This tool was created by a South African who saw the need for a simple way to handle financial calculations. With SARS 's progressive tax brackets and a constant 15% VAT rate, figuring out net pay or invoice totals can be a hassle. This calculator helps everyday people workers checking take-home pay, freelancers managing clients, or shoppers decoding receipts. Its updated for 2025, factoring in medical aid credits (R364 for you, R246 per extra dependent), and designed to be quick and free. No tech skills needed just numbers in, answers out. Got questions?
