Status Tracked

Payments firm that takes a business’s card payment and pays the ATO itself, for a fee of 1.00 to 2.10 per cent plus GST on its free plan per its fees guide; its FAQ says its Mastercard fee rose 0.2 points on 1 October 2026. It says it does not surcharge; no card network or regulator has ruled on that.

The 12 names most often in the same articles as pay.com.au. A line's weight, and the number by each name, is how many articles name both. Grey chords join the neighbours most often named together themselves (two articles or more). Circles are people and organisations, squares are mechanisms. Named together is all this shows: it is not a finding about what the relationship is.

How this page is assembled. The name, status and role are the desk's entity record. The article list, case counts, and connections are read by script from the published articles that name pay.com.au. A connection is a name that appears in the same articles; it is not a finding about the relationship. Under How we know, the sources are those articles' references, counted once each and tiered only where the desk declared a tier; a grade beside an article is its weakest headline finding, shown only where every headline finding is graded. The page is rebuilt when an article is published or changed.
