Customising your BrightPay Cloud Account


Bureaus
 

For accountants, bookkeepers and payroll bureaus who are using BrightPay Cloud as a multi-company platform, BrightPay Cloud can be customised with your bureau settings. 

1) Within your BrightPay Cloud account, click 'Settings' on your home screen. 

2) Enter your 'Bureau Name' -  this name will then appear going forward within the employer dashboard of your clients when they log in. It will also appear in email notifications sent to your clients. 

3) Enter your 'Email Signature' -  this will be used in automated emails (e.g. when you invite a new user) as well as in email notifications sent to your clients.

4) Click 'Save'  on completion.

 

 

Employers


For employers, BrightPay Cloud can be customised as follows:

 

1) Within your BrightPay Cloud Account, click into your Employer Portal and select 'Settings' followed by 'Notifications'.

Please note: document availability is set according to the rules you have set up in Employee Self Service Options on BrightPay on your PC or Mac.
