EBP Paie
Payroll software or outsourced payroll from EBP, part of the Cegid group
Market position
EBP Paie is the payroll offer of EBP, a French management-software publisher based in Gazeran (Yvelines) that joined the Cegid group in July 2024. It comes as self-managed software (payslips, DSN filing, collective-agreement updates) or as an outsourced service with a dedicated payroll manager. EBP also sells EBP Devis Facture Bâtiment for building firms and EBP Comptabilité for accounting.
France-specific note
Worth a look if you already use EBP Devis Facture Bâtiment or EBP Comptabilité and want one publisher. EBP's payroll page does not describe BTP-specific handling such as CIBTP leave funds or intempéries, so ask for it in writing with the quote.

Why this matters for France trades
Since 1 September 2026 every French business must be able to receive B2B e-invoices through a plateforme agréée registered by the State (CGI art. 289 bis), and PME, TPE and micro-entreprises must issue them by 1 September 2027; DGFiP says no sanctions apply in 2026 while businesses adapt. Assurance décennale (Loi Spinetta) must be in place before work starts, and building without it is punishable by 6 months’ imprisonment and/or a 75,000 euro fine, per service-public.fr. TVA on building work on homes is 20% standard, 10% for improvement, transformation, fitting-out and maintenance, and 5.5% for energy renovation, with the reduced rates only for dwellings completed more than two years ago. Clients can only claim MaPrimeRénov’, the éco-PTZ or CEE bonuses if the work is done by an RGE professional. Businesses register through the Guichet des formalités des entreprises, with the CMA advising artisans, and regulated building trades must be carried out or controlled by a qualified person (CAP, BEP or BP, an equivalent RNCP title, or three years’ experience).
French artisan (bâtiment) vendor selection is shaped by facturation électronique (every business must be able to receive e-invoices through a plateforme agréée since 1 September 2026, and PME, TPE and micro-entreprises must issue them by 1 September 2027), compulsory assurance décennale taken out before work starts, multi-rate TVA (20%, 10% and 5.5%), the RGE label that homeowner clients need to claim energy-renovation aid, and the micro-entrepreneur regime with its turnover ceilings and VAT franchise.
