Batch payments that integrate directly with your payroll software

Telleroo makes processing payroll payments simple by allowing you to schedule and approve staff pay runs in bulk. Once approved and funded, payments are sent instantly via the Faster Payments network, no delays, no manually keying in payments and no need for file imports.

BACS payments usually take three to five working days to clear and don’t run on weekends or bank holidays. Faster Payments are sent almost instantly, 24/7, including evenings, weekends, and bank holidays.

Telleroo flags new and updated payee details and runs Confirmation of Payee checks on recipients. Distinct user roles and built-in multi-layer approval workflows provide robust payment security to ensure payroll payments are accurate and on time. 

Plus, our expert team monitor all payments and will get in touch if we spot a suspicious transaction. Here’s how our transaction monitoring team recently saved APH Accountants from making a fraudulent payroll payment.

Telleroo integrates directly with Xero Payroll, Employment Hero, Staffology, FreshPay, Buddy, Safe HR and Paiyroll.

You can also import a file from BrightPay, Sage Payroll and everywhere else!

Payments are made using the Faster Payments network, so payments are sent instantly and funds should land in employee accounts within 2 hours (but most payments arrive in minutes). This means no more waiting for BACS cycles or fitting payments in around bank holidays.

The fastest way to pay employees in the UK is via Faster Payments. Unlike BACS, which takes three to five working days to clear and doesn't process on weekends or bank holidays, Faster Payments are sent almost instantly, 24/7, 365 days a year. Telleroo uses the Faster Payments network to process bulk payroll payments, meaning your entire workforce can be paid in minutes, including on bank holidays, weekends and outside standard banking hours. Simply sync or upload your pay run from your payroll software, approve it, fund your Telleroo account, and payments are on their way.

Yes! You don't need a BACS Service User Number (SUN) to make bulk payroll payments. BACS requires businesses to either hold their own SUN or use a bureau that does, which can be a barrier for smaller businesses and accounting firms. An alternative is to use the Faster Payments network, which has no SUN requirement, processes payments almost instantly, and runs 24/7 including weekends and bank holidays. All Telleroo payments are sent via the Faster Payments Network, so there's no SUN needed, no lengthy setup with your bank, and no three-day clearing window.

Yes! Accountants, bookkeepers, and payroll bureaus can process payroll payments on behalf of clients without needing access to their bank accounts. The most common approaches are using a bureau BACS SUN, requesting third-party access to a client's online banking, or using a dedicated payment platform that keeps client funds separate and gives clients control over approvals. The latter is increasingly popular as it removes the risk and responsibility of having access to client bank accounts. Telleroo is built specifically for this model, your team creates and manages pay runs, while clients review, approve, and fund payments, keeping them in full control without you needing bank access.
