How long does it take to get set up?
Timelines vary depending on your setup, but most standard implementations take 6 to 10 weeks from payment. That covers a full implementation, including discovery to understand how your business runs and tailoring your file to match your exact pay conditions.
If you're eligible for a microimplementation, you could be up and running in around 3 weeks. These skip the discovery and testing stages because they're closer to a ready-to-go setup, so they suit providers with simpler, more standard requirements. Need to move faster than that? Chat with our sales team about your timeline and they'll let you know what's possible.
Is Pay Cat only for NDIS and SCHADS providers?
SCHADS is where we specialise, but Pay Cat also supports businesses across construction, hospitality, retail, hair and beauty, and other modern award industries.
What does support actually look like?
Real people, not ticket queues. Pick up the phone (yes, an actual phone) and talk to someone who actually understands your award, not just the software. Email and tickets are there too, but you're never stuck explaining the details to someone reading from a script.
