Running a café is hard enough
without these on top.

Here's what Perth hospitality owners tell us before they come to Prosper.

📋

"I nearly missed my BAS again."

Quarterly deadlines sneak up when you're running a busy kitchen. ATO penalties are the last thing you need on top of everything else.

🌙

"I'm doing the books at midnight."

After a 14-hour day, the last thing you want is spreadsheets and receipts. That time belongs to you — not to your accounts.

❓

"I don't know if I'm actually profitable."

Revenue looks okay but cash is always tight. You're busy every day but can't see where the money actually goes.

👥

"Casual staff and penalty rates are a nightmare."

Split shifts, weekend rates, public holiday loading, casual conversion — getting any of this wrong is a Fair Work liability waiting to happen.

📢

"Award rates changed again and I didn't know."

The Fair Work Commission updates hospitality award rates every 1 July. Miss the update and you're looking at back-pay, penalties and staff disputes.

💸

"Cash is tight between busy and slow periods."

Weekend revenue is great, Monday is dead. Without cash flow tracking you can't plan wages, stock or rent. You're always guessing.

The Prosper difference

Before and after — this is what we actually fix.

Most café owners are drowning in chaos. We replace it with a clear system built specifically for hospitality.

Full compliance support

Beyond bookkeeping.

Prosper isn't just a bookkeeper. We're your business compliance partner — covering everything a Perth café or restaurant needs to stay protected and profitable.

📊

Bookkeeping & Payroll

Daily transactions, bank reconciliation, payroll processing, superannuation, PAYG and STP reporting — fully handled by Prosper every week.

📋

BAS Preparation

We prepare your BAS every quarter — GST, PAYG, all calculated correctly. You lodge it yourself directly with the ATO, or we can connect you with a registered BAS agent if needed.

Prosper prepares only. Lodgement is by the business owner or a registered BAS agent.
⚖️

Award Rate & Super Monitoring

Fair Work updates hospitality award rates every 1 July. We monitor changes to the Hospitality and Restaurant Industry Awards and flag updates before they affect your payroll.

We also track superannuation rate changes — currently 11.5%, increasing to 12% — so your obligations are always correct.

🛡️

Insurance Referral

Not sure if your café is properly covered? We connect you with the right insurance broker for your specific situation — no advice, just the right introduction.

Business insurance Workers compensation Public liability Business interruption
Referral service only. Insurance is arranged through a licensed broker.
📅

Compliance Calendar

We keep track of your key dates — BAS deadlines, super due dates, award review dates, payroll tax thresholds — and remind you well in advance. No more surprise obligations.

💡

Monthly Business Insights

Every month you get a plain-English report covering your food cost %, labour %, cash flow and net profit — with commentary on what's working and where to look.

Why Prosper

Built for hospitality.
Not generic.

Other bookkeepers treat your café like a trades business. We don't. Every service is designed around how cafes and restaurants actually operate.

🍽️

Hospitality-first thinking

Food cost %, labour %, cover counts, COGS — metrics that actually matter to a café owner, not just a standard P&L.

💰

Fixed monthly pricing

One flat rate. No hourly billing surprises. No end-of-month invoice shock. Budget with confidence.

⚡

48-hour setup

Streamlined onboarding means your books are sorted fast. Most clients are up and running within two days.

☁️

Xero specialists

Certified Partner Advisor. We set it up, connect your bank feeds, and configure it specifically for hospitality reporting.

⚖️

Compliance monitoring

Award rates, super changes, BAS deadlines — we stay on top of it so you don't have to.

🤝

No lock-in contracts

Stay because the service is good. Cancel anytime. We earn your business every single month.

Why Xero

Built for business owners,
not accountants.

Xero is cloud-based accounting software designed so that non-accountants can actually understand their own numbers. Clean dashboard, plain English reports, accessible from your phone or laptop — anywhere, anytime.

Unlike MYOB — which was built for accountants and requires real training just to navigate — Xero is intuitive from day one. You don't need an accounting background to see exactly where your money is going.

As a Xero Certified Partner Advisor, Michael sets everything up, connects it to your live bank feeds, and configures it specifically for hospitality reporting.

🎁 Xero setup is FREE with a 12-month commitment to Prosper.
Available as a one-off setup for $500 ex GST for month-to-month clients.

"Michael has been with us from the very beginning and honestly made the financial side of running our café stress-free from day one. Clear monthly reports, payroll always on time, and we always know exactly where we stand. Wouldn't have it any other way."

Questions

Common questions.

Yes. Hospitality is our primary focus. We understand food cost management, split shifts, daily cash reconciliation, award rates, and the tight margins that come with running a Perth café or restaurant.
Yes — and most of our clients do. We prepare your BAS completely so it's ready to go, and you lodge it directly with the ATO through your MyGov or ATO online portal. If you prefer to use a registered BAS agent, we can connect you with one.
We monitor Fair Work Commission updates — particularly the annual wage review effective 1 July — and flag any changes that affect your hospitality award (Hospitality Industry General Award or Restaurant Industry Award). We update your payroll settings accordingly so you're always compliant.
Primarily Xero. As a Certified Xero Partner Advisor, Michael handles the full setup, bank feed connection and hospitality-specific configuration. Xero setup is free with a 12-month commitment, or $500 ex GST for month-to-month clients.
Most clients are up and running within 48 hours of signing on. We have a streamlined onboarding process so your books are being managed almost immediately.
No lock-in contracts. Stay because the service is good, not because you're stuck. We work month to month. If you commit to 12 months upfront, Xero setup is included at no cost.
We don't arrange insurance directly, but we can connect you with the right licensed insurance broker for your situation — covering business insurance, workers compensation, public liability and business interruption cover. It's a referral service, no advice fee.
That's exactly why people come to us. We do a full cleanup as part of onboarding and get everything back on track. No judgment — just results.
