Price of payroll outsourcing

The cost of payroll outsourcing depends on the number of employees and payroll complexity (e.g. hourly wages, collective agreements, reimbursements and pay types). For private companies with +75 employees, price is also about responsibility, vulnerability and management time - especially if payroll currently depends on one or a few people.

Typical price: 80-250 DKK/employee/mo. (excluding licences). The price range typically applies to companies with +75 employees; licences for payroll/time/HR systems are not included, and hourly wages, collective agreements, many supplements or frequent changes will often increase the price.

Final price depends on your setup.

What determines the price of labour outsourcing?

To give a fair price, we start with your setup. Here are the factors that typically affect the price the most:

  • Number of employees (and how many changes per month)
  • Complexity: hourly wage, allowance, bonus, multiple salary types
  • Collective labour agreement and/or special rules
  • Holiday, opt-out, pension and reimbursements (scope and frequency)
  • Number of payroll runs per month (e.g. one or more)
  • Interaction with time tracking and payroll system
  • Desired service level and reporting

Companies with similar labour conditions will often be at the low end of the price range, while more complex setups will naturally be higher.

Payroll outsourcing at Dansk Løn Service

3 typical price scenarios

(so you can mirror your setup)

Scenario 1: “Standard”

If you have a clear payroll structure with few changes per month and a fixed input rhythm, the price is typically lower because the process is stable and predictable.

Scenario 2: “Variable salary”

If you have many hourly employees, allowances, bonuses or frequent changes, the price will typically be higher because there is more data processing and more checkpoints per payroll run.

Scenario 3: “Agreement / high complexity”

If you have a collective agreement, many payroll types, reimbursements and special rules, the price is typically higher because it requires more professional payroll management and quality assurance.
