Connect Celery with APS

Calculate the correct pension contributions

Good news for employers and payroll administrators in Sint Maarten: Celery payroll software is now integrated with the Algemeen Pensioenfonds Sint Maarten (APS). This new integration makes the process of pension contributions significantly simpler, more transparent, and less error-prone.

The APS pension calculation is not straightforward. Several factors must be taken into account when calculating contributions, such as the pensionable salary, the franchise, and the percentages for both employee and employer contributions. Doing these calculations manually and then correctly processing them in the APS employer portal not only takes time but also increases the risk of errors.

With the APS integration in Celery, you no longer have to do this yourself. Based on the data in your payroll administration, Celery automatically calculates the correct contributions and generates the required XML file in the exact format needed for the APS portal. This file can be uploaded directly; no extra processing or complicated conversions are required.

The benefits at a glance:

• No manual calculations: Celery applies the correct formulas, aligned with APS regulations.
• Saves time: No more spreadsheets or manual uploads – everything happens within one system.
• Fewer errors: Data is pulled directly from your payroll, reducing the risk of miscalculations or incorrect entries.
• Always up-to-date: If legislation or pension rules change, Celery adjusts the calculations accordingly.
