Questions

Things we get asked.

Short answers below. For anything deeper, a founding-team member will walk you through it.

Software platforms and companies that want to offer payroll to their Australian customers without building the payroll engine, integrations, and compliance requirements themselves: HR suites, accounting software, rostering and workforce tools.
Yes. Paysense is a registered STP gateway. Your platform files through us, and we handle ATO authentication, retries, and receipts. Pay run outputs are automatically generated and submitted with the ATO upon approval.
Yes. Your platform owns the UI. We also offer embeddable components for teams that want a faster path to launch.
Yes. The API includes MCP (Model Context Protocol) extensions with AI-compatible metadata that lets your platform's LLM layer query payroll context directly, without custom middleware. If you're building AI-native workflows on top of payroll data, MCP support is included.
Being founder-led is a feature, not a limitation. You engage directly with the people who built the product and make decisions. No account manager chain, no support queue. Our infrastructure is built to scale with your growth. We're focused entirely on embedded payroll for Australian platforms, which means your priorities are our priorities.
