Datacom Payroll

About this app

The MyPay mobile app is a payroll application for employees of organisations who use Datacom’s DataPay payroll software to pay their staff.

MyPay provides a range of functions and information to employees that are pay related. It requires the organisation to have enabled Datacom Direct Access and you use the same login details as you would when you login to the Datacom Direct Access portal.

Datacom develops payroll software for Australian and New Zealand organisations. Datacom’s payroll software is cloud based and continually being improved. Every time an organisation logs into Datacom’s system, they access the latest version.

Ratings and reviews

A mind bendingly awful user experience. Constantly requires 2FA login, even if you just switch away from the app for a few seconds and you can't paste the code into the number entry fields as it doesn't allow it. It looks and works like it was made 10 years ago and hasn't been updated since.

The login page doesn't respond, I thought it was a one-off but a poorly designed app UI, it doesn't take the user's input. Despite having a brand new Android phone, the developer can't come up with a lame excuse like outdated specs.

Constantly fails with "Bad request" popup (usually 5-6 stacked atop one another). Can't filter out regional public holidays that don't apply to me. Highly inconsistent back button behaviour. Display of leave balances takes some /weird/ approaches; displaying as "X weeks (Y days)" seems extremely odd, are days not most important? No way to browse old payslips in a list without clicking back back back through weeks/months/years of the things. Really struggling with what they were thinking here.

What’s new

Display the pay packet type (Reverse, Adjust, Advance) and the period end date which the transaction relates to.
