FAQs

What payroll services does iKeep offer for small businesses hiring their first employee?

iKeep provides comprehensive payroll services tailored for small businesses, including help with setting up payroll systems, ensuring legal compliance, and managing employee payments from day one.

How can iKeep’s payroll services help me stay compliant with Australian employment laws?

Our payroll services ensure you meet all Fair Work, ATO, and SuperStream obligations by automating your payroll processes, calculating accurate super, and lodging required reports on time.

Do I get my own dedicated payroll administrator?

Yes! Every client is assigned a dedicated Finance Officer, who’s available on a day-to-day basis and located onshore here in Australia. Your Finance Officer is supported by a team of offshore bookkeepers and accountants, ensuring you get premium support at a cost-effective price.

What is your standard payroll process?

Pay runs will occur at set intervals, so they should never be a surprise. 48 hours before the pay run, we’ll expect to receive your approved timesheets via email or through an approved scheduling software like Keypay or Deputy.

We’ll process the pay run and send it to you for approval. Once approved, we’ll generate the payroll reports, distribute pay advices and provide you with an .aba file for simple payment.

Do you manage Single Touch Payroll (STP)?

We are a registered BAS Agent: with your approval, we can register you as a client on our ATO portal. This allows us to lodge STP on your behalf every time we process a pay run.

Do you look after payroll tax?

Yes. Many of our clients have a national presence and are above the payroll tax threshold. Completing monthly payroll tax lodgements forms a standard part of our engagement.

What payroll software packages are you certified in?

The team at iKeep are certified in all major payroll platforms, including Xero Payroll, Keypay and Astute. Each of these software packages have different strengths: we’ll help you choose the right platform for your needs.

Does iKeep make the payment?

We’ll never ask you for your bank details… but it’s still an efficient process. We will provide you with a file that you can upload into your online banking to pay all your team members in one go. Whether you have one employee or 100, it takes less than two minutes to authorise the payment.

How do you keep track of leave?

Employees can view their leave history and balances at any time through their employee portal. Leave requests can also be submitted via the employee portal and employees are automatically notified as soon as leave is approved or declined.
