CIS Payroll Services

What Is CIS Payroll?

The Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) is a UK tax scheme set by HMRC for contractors and subcontractors in the construction sector. Magic Connect’s CIS payroll service supports businesses that pay subcontractors under CIS by managing deductions, submissions, and payment records, helping businesses remain compliant while ensuring subcontractors are paid accurately and on time.

 

CIS payroll differs from standard PAYE payroll and requires specific handling of verification, deductions, and monthly submissions. Mistakes can lead to penalties, delayed payments, or compliance issues, which is why many construction businesses choose to outsource CIS payroll to a specialist provider.

​

Benefits of Outsourcing CIS Payroll

If you have workers in the construction sector who are not subject to supervision, direction and control, then our CIS payroll specialist will provide a compliant payroll CIS solution tailored to your business.

 

They’ve been helping construction businesses and recruitment agencies deliver reliable, expert and compliant CIS payroll services for over 15 years, saving time and money for businesses and making sure contractors are paid on time, every time! 

 

With very competitive margins and public liability insurance, they also combine their dedicated CIS app for added value support for all their construction workers, with inclusive benefits, wellbeing support and a pay portal for CIS remittance and pension contribution summaries.
 

Their  workers' benefits app doesn’t just make pay more seamless. It takes benefits and welfare provision to the next level too, with access to 100s of discounts every day.

 

Most importantly, it gives every one of your valued workers a level of welfare support like no other, with a 24/7 telephone GP and mental health counsellor hotline, support for carers and a wealth of advice and guidance on health and fitness issues.

Who Our CIS Payroll Service Is Designed For

Our CIS payroll services support construction businesses and recruitment agencies that work with subcontractors across different trades and project types. This includes organisations engaging self-employed workers who are paid under the Construction Industry Scheme and fall outside of PAYE requirements.

 

How Our CIS Payroll Process Works

Our CIS payroll service is designed to be straightforward and reliable for both businesses and subcontractors. Once set up, our partners manage the full CIS payroll process on your behalf, reducing admin and ensuring accurate, timely submissions.

 

Subcontractors are verified under the Construction Industry Scheme, with deductions calculated correctly before payments are processed. Monthly CIS submissions are completed in line with HMRC requirements, and clear remittance statements are provided for every worker.
