Before embedded payments: Manual processes and wasted time
Before adopting Modulr, Gooding Accounts relied on a payroll manager system that lacked integration capabilities. Each month, they manually input payroll data and journal entries—a time-consuming and error-prone process.
“Previously, we had to manually process every payroll. One client, who employs an average of 150 self-employed workers each month, was spending hours just managing payments. It was exhausting and unsustainable."
For another client, a company with over 200 people on its payroll, the lack of automation created similar challenges, eating into valuable time that could have been spent on other priorities.
Why they chose Modulr
Recognising the inefficiencies, Gooding Accounts began searching for a solution to streamline payroll and reduce manual intervention. Sherelyn recalls, “We needed something that could handle the volume of payments quickly and securely. When we discovered Modulr’s integration with BrightPay, we knew it was the perfect fit.”
Gooding Accounts decided to pilot Modulr with clients facing the most significant payroll challenges. The goal was clear: eliminate inefficiencies, save time, and create a seamless payroll experience.
Having explored various payroll solutions, Gooding Accounts found that other software lacked the comprehensive features and ease of use that Modulr offered.
“So many systems are clunky or don’t integrate properly. With Modulr, it’s different. The BrightPay integration allows us to automate payroll in just a few clicks. It’s cheaper to use Modulr than to spend time manually processing payments—it was a no-brainer.”
Security was another key factor. “The two-factor authentication gives us peace of mind. We know our clients’ data is safe, and they can trust us to handle their finances securely.”
The transformation: Automation saves the day
Implementing Modulr transformed how Gooding Accounts managed payroll. “One of our clients said, ‘Can you help us with this?’ and we set them up on Modulr right away,” Sherelyn shares. The result was immediate:
- 3–4 hours saved per month for Gooding Accounts’ team.
- A seamless process requiring just three steps: Log in, approve, and send.
- Enhanced efficiency, allowing clients to focus on their business instead of payroll admin.
For Gooding Accounts, the transition wasn’t without its learning curve, but the payoff was worth it. “It’s all about finding solutions that make life easier,” says Sherelyn. “Our clients now spend less time worrying about payroll and more time doing what they love.”
The after: Time savings and client success
The results speak for themselves. One client, overwhelmed with payroll demands, was able to focus on growth after adopting Modulr. “With 200 people on their payroll, Modulr saved them hours every month. It’s been a fantastic solution.”
For Gooding Accounts, Modulr’s automation hasn’t just saved time—it’s elevated the level of service they offer. “We can now run payroll, pay staff, and manage suppliers effortlessly. It’s freed up time for us to give back to the community and focus on what really matters.”
As Sherelyn puts it: “People with a busy lifestyle don’t have time to do payrolls manually. Modulr makes it easier, faster, and more efficient. It’s a win-win for us and our clients.”
