Deel Local Payroll, powered by PaySpace, has signed on as a Gold partner for the 2025 Finance Indaba.

Deel Local Payroll, powered by PaySpace, is a cloud-native payroll and HR platform built for businesses that want full control over payroll without the limitations of legacy systems.

Founded by a team of payroll pioneers, PaySpace was created to challenge the status quo. They took a first-principles approach to building something new: a scalable, multi-tenant platform with real-time, compliant payroll built into its core.

In 2024, PaySpace was acquired by Deel, a global leader in payroll and HR solutions. Deel retained PaySpace as an independent subsidiary, continuing to serve customers across Africa, the UK and Brazil.

On October 16, the Sandton Convention Centre will host Africa’s largest conference and finance exhibition, which will draw over 3,000 financial experts. Along with live interactive sessions and top-notch presenters, a comprehensive overview of the latest tools, technology and techniques that will assist the success of finance teams will be given.
