HR+ helps you deliver a higher-value payroll service

HR+ gives agent teams one practical workspace for people operations across client portfolios. Lift compliance confidence, standardise workflows, and reduce manual follow-up without adding another disconnected tool.

Compliance visibility and document control

Give every client cleaner oversight with an HR dashboard, central employee files, and auditable records for contracts, IDs, certifications, and policy acknowledgements.

Consistent workflows across every client

Use onboarding/offboarding checklists, training and education tracking, reminder settings, and template libraries so delivery stays consistent as your client list grows.

Less rework, faster payroll-adjacent admin

Handle reimbursements and expense claims with clearer review and approvals, reducing back-and-forth while improving turnaround and service quality.

HR+ add-on values shown on this page are in AUD, including GST (10%), and each plan shows its own exact HR+ add-on amount under the price.

Why agents choose Lightning Payroll

More than higher company limits

Agent subscriptions are built around the needs of firms that run payroll repeatedly, across many clients, with real support pressure and real workflow complexity.

Multi-company workflow

Stay oriented across a larger client base and move between payroll companies with less context switching.

Included accounting integration

Connect Lightning Payroll to Xero and MYOB APIs without paying separately for the accounting integration add-on.

Priority support and product input

Support questions, suggestions, and practical development requests from agent customers are prioritised.

Built for repeat payroll work

When your day involves moving from one client file to the next, small workflow wins compound quickly.

Closer access to our team

Agent customers sit closer to support and product conversations, which helps resolve edge-case payroll issues faster.

A better fit for portfolio clients

If standard limits are holding your practice back, agent plans give you a cleaner path to scale inside one payroll platform.
