The setup process was super easy - I just had to input all my basic information and I was ready to go.

Allocations, expenses, uploading of receipts. It’s good that Hnry can bring it all together as one. Rather having this software for this and that software for that. It’s all just magical to me!

I can send an invoice, then the payment goes straight into my Hnry Account. Hnry allocates money to my taxes, KiwiSaver, ACC and student loan, as well as GST. Within a couple of hours, I then get the rest of the money into my own personal bank account.

I can see ALL of my self-employed financial admin in the Hnry app. This is where I invoice, this is where my expenses go, it shows my income and all my payslips are there - it’s everything in one spot!
