Net pay calculator

Work out your month.

Enter your hourly wage, tax class and your night, Sunday and public holiday hours and see your net pay, the values per year and the employer costs right away. Or work backwards from your desired net pay to the gross you need. The calculator uses the same wage tax calculation as the app, checked against the calculator of the German Federal Ministry of Finance.
