Free simulators
Run the numbers before you decide
Free tools built on the Portuguese rules in force, the same ones Selfcare uses to run payroll every month. No sign-up, no email, no small print.
What does a salary cost?
From gross pay to the company's total cost and the employee's net pay: employer Segurança Social (Portuguese social security), IRS (personal income tax) at the tables in force, subsídio de alimentação (meal allowance), and holiday and Christmas allowances.
Simulate →Annual leave in the year you're hired
How many days of leave someone gets when they join mid-year (art. 239 of the Código do Trabalho, the Labour Code), with a calendar to book the first block as in Selfcare.
Simulate →Ajudas de custo (per diem)
How much of a per diem is exempt from IRS and Segurança Social, based on departure and return times and the 2026 limit.
Simulate →How much do I get per km?
Km in your own car on company business: what you get per trip and per month, and how much is exempt, up to €0.40 per km.
Simulate →Your company's pay gap
Measure the gap between women and men the way the EU pay transparency directive requires: by role, with the 5% threshold flagged.
Simulate →Coming soon: Net salary 2026. What's left at the end of the month, with IRS Jovem (youth income tax relief), duodécimos (allowances paid in twelfths) and other variants.
These numbers, done every month without the effort
Selfcare uses exactly these rules to run your team's payroll, with payslips, DMR (monthly pay return), SEPA and reports included.
