StackHR Beta Launch: A New Way to Do HR in Africa

Today is a milestone for us. After months of building, testing, and listening to African business owners, we’re officially opening the StackHR beta to a limited cohort of SMEs across Africa. If you’ve been on our waitlist, watch your inbox — invites go out today.

People Operations is the foundation. Every team starts with their people, and StackHR makes that simple. From onboarding a new hire to managing leave requests, performance records, and org structure — everything lives in one place. No more spreadsheets, no more email chains. When someone joins, StackHR walks both you and them through every step.

Payroll is where most African HR software falls short. We built payroll from the ground up for African realities: multi-currency runs, automatic tax and deduction calculations, and salary advances that employees can request directly from the app. Payroll that used to take a full day now takes minutes — and your team gets paid correctly, every time.

Spend Operations closes the loop. Expense claims, multi-level approval workflows, and automatic reimbursements give your finance team full visibility without manual reconciliation. Employees stop waiting weeks to be paid back. Budget management and a full audit trail are included on every paid plan.

Why invite-only? We’re growing deliberately. Our beta cohort gives us the feedback we need to make every experience — from onboarding your first hire to running your first payroll — feel effortless before we open the doors wider. Every beta customer gets dedicated onboarding support and a direct line to our product team.

What’s coming next: expanded seats, deeper integrations with Nigerian banking rails, and a mobile app optimised for field teams. If you’re not already on the waitlist, join today — and if you are, we’ll see you on the inside.
