When checking out from a Saasu checkout screen we store your credit card details securely so we can bill you automatically each subscription period. Turn this option off if you would instead prefer to manually process a credit card payment each subscription period.
How does Saasu store your credit card details?
Saasu doesn’t store your card details, we simply encrypt them and pass them into a PCI complaint Payment Gateway who securely manages them. In Saasu’s case we use Mastercard as our Payment Gateway for all card types (Visa, Mastercard and American Express).

If you let your file expire and come back you will be charged the catchup period.
I don’t have time to export my data. What should I do?
Keep paying for your accounting file until you have time to export your data and until you have completed your year end including your Single Touch Payroll finalisations if you have employees.

Online accounting transactions include a Sale, Purchase, Bank Transfer, Pay or Journal entry. Things like Accounts, Employees, Contacts, Timesheets, Activities, Opening Balances or Attachments are not counted towards your transaction limit.
How does the transaction limit work?
The yearly transaction limit is based on the total number of transactions dated in the last 365 days. This allows for seasonality in business and allows customers moving to us to enter historical data.

We don’t charge for each user or computer that accesses your files.
Payment is in advance monthly, quarterly or yearly.

What if my accountant isn’t keen to use Saasu?
Accountants often recommend software they are familiar with and that supports their practise efficiency. This may not be the best one for you though. Saasu works with Accountants that understand this and tend to recommend the right product for the right business. We give them free support, training and certification to help them help you.

Why don’t you offer a charity discount?
We work hard to make Saasu as affordable as possible to all our customers, so we aren’t able to offer further discounting.
Why does Saasu charge for Test files?
Test files consume the same infrastructure and services as live files. Occasional testers should just pay for a file for a month and delete it when complete. If there is more complexity, update frequency and testing to be done because you are in a more sophisticated business model then we recommend paying for a permanent test file in your subscription.
Aren’t you required to hold our data for 5 or 7 years?
No because we are a software company. Our understanding is that Corporations and Tax Law place the responsibility of maintaining financial records on the business owners, directors and public officers. If that changes to be software companies in the future then Saasu will charge for storing that data for the period of time required by law.
Why don’t you offer a discount for one year anymore?
Saasu is moving to a monthly payments pricing method in the future. We will cease offering quarterly and annual plans in the future. Saasu is moving to a monthly payments pricing method in the future. We will cease offering quarterly and annual plans in the future.
