If you're unhappy with Payroller and looking for a better alternative, consider trying e-PayDay FREEPAY®, which is fully supported in Australia.

Updated: Sep 4

e-PayDay FREEPAY has thousands of users and is the best alternative to Payroller.

Every product has its advantages and disadvantages. When searching for payroll software that complies with the Australian Taxation Office and Fair Work requirements, choosing a product with the necessary features and functionality is essential. You also need to ensure that dependable and accessible support is available, so you can promptly address any questions or issues that may arise.


e-PayDay FREEPAY® is engineered for unmatched power and effortless usability. Our payroll solution empowers you to manage your payroll anytime, anywhere. Experience the freedom and efficiency that comes with seamless payroll processing.


We are committed to delivering outstanding payroll support for you in Australia.


Our payroll support team members share the same passion for payroll as the developers of e-PayDay FREEPAY®. They are based in Australia and do not follow a scripted response when answering your questions. Their primary goal is to provide the answers you need while minimising stress. They are also skilled in guiding you to information provided by the many regulators that impact payroll in Australia.


When the payroll support team frequently insists that a "workaround" is necessary to meet the requirements, it's time to look for a different payroll solution.

Our team has a vested interest in ensuring that you obtain the answers needed, as they are genuine and do not want you to face the potential consequences of penalties from regulators. They frequently deal with distressed employers who have used products previously, providing outcomes that have been less than satisfactory, and have been on a merry-go-round trying to obtain answers from people in offshore call centres who have no understanding of Australian payroll needs.


Payroll is complicated, no matter how the marketing team spin the story.


When Single Touch Payroll (STP) was introduced in 2018, we knew that offering a free payroll product for unlimited employees was not achievable because we understood the costs involved in developing payroll software and providing the necessary support. Since 1987, we have been dedicated to supporting small businesses and are familiar with their challenges. We provide free payroll software for organisations with fewer than four employees. Our paid plans start from a low $99 per year ($8.25 per month) if you have more.


Promotional materials frequently emphasise features, but what truly matters is their effectiveness in real-world situations. We recognise that the advertised features must align with your needs, so we are dedicated to carefully assessing their practical application. Our team is committed to investing time and effort into developing new functionalities that genuinely benefit you, ensuring that these enhancements are valuable additions rather than fleeting trends or mere duplicates of existing technologies that others offer.


The payroll product claims to have thousands of reviews.


Certain vendors often present a cumulative count of reviews for their entire product range rather than isolating the feedback specifically for their Payroll solutions. This approach can sometimes give a misleading impression of the product's popularity and user satisfaction. Often, reviews are several years old and do not reflect the products' current offerings or the level of support provided.


Prioritise reading the reviews—doing so will empower you to make a well-informed and confident decision.


If you want a free Pay Slip template, try our free pay slip generator.


Did you know that the Fair Work Ombudsman offers a free pay slip template? However, a pay slip template alone is insufficient to meet your obligations with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) and the Fair Work Commission. To comply, you must produce your pay slips and submit your Single Touch Payroll reports using a registered Single Touch Payroll product whitelisted by the ATO.


We don't offer marketing gimmicks; we simply offer the first three employees 100% free and include thirty days of unlimited support and setup assistance.


Don't waste time with the 90% off or .99 cents per employee incentives, as when the offer expires, you will pay a premium for your subscription. Our e-PayDay FREEPAY® plan includes the same features and functionality as the paid subscription plans. You can use the free product to process your employees' pay runs or evaluate whether it suits your needs. You can sign up and use the product for as long as needed, and the thirty-day included support only starts when you submit your first request.


Numerous Accountants and Bookkeepers trust and recommend our services, and we pride ourselves on maintaining integrity by not offering any "kickbacks".


It is easy to provide access for your Accountant or Bookkeeper as we offer centralised payroll management to all of their clients. Changing your plans is straightforward as your business evolves and your needs shift. Our intuitive system, built on a unified codebase, allows seamless transitions between plans and features. This flexibility ensures that you can easily scale your business without the hassle of complicated migrations or disruptions. There is no need to reenter any of your existing payroll data when you add more employees and need to change subscription plans.


Just because we provide free payroll software doesn't mean we compromise on delivering a comprehensive and effective payroll solution.


Since 1986, we have dedicated ourselves to the exclusive development of payroll software, navigating the industry's ever-evolving requirements with expertise and innovation. Our long-standing commitment has positioned us as leaders in payroll technology, allowing us to stay ahead of significant advancements. We have successfully integrated pivotal changes such as Single Touch Payroll Phases 1 and 2, and the proposed introduction of Payday Super. Our continuous efforts focus on enhancing our products, ensuring they meet and exceed our customers' expectations in this dynamic environment.
