Payday Super is changing on 1 July. Is your business ready? Don't get caught out. Read our guide.

FOR FRANCHISE NETWORKS IN AUSTRALIA

Your stores are one pay run away from a compliance problem.

From 1 July 2026, super is paid every single payday. Not quarterly. If your network isn't running on an award-aware payroll platform before then, head office carries the risk. PaySauce is built for exactly this.

Payday Super ready from day one.

This isn't a software problem. It's a compliance gap.

Your stores are probably using payroll software. That's not the issue.

The issue is what happens before the pay run. Award interpretation, penalty rates, casual classifications, junior rate changes on birthdays. Most store managers are doing this from memory, a spreadsheet, or not at all.

Under the Bakers Delight ruling (Full Federal Court, October 2025), head office must now prove compliance. The FWO no longer has to prove non-compliance. That gap between the timesheet and the pay run is now your liability.

  • Consistent award interpretation across every store.

  • An auditable payroll trail from day one.

  • The strongest legal defence under s558B.

  • Payday Super handled automatically, every pay run.

Three steps. Network sorted.

Getting your stores onto PaySauce is straightforward. You make one introduction. We handle everything else.

  1. You introduce us to a shortlist of stores. That's all we need from you.
  2. We onboard and run parallel pay cycles. Every discrepancy documented.
  3. By day 60, you have your own compliance audit. Built on your stores, your data.

Managing store payroll the old way vs the PaySauce way.

The Old Way
  • Store managers interpreting awards from memory
  • Junior rate changes missed when employees have birthdays
  • Super paid quarterly, manually, easy to miss
  • No auditable trail if the FWO comes knocking
  • Head office with no visibility across the network
The PaySauce Way
  • Award rates interpreted automatically, every pay run
  • Rate changes applied on the day, no one has to remember
  • Payday Super handled simultaneously with every wage run
  • Full compliance trail created automatically
  • Head office visibility across every store

Built for your network. Priced for it too.

Under the Bakers Delight ruling, franchisors are now directly responsible for franchisee underpayments if they knew, or should have known, about the breach. The FWO no longer needs to prove non-compliance — you need to prove compliance. PaySauce gives you the documentation to do that.
