Payroll software, built for the Emirates
Most payroll software treats the UAE as a configuration option. We started from the opposite end: WPS, gratuity, visas and Labour Law are the product, not a regional add-on.
Why we built Lifeguard Payroll
Payroll here is not just payroll. There is the WPS submission, the gratuity provision nobody updated, a labour card quietly expiring, and leave entitlements that follow Labour Law rather than whatever the last system did. Most of the workforce is expatriate, which adds a documents problem on top of a money problem.
Plenty of teams still hold all this together in spreadsheets. It works, in the sense that the salaries go out, but it works because one person is carrying it in their head and staying late in the last week of the month.
We built Lifeguard Payroll so that job does not depend on that person. Hiring, paying, document expiries and the final settlement sit in one system that already knows the UAE rules, so the compliance part happens whether or not anyone remembered it.

Our values
Compliance first
WPS, MOHRE and Labour Law are where we start, not a module we added later.
Simple to use
If a payroll clerk needs training to run a payroll, we have designed it badly.
Support in your timezone
A UAE team, reachable on WhatsApp, who know what a SIF file is without being told.
Built for the Gulf
Not an American product with AED added to a dropdown. The rules here are different.
Based in Dubai, serving the UAE
Being here matters more than it sounds. When a rule changes we hear about it the same week, and when you call with a problem you are not explaining the UAE to someone in another timezone before you can explain the actual issue.
Want to see it on your own payroll?
Half an hour, your numbers, no slide deck. We will show you the WPS run, the gratuity calculation and the visa tracking, and answer whatever you want to ask.
