If you're running HR for a 40-person startup split across Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, three pricing pages just moved under you this week. Swingvy corrected a grant-rate error on its own PSG page. PayrollPanda made its per-employee tiers easier to read, and Halosis in Jakarta finally published a full price list instead of making you book a sales call. None of this is headline news. It's the kind of detail that only matters the week you're renewing a contract or applying for a grant. Or the week you have to explain a line-item jump to a finance lead who doesn't touch these tools day to day.
Swingvy (Singapore / Malaysia / Taiwan)
Swingvy's SG "Premium" plan bundles HR Hub, Claims, and Leave, and it lists at S$5.00 per user per month billed monthly, or S$4.25 per user per month if you pay annually. That's a 15% discount worth taking if you're not planning to switch HR tools within the year. The number is confirmed straight from swingvy.com/sg/pricing, verified July 10.
The more useful fix is on the PSG Grant page. Swingvy's own site and current third-party Productivity Solutions Grant guides now agree the grant covers up to 50% of qualifying costs, capped at S$30,000 a year per company. That's not the "up to 70%" figure some directories still list, so redo your budget math before you apply.
There's also a standalone "Time" module for time and attendance sitting on the pricing page marked "coming soon" as of July 10, priced at S$2.55 per user per month annually or S$3.00 monthly. It's a small addition, but worth watching if you're already paying for a separate attendance tool once this ships. One thing finance teams should flag: custom pricing now kicks in above 50 employees, a lower threshold than before. That's a modest change on paper, but it means a lot of 60- and 70-person companies in the region are going to get a sales call instead of a self-serve invoice at their next renewal. Worth asking Swingvy directly rather than assuming last year's quote still applies.
PayrollPanda (Malaysia)
PayrollPanda cleaned up how it explains its own pricing, which honestly should have been clear from day one. Malaysian SMEs comparing payroll tools shouldn't need a spreadsheet just to figure out per-head cost, and now they don't. The Standard plan is RM 35 a month as a company fee, plus RM 5.60 per employee per month for your first 50 staff, dropping to RM 4 per employee after that. Premium keeps the same RM 35 company fee but charges RM 7 per employee for the first 50, falling to RM 5 per employee after 50.
There's no permanent free plan here, despite what some comparison sites imply. Only your first payroll run is free, and standard billing starts from run two. That detail trips up a lot of first-time buyers who read "free" on a landing page and assume it's ongoing. Once headcount passes 100, you're off the published tiers entirely and into custom enterprise pricing, which means a call with sales rather than a self-serve checkout.
Halosis (Indonesia)
Halosis finally put its full pricing table on the website instead of gating it behind a sales call, and it's worth bookmarking if you're comparing Indonesian CRM options. Standard tier is IDR 850,000 a month for 3 users, 2,500 contacts, 250 products, and 1 location, with an 11% VAT on top and a minimum six-month commitment. That lock-in period is longer than most SEA SaaS tools ask for, so factor it into your decision before you commit. The 11% VAT sitting outside the sticker price is also easy to forget when you're comparing quotes across vendors. It's the kind of gap that turns a budgeted IDR 850,000 into a real bill closer to IDR 943,500. Source: halosis.co.id/en/harga, verified July 10.
Premium moves to IDR 1,500,000 a month for 5 users, 5,000 contacts, and 500 products across 3 locations, and adds an omnichannel inbox covering Instagram, Facebook Messenger, and email. Lead Gen sits lower at IDR 1,000,000 a month for 3 users, 3,000 contacts, and a single lead-generation chatbot template -- a decent entry point if you just need to catch inbound leads. Deluxe runs IDR 3,000,000 a month for 10 users, 10,000 contacts, 1,000 products, and 5 locations, while Pro scales to IDR 5,000,000 a month for 20 users, 20,000 contacts, 1,500 products, and 10 locations. Past that, Enterprise is a custom quote for teams with 20-plus users, 20,000-plus contacts, 1,500-plus products, and 10-plus locations.
WhatsApp API messages cost Rp 30 each on Premium, Deluxe, Pro, and Enterprise -- worth adding to your monthly estimate if support runs through WhatsApp. One gap still stands out: there's no confirmed Shopee or TikTok Shop connector. Commerce integrations remain Shopify, WooCommerce, and Tokopedia, with Midtrans and Xendit handling payments, and there's no public evidence of a Shopee or TikTok Shop connector as of July 10. If your store lives on Shopee, Halosis isn't built for you yet, and that's a real limitation given how much retail volume in Indonesia still runs through Shopee rather than Shopify or Tokopedia.
If you only have time to check one of these today, make it Halosis. A six-month lock-in is the kind of detail that's easy to miss until you're three months into a contract you can't leave. Swingvy's grant correction matters if you've applied for PSG funding, and PayrollPanda's tiers are worth a quick sanity check the next time your headcount crosses 50.
