Common questions about MYOB for accounting software

The same questions Australian merchants ask before signing up.

  • MYOB's range starts at $11/mo (Solo) for a sole trader. The cloud plans for a small business start at $35/mo (Lite), with Business Pro above it and payroll as an add-on at $3/emp/mo (Lite/Pro). AccountRight Plus and the plan above it, at $210/mo (Premier), are the advanced line, with payroll and inventory included and multi-currency on the higher of the two.

  • MYOB's entry plan is $11/mo (Solo). The next plan up is $35/mo (Lite), Business Pro and AccountRight Plus sit above it, and the range goes up to $210/mo (Premier). All plans are monthly with no lock-in contract. On the Business plans, add $3/emp/mo (Lite/Pro) if you pay staff.

  • It depends on the plan. On MYOB's Business plans payroll is an add-on at $3/emp/mo (Lite/Pro), and on the AccountRight plans it is included. The sole trader entry plan does not run payroll at all.

  • MYOB Business plans include Unlimited users, so adding your bookkeeper or accountant does not change the price. Solo is built for one person.

  • Yes, MYOB is a monthly subscription, and there is no lock-in contract, so you can move between plans or cancel at any time. Payroll on the lower plans is billed at $3/emp/mo (Lite/Pro) on top of the plan.

  • MYOB is Australian-built accounting and payroll software. It lodges BAS and GST with the ATO, reports payroll under STP Phase 2, and runs inventory on the AccountRight plans. It has AI features built in for BAS and bank reconciliation, and support is available during Australian business hours and online.

  • Yes. MYOB supports direct BAS and IAS lodgement through its ATO connection. GST is tracked as you code transactions and the return is lodged from inside MYOB.

  • MYOB or Xero comes down to the plan you need and how many people you pay. MYOB's entry plan is $11/mo (Solo), with payroll as an add-on at $3/emp/mo (Lite/Pro) on its lower plans and included on AccountRight. Xero includes payroll and unlimited users on every plan. Both lodge BAS and run STP Phase 2, so use the table above with your own numbers to see which costs less.

  • MYOB includes multi-currency only on its top plan, $210/mo (Premier). Lower plans do not include it, so a business invoicing overseas customers needs that tier.

  • Yes. MYOB Business creates quotes, emails them to the customer and converts an accepted quote into an invoice with the details prefilled, and the MYOB Assist app can quote on site. MYOB does not cap the number of invoices you send.

Strengths and trade-offs

  • Inventory on AccountRight
  • Direct BAS lodgement and STP Phase 2

Cons

  • Payroll is a per-employee add-on on lower plans
  • Inventory needs one of the higher plans
  • Multi-currency only on the top plan
