Payroller is built for one job. We are built for what comes next.
Payroller is strong when payroll means submit STP at low cost. myaccountant is for the next stage: super reconciliation, Payday Super readiness, leave liability, and payroll connected to the books.
Where Payroller is genuinely strong.
Payroller has done a real service for Australian small business. For sole traders, micro-businesses, and single-director companies that need to submit STP and nothing more, Payroller's price, starting around a few dollars per employee per month, free for one employee on mobile, is genuinely the right answer. The mobile app is strong, the onboarding is fast, and tens of thousands of Australian businesses run uncomplicated payroll on it every week without issue. We mean this: for the right business, Payroller is the right tool.
Who Payroller is for. Where the limits start showing.
Payroller is at its best when payroll is a small, predictable, low-volume task. A single employee. A handful of hours. A weekly or monthly STP submission. The product is optimised for exactly that, and most of its users are exactly that shape of business.
The limits appear around the work outside STP: super reconciliation, leave liability, Payday Super readiness, and the connection between payroll, books and BAS.
What myaccountant is shaped around.
myaccountant treats payroll as part of the financial record. The Payroll Overview shows what needs fixing. The Super Overview reconciles reported and paid super. Payday Super readiness is visible per employee. The payroll journal posts to the books.
Three specific things, if you want the detail.
-
Scope: submit STP, vs. run payroll.
Payroller's core promise is reliable STP submission at low cost. myaccountant covers the wider payroll job: calculation, submission, super reconciliation, leave tracking, EOFY, book integration and Payday Super readiness.
-
Pricing: per employee, vs. per business.
Payroller charges per employee per month, with a minimum monthly spend. myaccountant's Payroll module is $10 per business per month for up to 50 employees, one flat price, regardless of headcount. For a business with five or more employees, the maths starts to favour the flat rate.
-
Payday Super: being added, vs. already how it works.
Payroller is working on Payday Super readiness, like most payroll platforms transitioning to the new rules. myaccountant has always worked this way, every finalised pay run generates the matching super payment automatically, and the readiness dashboard shows per-employee status. If you are planning ahead of 1 July 2026, a platform where the new rules are already the existing rules is a different starting point.
Closing
If payroll is mainly STP submission, Payroller is a good answer. If payroll now needs super reconciled, leave tracked, books updated and Payday Super handled, come and see ours.
