Go Casual 2.0 Launched: Supporting Casual, Part Time & Full Time Payroll in New Zealand

Revibe Digital is proud to announce the release of goCasual 2.0, a major upgrade to the New Zealand payroll platform built specifically for Kiwi businesses.

This update expands goCasual beyond casual payroll. Businesses can now manage
casual, part time and full time employees in one streamlined system designed around New Zealand employment law.

What’s New in goCasual 2.0

Support for Part Time & Full Time Employees

goCasual now handles permanent and salaried staff alongside casual workers.

  • 20 days annual leave entitlement tracking
  • Pro rata calculations for part time employees
  • Automatic 5th week entitlement recognition after 12 months where applicable
  • Leave rollover management

Automatic Annual Leave for Casual Staff

  • Automatic 8 percent leave accrual on every dollar earned
  • Real time balance tracking
  • Compliance with the Holidays Act 2003
  • Accurate final pay leave payout calculations

Leave Request Workflow

Employees can submit leave requests directly from their dashboard. Managers can approve or decline in one click, with automatic balance validation to prevent over booking.

Public Holiday Integration

The system now includes a built in New Zealand public holiday database, including regional observances, which integrates directly with leave calculations and timesheet processing.

Enhanced Employee Management

  • Step by step employee onboarding wizard
  • Full audit log system for compliance transparency
  • Improved dashboards and employee profile views

Dark Mode & Performance Improvements

  • Full dark mode theme across the platform
  • Faster payroll processing
  • Improved mobile responsiveness

Built by Revibe Digital for New Zealand Businesses

goCasual is designed and developed in New Zealand by Revibe Digital. Unlike overseas payroll systems adapted for local rules, goCasual is built around:

  • IRD reporting requirements
  • KiwiSaver calculations
  • ACC levy handling
  • Student loan deductions
  • Holidays Act compliance

This release reflects months of development and direct feedback from Kiwi employers who needed a simpler, more practical payroll solution.
