ACCURATE PAYROLL FOR YOUR TRADESPEOPLE
Pay subcontractors & tradespeople on time
Paying tradespeople is typically covered by the Fair Work Act 2009, which sets out Australia’s minimum standards for pay and working conditions.
The pay rates for subbies and tradies vary depending on a number of factors, including experience, qualifications, and sub-industry whether it be plumbing or HVAC work.
Automate calculations of net salaries including superannuation, deductions and entitlements for individual employees using Payroller software.

Really simple to use for a small business such as mine and with just enough features on the plan I have for my needs. Been on it since STP took off a couple of years ago and highly recommend it.

FAQs
How does Payroller work?
Payroller is an STP-enabled software that automatically submits payroll information to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) – through a secure cloud network – whenever you perform a payrun. Payroller helps you to track, manage and record your payroll while safely sharing that information (and staying compliant) with the ATO.
As a truly one-stop payroll solution, you can manage staff roster, invite your accountant, bookkeeper or BAS agent and even make Super contribution (Beam) on Payroller.
Can I share my Payroller account?
Absolutely, you may share your account and even set different access permissions.
How long does it take to get set up with Payroller?
Only a few minutes. The majority of our customers get up and running within 15 minutes. If you do need more help in getting set up, simply reach out to our capable live agents and they will have you using Payroller like a seasoned user in no time. Check out our handy user guides.
What is Single Touch Payroll (STP)?
Single Touch Payroll (STP) is a mandatory Australian Taxation Office (ATO) initiative to reduce employers’ reporting obligations to government agencies. By using Payroller, it eliminates the need for manual reporting to the relevant government agencies, keeps your business compliant and streamlines all your payroll processes – error-free.
Find out more with our guide to Single Touch Payroll.
What is Single Touch Payroll (STP) Phase 2?
STP Phase 2 is the expansion of the ATO’s Single Touch Payroll reporting. Under these changes, you will no longer need to manually report information about your employees to multiple government agencies. If you are an existing Payroller user, you would have received instructions on how to transfer over to STP Phase 2. (If you did not, please contact our live agents to assist you.)
If you are a new user, your Payroller account will automatically be set on STP Phase 2 and all payruns will already be converted to the new reporting format.
Find out more with our guide to Single Touch Payroll (STP) Phase 2.
What if there are new phases to STP?
As the ATO continuously refines how STP will adapt to employers’ needs – you can rest assured that Payroller will remain STP-compliant with current and new requirements by the ATO.

Absolutely, use Payroller freely between devices as it syncs across desktop (Windows, MacOS) and mobile (iOS, Android) to ensure that all your data is consistent.
Is Payroller a cloud payroll service? What is cloud payroll?
Yes we are. A cloud payroll software allows you to manage all the elements of payroll online – on mobile and desktop. That means you’ll be able to operate payroll processes, onboard new employees and manage staff rosters remotely as long as you have an internet connection.
What are the benefits of payroll software?
STP-enabled Payroller automatically sends your employees’ tax and superannuation information to the ATO. You will not need to manually complete payment summaries and group certificates at the end of the financial year. Less paperwork, more time saved.
Does Payroller integrate with other platforms?
Yes, Payroller is integrated with Xero. By connecting your Xero account to Payroller, you can easily export and share payroll information cross-platforms.
How is Payroller easier to use than other cloud payroll or STP-enabled softwares?
Speaking to the community, we understand what agents and employers need from a cloud payroll solution. Payroller streamlines and uncomplicates your payroll processes. Our user-friendly software is why we’re rated exceptionally across devices and operating systems.
