What having no shareholders means for your people

We are a not-for-profit organisation, so there are no dividends to pay and no outside investors to satisfy. Every pound we make beyond the cost of running the business goes back into the scheme: lower charges, better technology, clearer communications, and a savings reward that shares our profits directly with members. Last year that came to more than Β£30m returned to the people who save with us.

For an employer, that changes the calculation. The pension you choose today is built to keep getting better for your workforce rather than to extract value from it. Your staff get a provider that explains things in plain English, answers the phone, and is judged on retirement outcomes instead of quarterly returns. It is a simple idea, and it has guided us for eighty years.

How quickly can we set up a scheme?

Most employers are up and running within a few working days. You complete a short online set-up, tell us about your pay cycles and staging position, and we produce the letters your people need to receive. There is no paperwork to post and no charge for setting up.

Will it work with our payroll software?

Almost certainly. We integrate directly with the major UK payroll providers and accept straightforward file uploads from everyone else, so contributions flow through with each pay run. Our onboarding team walks through your first submission with you and checks it before anything goes live.

What does it cost our business?

There is no employer charge for using The People's Pension. Members pay a simple annual management charge, and because we have no shareholders we hand part of it back through our management charge rebate. No hidden fees, no exit penalties, and no surprises at renewal.
