Payroll

Australian payroll, calmly done.

Run pay in five minutes. Submit to the ATO in one click. Pay super every pay run — the way the new rules require, the way myaccountant has always worked. Built for Australian small business owners who do not have a payroll person, and for accountants who want one platform for every client.

Start for free Free for one employee. $10 per business per month up to 50 employees. No payment details required. See the Payroll Overview →

One screen. One question: "What do I need to do?"

Most payroll software shows you data. The Payroll Overview tells you what to do with it.

When you log in, four stat cards tell you whether anything needs attention. A banner warns you if any employee is not set up for the new per-pay-run super rules. A pre-flight list shows exactly what would go wrong if you ran pay today. If everything is green, you close the tab. If it is not, you click the one thing that needs fixing, and the platform takes you straight there.

  • Compliance issues

    How many employees have missing or invalid setup that would block their next pay run. TFN, super fund, bank account, tax declaration — named by the exact field that needs attention.

  • Super due

    How much super is owed, and when the next deadline is. Red when overdue.

  • Payday Super readiness

    How many employees are ready for per-pay-run super, and how many still need fund details captured. Amber until the full team is ready, then green and quiet.

  • Leave liability

    The current dollar value of accrued annual leave across the team. The number that matters if anyone resigns this week.

Calm on the home screen. Loud on the thing that needs you.

Run pay in three steps.

Every pay run, every week, every business. Three steps. The maths happens in the background.

  1. Choose the period and the employees.

    Weekly, fortnightly, monthly. Everyone, or a subset. Timesheets from Deputy or Tanda flow in automatically, with the hours your team actually worked.

  2. Review the numbers.

    Gross pay, tax withheld, super, deductions, net pay — pre-calculated for every employee, every line. Overtime, allowances, salary sacrifice — applied from your reusable pay items library, the same way every time.

  3. Finalise.

    One click. Payslips go to employees, the pay event goes to the ATO in real time, the journal posts to your Xero or myaccountant books, and the matching super payment is staged for the network. Done.

What used to be a half-day in a spreadsheet is now the five minutes it takes to scan a screen.

Onboard a new hire without printing a single form.

Enter the new hire's name and email. Click Send Invite. They fill in their details — Personal, Tax, Super, Bank, Emergency Contact — in five short sections, each validated as they type so nothing bad reaches your payroll. TFN format, BSB, super fund (by name or identifier, including SMSFs), date of birth — all checked before submit. When the new hire is done, you review it once, and they are ready for their first pay run. No printed TFN declarations. No super choice form coming back three weeks late. No re-keying.

Payday Super, already done.

From July 2026, Australian employers must pay super every pay run — not quarterly. This is the biggest shift in super obligations in decades, and most payroll platforms will need rebuilds to handle it.

myaccountant has always worked this way. Every finalised pay run automatically generates the matching super payment, staged for the national super network. The Payroll Overview shows per-employee readiness — who is set up, who is missing a fund, who has an invalid identifier. When the rules switch on, your team will not notice, because your payroll already runs the way the rules will require.

For accountants managing client payroll.

If you run a practice and manage payroll across multiple clients, the Practice Plan is where the maths improves. For $40 per month your practice holds every client under one login, and every client subscription — Payroll included — bills to your practice at 25% off the standard prices. That is $7.50 per client per month for Payroll, for up to 50 employees per client. You bundle the cost into your engagement fee, absorb it, or pass it through. That is your call.

What happens quietly in the background.

Tax table updates at the start of the financial year. Super rate changes when they happen. STP schema version updates when the ATO ships them. Threshold changes, Payday Super rules. Every one of these is handled in the platform without you ever needing to think about it. The only time you notice is when the number on the payslip ticks up because a rate did, and you get a one-line note explaining why.
