Small businesses’ confidence helps drive another quarter  
of growth for PaySauce  

 

Lower Hutt, New Zealand - 13 January 2020  

 

Online employment solutions provider PaySauce (NZX:PYS) finished the third  

quarter of FY21 with continued revenue and customer growth.  

 

Total recurring revenue grew 44% to $569K, compared to the third quarter of F20.   

 

The number of New Zealand employees paid through PaySauce software  

increased by 34% to 17,944 people, while the total number of businesses  

processing through PaySauce increased proportionately to 3,274. PaySauce  

welcomed more than 300 new clients this quarter, leading to a 6% increase in the  

total business customers since the last quarter.   

 

CEO and co-founder, Asantha Wijeyeratne, said the platform’s continued growth  

reflects the recovery of the small business economy in the wake of COVID-19.  

 

“Over the last quarter we saw both new and established businesses coming on  

board,” said Mr Wijeyeratne.   

 

“It’s been particularly uplifting to see our nation’s entrepreneurs regaining their  

balance and confidence over the last quarter”.   

 

“We’ve seen a significant number of customers resume payroll processing after a  

break, as they’re once again in a position to employ staff. Our customers are a  

tenacious and resilient bunch, and it’s our pleasure to support them and see  

them bouncing back after a diabolically challenging year.”
