Payroller provides a large number of features for free, including the Payroller Mobile App.

You will still have access to your Payroller account on the web app to view existing pay runs, generate reports, and use timesheets and rostering.

If you want to pay annually, you can include as many employees in a pay run as you have paid for in your subscription. For example, you might have 10 employees but only 5 of them work in a month. In this case, you can pay for 5 employees and mark the ones that aren’t being paid as Inactive. By rotating who is active and inactive you can save yourself on your subscription fees.

Rosters and timesheets are available under the free plan on the Payroller web app.

It’s up to you how you want to handle it and you should compare the plans to understand which subscription best suits your situation. With an Annual Plan, you get a strong discount and you don’t have to worry about managing your account by turning it on and off. Under a Monthly Plan, you pay just for the month you submit your pay run, but you are priced at a higher rate and you need to closely manage how many employees are active and adjust it each month.

Subscriptions are still applicable for those that have a WPN. STP reporting for WPNs will be made available with the transition to STP Phase 2 in January 2022.

We’ve been made aware that some of you haven’t had a response yet. Please be patient as we currently have a very high volume of inbound messages that we are responding to. The current version of our customer support platform is good but because it is a live chat sometimes the responses can take longer than you want and it reverts to an email if you, as a user, leave the window. This requires your email address to be correctly entered. Sometimes there are typos in the email address and sometimes an email isn’t entered which drops the conversation and we are unable to respond

As a result of introducing subscriptions, we will be upgrading our support platform with additional features to handle conversations and enquiries in a way that the conversations will be better supported.

When you pay for Payroller the checkout accepts debit credit cards, like Debit-Visa or Debit-Mastercard. The bank that holds the bank account for your NFP should have issued you an access card that is a debit-credit card for situations like this. You can use this debit-credit card for your PayRoller subscription.

You can cancel your plan at any time. When you do, your current plan will last until the end of your current Billing Schedule that you selected when choosing your plan.
