Amazing idea! Keep it up!!
Site is not accessable. http://prntscr.com/a5peyi
Looking at FAQ on your site and it says max deposit of $200.
If i wanted to convert $600 would that mean 3x $1 fee?

I would like to start off with something smallish like maybe 20% of my pay converted to bitcoins.
By my understanding the split of your paycheck is done on the banks end, any problems with frozen bank accounts in the past?

Starting off small with any 3rd party is always advised. We haven't had any issues thus far with banking. Adam works with the banks on those relationships. He will answer any email on [email protected]

I see you charge a flat rate of $1 per deposit, is there any other fees at all?
No other fees, and we publish our rates on the front page and also in your dashboard where you can peer review. That is the plan.

if not this would work out much cheaper and faster than Coinjar.
Thats the plan.

Does your company have any type of insurance in the event of a hack or error on the company side?
We store most coins in a multisig wallet. A manual process to our servers hot wallet is done when required, then paid to the client instantly. As we do not hold coins on your behalf, our exposure to theft is small.
We also only store information that is required, such as in the registration form and that is encrypted.
I have now signed up and will work out what percentage of my pay to convert tonight, hopefully by my next paycheck i will be getting bitcoins and fiat.
I will keep you all updated.

Website not working for me..
Thanks for the update, was it when you tried to register? I did a few more tests yesterday and it seemed fine for me.
Website not working for me..
doof advised me that they have been having some trouble. I sent him a screenshot of the error page i was getting from trying to log on with desktop.I tried again later and it worked using my android phone.
If you still have trouble just email them and they will get back to you.
One more question i have for doof is now that i have signed up it this instant so if i was to get paid in a few days it would send me the pre arranged bitcoin % of my paycheck?

Hi doof,
I have been thinking about doing this for a few months now and would like to give it a go.
You have done a lot of great work for the Australian bitcoin community so with you behind this company it give me a good feeling of trust.
How would this benefit me more than just say buying my coins each fortnight through Coinjar, better savings? less hassle?
Could you please PM me ato.gov.au email?

Thanks for the kinds words. Yes, less hassle is the USP.

Im guessing once the fiat is availble in my bank then it would only take a few minutes for the transaction to be broadcasted to the network and would then be sent in btc to my wallet to await confirmation
Buying through Coinjar is only a 1% fee but that can add up and also can take between 3-5 days for the cash to clear so you can then buy coins, the price can rise a bit in those days and it makes it a long wait.

Well, may be try also offer something more to Australian residents, for example BTC online wallet, then you will have more customers
I wouldnt store 10% of my wages in a wallet on their site... I imagine if they offered that service, people would assume it was a scam then. We Aussies are a trusty bunch
Does your employer paying a % in bitcoin have any tax implications?
No. PAYG is taken out by the employer anyway. PM me for my ato.gov.au email if you have any tax questions.

We don't want to be another online wallet, but thanks for the feedback.

[Update Sprint 4]
We did not consume as many story points as we would have liked this sprint. Most of the development effort was around finalising the branding, and making the dashboard as intuitive as possible. New drop down menus and modals have been added to try and achieve this goal. Other minor bugs where fixed, including some jQuery issues stoping the site rendering correctly on mobile devices.
