BusinessSensor in South Africa

When you create your workspace you choose its base currency — South African rand (ZAR), symbol R. Every invoice, report and the accounts are kept in it. Customers or suppliers who deal in another currency are added as extra currencies; your base currency stays the same.

Set your country to South Africa and BusinessSensor drafts the taxes a business like yours files there — sales tax such as VAT at the local rate, withholding tax and payroll deductions — each with its tax authority and its accounts. You check the list and nothing is created until you import it.

The rates are yours to confirm: they are a draft for you to check, not tax advice.

Where your plan includes Payroll, AI drafts the payroll tax rules for South Africa — income tax bands, reliefs and contributions — from official sources and shows you where each one came from. Your Administrator checks and approves them before any pay run uses them.

You can start with a free trial, no card needed. When you subscribe, you can pay with:

• Card (Stripe) — Visa, Mastercard, Amex, charged in USD.
• Flutterwave — Cards, mobile money, bank, paid in ZAR.

15% VAT is added to a subscription billed to a business in South Africa.

Card and bank-transfer payments you take in BusinessSensor go through a payment provider. You can connect your own Paystack or Stripe account so the money settles straight into your own bank — check that the provider serves businesses in South Africa before you sign up with them.
