month.
OFFER COMPARATOR
Compare up to three job offers side by side across different countries, including benefits you enter yourself and relative living costs — for a genuinely comparable take-home figure. Raise Simulator shows how much of a pay rise you actually keep.
