The problem
Three income channels. One set of obligations.
A working month for a locum now runs through agency shifts, direct bookings and, for many, telehealth: about one in five GP services were delivered by telehealth in 2022-23 (MBS Review Advisory Committee, Telehealth Post-Implementation Review, health.gov.au, June 2024). Each channel has its own invoices, its own GST treatment and its own super position.
Meanwhile the paperwork has changed status. Every state and territory has issued payroll tax guidance, assessments or amnesties covering payments to contractor practitioners (state-by-state snapshot: Gorilla Jobs, October 2025). Personal services income rules apply when more than 50% of your income comes from your own skills and effort (ATO, ato.gov.au), which describes most locum work. GST registration is required once turnover passes $75,000 (ATO, ato.gov.au).
Your shift records, invoices and super evidence are no longer admin. They are documentation. Sessional keeps them complete, consistent and in your hands.
01 | Get paid
Invoices that chase themselves.
Issue AUD invoices in your own name from any shift, agency or direct. Automatic chasers follow up politely so you never have to send the awkward second email. Workplaces approve and pay through a signed link, no account required on their side. Every shift moves through one pipeline, offered to confirmed to delivered to invoiced to paid, so nothing slips between sources.
- 01Create the invoice from any delivered shift.
- 02Automatic chasers keep the original PDF attached.
- 03Workplaces respond through a signed link without an account.

Sessional tracks GST across every income source and shows your BAS position quarter by quarter. The super guarantee tracker records what has been paid against contractor work at the current 12% rate. The PSI diagnostic shows how the personal services income tests relate to your work pattern. Mileage is logged at 91c per kilometre, capped at 5,000 business kilometres per car. On Pro, everything syncs two ways with Xero.
- 01Your GST and BAS position updates across every income source.
- 02Super and PSI records stay beside the work that created them.
- 03Your registered agent, or Xero, handles lodgement.

Why this existsAU record
Built from 45 years of locum general practice.
Founder storyMy father has been a GP for over 45 years. The system behind Sessional ran his locum books privately for a decade before I rebuilt it for every AHPRA profession. It was never designed to impress investors. It was designed to be right.
Pricing
A flat fee that never scales with your income.
Run a quiet month on Free. Move up when the working admin warrants it. The subscription stays flat and Sessional takes 0% commission.

The honest boundary
Keep your registered agent for lodgement and advice.
Sessional prepares BAS-ready figures across all your income sources. Your registered tax agent lodges, or your accountant works from the Xero sync on Pro. Sessional shows your position; it does not provide tax or financial advice.

Tools and detail for the work in front of you.
Questions, answered plainly.
Is Sessional an agency or a marketplace?
No. Sessional charges 0% commission and takes no part in your bookings or your pay. The public directory is optional and exists so workplaces can find you directly; the relationship, and every dollar, stays yours.
Does Sessional touch my money?
No. There is no trust account and no Sessional bank account in the middle. Invoices go out in your name and payments land in your account. Sessional records them; it never holds them.
Does Sessional lodge my BAS or tax return?
No, and we say so plainly. Sessional prepares BAS-ready figures across all your income sources. Your registered tax agent lodges, or your accountant works from the Xero sync on Pro. Sessional shows your position; it does not provide tax or financial advice.
I work through a company or a trust. Can I still use Sessional?
Yes. Sessional supports sole traders, Pty Ltd companies and trusts, and the PSI diagnostic is built for exactly the questions that come with those structures. Percentage-based services that support sole traders only cannot take you with them when you incorporate.
What does the Free plan actually do?
Real work, deliberately. You get 5 shifts and 5 invoices every month with core tracking, enough to run a quiet month end to end, not a demo. When your volume outgrows it, Plus is $29.99 a month, with $19.99 early access until 1 January 2027.
Who operates Sessional, and what happens to my data?
Sessional Australia, a service of Sessional Limited (company no. 17159781). Your record belongs to you: export everything you have entered at any time, and starting on Free requires no card.

Your work, on the record.
