Everything you need

Stop juggling six apps and a spreadsheet

One login. One source of truth. Built specifically for the way South African small businesses actually run.

Money in & out

Quotes & invoicing

Send branded quotes, convert them to invoices in one click, track who's paid and who hasn't. Sales tax and recurring invoices handled.

Supplier payments

Pay creditors in bulk via Netcash. Build a batch, submit, track release — no spreadsheet exports, no recapturing.

Bills & creditors

Capture supplier invoices, track due dates, schedule into batches. Recurring bills auto-create each month.

Cashflow forecasts

See your cash position weeks ahead, not months behind. Walk into accountant meetings prepared.

Your team

HR & employees

Employee records, teams, org chart, contracts. Self-service for staff to update their own details.

Leave & attendance

Apply for leave, approve from a single queue, track attendance and clock-ins. Built around SA leave types.

Timesheets & S&T

Log time per project, claim subsistence & travel against SARS-default rates, manager approval flow built in.

Payroll

SA-compliant payslips with PAYE + UIF, payslip PDFs, monthly salary batches that flow into Netcash.

Self-service portal

Each employee sees their own profile, payslips, leave balance, timesheets, expense claims — no extra logins.

Organogram

Live org chart from your employee + team data. No PowerPoint sketches that go stale the moment someone joins.

Sales & operations

CRM & opportunities

Accounts, contacts, deals with stages and forecasts. Lightweight enough that sales actually keeps it current.

Project management

Active projects, costing per project, who's working on what. Tie time and expenses to the right bucket.

For software teams

Developer effort tracking

Connect your code repositories (GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab and others) to estimate engineering hours from commits, surface contributor activity, and link work to projects. No timer apps, no chasing developers for timesheets.

Connected to your stack

One dashboard

Cash position, unpaid bills due this month, leave queue, opportunities — every module on one page.

Plays nicely with your accounting

Sync with QuickBooks, Xero, Sage Accounting or Sage Payroll if you've already invested there — or use Zealo's own books and skip the second tool entirely.

Roles & permissions

Finance sees finance. HR sees HR. Employees see their own stuff. Permission model that actually scales with your org.

"We stopped paying for a stack of accounting, payroll, CRM and project-tracking tools. Zealo replaced all of them — and it's actually built for how we work."
