Your employer pays dollars.
You receive bitcoin.

Bits integrates directly with Xero Payroll to put bitcoin on every Australian payslip — with zero complexity for employers.

Onboarding our first cohort of businesses now · Proposed for the Xero App Store

Built for Xero — App Store listing proposed
Connects directly to your Xero Payroll organisation today
Bits is built to work inside Xero — no separate systems, no manual steps.

Bitcoin wages have always been too hard.
Until now.

Employees have had to manually buy bitcoin from an exchange every pay cycle. Employers have faced exchange rate risk, accounting complexity, and unfamiliar technology.

Bits removes both barriers entirely.

✓Employer pays Australian dollars. Nothing changes.
✓No exchange accounts. No rate risk. No new systems.
✓Staff opt in themselves — zero manual data entry, their details flow into payroll automatically.
✓Bitcoin delivered to each employee's wallet every pay cycle.

How Bits works

Three steps for employers. Zero steps after that.

1
Connect Bits to your Xero payroll
●Sign up with your Xero login — no forms to fill in.
●Takes 2 minutes.
●You don't need to buy, hold, or understand bitcoin.
2
Enable employee access
●Toggle on employee opt-in.
●Your team connect their own GPIB accounts and choose their dollar amount.
●No payroll admin work, no manual data entry — for anyone.
3
Run payroll as always

●Bits intercepts the nominated portion and converts it to bitcoin.
●Delivered to each employee's wallet automatically.

Not on Xero?

We can still set your business up — today

Bits is built for Xero, but Bitcoin pay isn't. It works as a standard per-pay bank split, and every major Australian payroll platform supports that already — MYOB, Employment Hero, and the rest. Register your business, tell us your payroll platform, and our team sets it up with you. No integration, no waiting.

Media & Press

The story behind Bits

GPIB has released an official press release announcing Bits — covering how it works, why it matters, and the structural shift it represents for bitcoin adoption in Australia.

"The boss doesn't need to understand bitcoin. They don't need to hold it, buy it, or even think about it. They just offer it as a benefit, and Bits handles everything else."

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Your business pays Australian dollars exactly as it always has. Bits converts the nominated portion to bitcoin on behalf of each employee and delivers it to their wallet. You have zero cryptocurrency exposure.

Nothing. There is no cost to the employer to install Bits or enable it for your team. GPIB's fees are deducted from the conversion on the employee side.

Employees create a GPIB account with their Xero login, choose the dollar amount of each pay they'd like in bitcoin, and connect through Bits. Their details are written into their Xero payroll record automatically — zero manual data entry for the employee or the payroll admin.

Yes, right now. Bitcoin pay works as a standard per-pay bank split, which every major Australian payroll platform supports — MYOB, Employment Hero, and others. Register your business and tell us your platform; our team sets it up with you manually, usually within 1–2 business days. Bits automates the Xero version of this, but no business has to wait for it.

Yes. You control employee access entirely — enable or disable opt-in at any time from your Bits dashboard.

Yes — for our first cohort of businesses. Bits isn't on the Xero App Store yet (the listing is proposed and in progress), so cohort businesses connect directly through GPIB using their Xero login. Sign up now and you're first in line when the listing goes live.

Bits is built by Get Paid in Bitcoin (GPIB) — a Launceston-based Australian fintech. GPIB was established in 2014 and has been delivering bitcoin wages to Australian workers since late 2015.
