Ageras Group, a fast-growing fintech company known for its digital accounting and business software solutions, has successfully completed its 8th strategic acquisition—this time acquiring Employees, a Netherlands-based payroll software firm. This move strengthens Ageras’ position in Europe’s payroll tech landscape and reflects its mission to “eliminate the hassle of payroll” for small and medium-sized businesses.
What This Acquisition Means for Ageras
Ageras’ acquisition of Employes aligns with its core vision: to simplify financial management through technology. With this latest move, the company further cements its ability to offer end-to-end financial tools that reduce administrative burden and boost operational efficiency.
The Growing Need for Simplified Payroll Solutions

Employes is a cloud-based payroll platform known for:
- Easy integration with existing accounting systems

- Automated payslip generation and submission
- Employer and employee self-service portals
By integrating Employees into its ecosystem, Ageras is now equipped to provide a comprehensive financial suite covering accounting, invoicing, payroll, and compliance—entirely digital and user-friendly.
