New look, new name: Employes by Shine

After months of preparation, the moment is finally here: the launch of the new Employes look. Not only did our website get a fresh update, our software did too. And behind the scenes, something even more exciting happened. Employes has joined forces with Shine. Together, we’re combining strengths to support you even better. With pride, we introduce our new look and our new name: Employes by Shine.

Then vs now

Since 2018, our brand has looked clean and simple and it served us well. But while our software kept evolving, our style didn’t quite keep up. We missed something essential: a more human touch. So, it was time for a fresh perspective. A new look that reflects who we are and what we stand for.

We started Employes because we believed payroll administration should be easier. Less hassle, more clarity. Less dependency, more control. That mission hasn’t changed. But with our new identity, you can see it right away: smart software, plain language, and real people ready to help. No detours. No confusion. Just: done right, straight away.

That also means you’re never doing it alone. You do it together, with your team, your employees, and your accountant. That’s what Employes is all about: connection. Whether you’re just getting started or already growing fast.

“With Employes, you don’t need payroll expertise. That’s what sets us apart. My hope is that every employer can confidently say: I’ve got my payroll under control.
— Rob Kroezen, Founder of Employes

You stay in control; we’re here when you need us.
