Coming Soon

You’ll soon have access to the Nest employer portal with a new look and feel. Our employer portal will have a refreshed look and layout, but functionality will stay the same. Some buttons may be in different places, but the steps you follow won’t change so just keep using the portal as normal. It's the first of several steps we're taking to improve how you interact with Nest, with new functionality coming in the next few months so keep an eye out for further communications

Web services for payroll integration

Employers can run the Nest scheme – whatever payroll system they’re using. Now we’re working with leading payroll providers on web services to make sending data even simpler.

This innovation simplifies the exchange of information between employers and Nest by enabling payroll software to ‘talk’ to Nest. That means employers can manage Nest through their payroll software, meeting their day-to-day auto enrolment duties.

Technical guides

If you're a payroll software developer or provider and would like to develop our web services, please see our technical guides and information on our testing facility.

Other ways of getting information to Nest

You can also submit data to us directly. If you prefer, you can continue to do this after the relevant payroll software provider starts offering our web services functionality.

We’ve created a range of guides and tools to help you find the most practical and cost-effective ways to exchange data with Nest. These include:

CSV templates and XSD files to get all your information in the right order
