Key things to note
Employment Hero's payment options
| Region | Direct Debit (Bank Account) | Credit Card |
| Australia | ✔ | ✔ |
| New Zealand | ✔ | ✔ |
| United Kingdom | ✔ | ✔ |
| Singapore | ✔ | |
| Malaysia | ✔ |
To align with our terms and conditions, payments are processed via credit card or direct debit only. This streamlined method helps ensure timely transactions. We do not accept direct deposit (EFT).
Frequency of billing
Our billing operates on a monthly, in arrears basis.
This means at the start of each month, you'll receive an invoice for services used during the previous month. Payments are then completed on the invoice's due date via the payment details you have on file.
If you're off-boarding, ensure this process is completed before the last day of the month to prevent charges for the upcoming billing cycle, as we do not offer pro-rata billing.
Billing calculations explained
For HR, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), Learning Management System (LMS) and HR Advisory, your monthly billing is based on either your contracted minimum monthly amount or the actual number of active or pending users on the platform on the last day of the month, whichever is greater.
Actual users include all active and pending employees and contractors in your Employment Hero system at the end of the billing period. Offboarded employees will not count toward billing. To avoid any potential mischarges, the employees must be offboarded prior to the billing snapshot; any changes made after this date will be reflected in the next month's billing.
For payroll, your monthly billing is calculated a little differently. It is based on your contracted minimum monthly amount, or actual headcount, whichever is greater. Billing is triggered for an employee, when an employee has at least one 'pay event' within that month. A 'pay event' covers a variety of activities such as a pay run, an approved timesheet, an approved leave request, a rostered shift, or an expense claim. Regardless of how many of these events an employee has in each month, they're only counted as a single billable event.
For clients outside of the initial 12-month contract, there's an option to review and potentially adjust your contracted minimums closer to your current active user/employee count. Please be aware that certain minimum requirements will still apply. To explore this, contact us at accounts@employmenthero.com.
