Case Study: Lime Bookkeeping cuts payroll time by 67% with Wagepoint

Lime Bookkeeping cuts payroll time 67% with Wagepoint

Lime Bookkeeping, a bookkeeping firm founded by Patrick McNamara, faced significant challenges with its previous desktop payroll software. The manual processes were unsustainable, creating constant friction, security risks, and an overwhelming workload that left the solo operator burning out. Needing a solution that integrated with Xero and automated key tasks, the firm turned to the vendor, Wagepoint.

By implementing Wagepoint, Lime Bookkeeping automated payroll remittances, tax filings, and syncing with Xero. The results were immediate and impactful, cutting the time spent per pay run by up to 67%—from 45 minutes down to just 5-15 minutes per client. Wagepoint eliminated year-end corrections, prevented CRA penalties, and provided a self-serve employee portal that drastically reduced administrative requests. This efficiency allowed the firm to grow its team, improve client retention, and scale its services.
