About Employes

The roll-up of Dutch payroll software company Employes marks Danish-founded Ageras' second acquisition this year and its most significant since its 2024 takeover of French business banking platform Shine from Société Générale, says Ageras' CEO, signalling that change is coming for the way small businesses across Europe pay their wages.

Ageras, a leading software platform for accounting, admin and banking for small businesses in Europe, has acquired Dutch payroll software company Employes, marking its second acquisition in 2025 and its eighth to date. Ageras has already enhanced its local presence across other large European markets, for instance with the acquisition of Shine from Société Générale in 2024, and with the rollup of Employes, Ageras strengthens its position in the Netherlands by adding payroll software to its growing offering for Dutch small businesses.
