Terms of Use

Last updated: 2 October 2026

By using SalaryScope you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Estimates, not advice

Salary, take-home pay and tax figures are estimates based on public data and our own calculations. Real pay depends on the employer, your skills, sector and other factors. Tax figures are a guide only and are not tax, financial or legal advice. For decisions that matter, check with SARS, your employer or a qualified adviser.

  • You may use and share our figures for personal use, such as preparing for an interview or pay review.
  • Please link back to SalaryScope when you quote our figures publicly.
  • Do not copy the site in bulk, scrape it automatically, or try to disrupt it.
  • Feedback you submit must be honest. We may remove votes that look automated or abusive.
