BrightPay Desktop to Cloud: Ireland Migration Offer
BrightPay Cloud free until 31 December 2026, and 50% off the additional cost, for BrightPay Desktop customers in Ireland moving to the cloud.
This offer is available to existing BrightPay Desktop customers migrating to BrightPay Cloud in Ireland only. All offers end on 31 December 2026.
Offer details
Existing BrightPay Desktop customers in Ireland who move to BrightPay Cloud and sign up between August and December 2026 will receive two offers:
Free access offer: free access to BrightPay Cloud until end of day 31 December 2026, followed by a 12-month paid period.
50% additional cost discount: a 50% discount on the additional cost they incur as a result of moving from BrightPay Desktop to BrightPay Cloud (see “50% Discount on Additional Cost” below).
The free access offer
Your contract term depends on when you sign up. In every case you pay for 12 months and receive free access until 31 December 2026 on top of that paid period:
Sign up in | You pay for | Total contract (free + paid) |
August 2026 | 12 months | 17 months |
September 2026 | 12 months | 16 months |
October 2026 | 12 months | 15 months |
November 2026 | 12 months | 14 months |
December 2026 | 12 months | 13 months |
50% discount on additional cost
Eligible customers will also receive a 50% discount on the additional cost they incur as a result of moving from BrightPay Desktop to BrightPay Cloud.
How the additional cost is calculated:
Your additional cost is the difference between your BrightPay Cloud subscription price and the price you paid for your BrightPay Desktop licence in the previous year (2026).
Additional cost = BrightPay Cloud price − BrightPay Desktop price paid in 2026.
The discount is 50% of that additional cost. The 50% discount does not apply to your full subscription, only to the additional cost.
Worked example (figures are illustrative only):
BrightPay Desktop price paid in 2026 | €400 |
BrightPay Cloud subscription price (as at 1 January 2027) | €600 |
Additional cost (€600 − €400) | €200 |
50% discount (50% of €200) | €100 |
You pay | €500 |
What the discount is based on:
The additional cost is calculated on your BrightPay Cloud subscription and usage as at 1 January 2027.
Any further overages or increases in usage or cost after 1 January 2027 (for example, adding employees, employers, modules or add-ons) are not eligible for the 50% discount and will be charged at the standard rate.
The discount applies to the base subscription price only and not to additional modules, add-ons, or third-party products.
