91����

About the Business

is a New Zealand charity helping Kiwis take control of their debt and rebuild their financial future. CEO leads a small but mighty team of 15 who support more than 500 people every month. When funding cuts hit last year, Christine knew they needed to change course to find a smarter, more sustainable way to keep their mission alive.

The Challenge

As a lean not-for-profit, Debtfix lacked the time and resources to invest in a system that managed HR and payroll efficiently. Information was scattered across spreadsheets, shared calendars, and a payroll system that just wasn’t working:

“We’d have bits over here in one platform and bits in another. It was hard to keep track of leave, contracts, and entitlements. It just wasn’t working,” Christine explained.

Manual admin caused errors and delays, even accidental double-payments of leave. 

“Previously, we’d book two weeks off, and our payroll software would double up. We’d end up paying people twice.”

The Solution

91���� brought everything, onboarding, leave management, payroll integration, and digital contracts, all into one platform.

“It’s so much easier now. Everyone can see leave in one calendar, log expenses in minutes, and access payslips directly. 91���� has become our HR person.”

The ROI

• $53K NZD in annual savings by switching from their previous software and eliminating the need for a part-time HR hire
• 90% less time spent managing leave
• 10 hours saved each month on contract management alone
• 100% visibility and confidence in payroll and compliance

Why It Matters

With 91����, Christine has complete peace of mind knowing HR and payroll are quietly taken care of in the background.

“Things are getting done correctly now because it only takes five or ten minutes rather than an hour or two.” 

For a lean, under-resourced charity, that efficiency translates to more time to focus on their mission of helping people in hardship.

“It’s had a great impact… it’s made my life a lot happier.”
