We get it

The challenges we hear every week

Wages creeping up

Penalty rates and overtime can push wage costs past 35% before you notice.

Food cost blowouts

Supplier price rises eat into margins one invoice at a time.

Daily takings reconciliation

Cash, card, delivery apps and tips all land differently in the bank.

High staff turnover

Constant onboarding of casuals means more payroll admin and more room for error.

FAQs

Hospitality bookkeeping questions

What wage cost percentage should I aim for?

Many cafés and restaurants target wages of around 30–35% of revenue, depending on the venue type. We report it weekly so you can adjust rosters before it becomes a problem.

Can you work with Deputy or Tanda?

Yes. We import approved timesheets straight into payroll, which saves time and reduces errors.
