whenever it says in your contract. Some places pay first of month, some pay last thursday of month, some pay middle tuesday etc etc
We used to pay by cheque when we started up but later changed to BACS. Pay day is, as Bob says, as per your contract which in ours is last calendar day of the month unless as determined otherwise by the company - which gives us a bit of lee way if things go amiss!

Most young companies sometimes need a bit of flexibility with the payday as cashflow is a big factor.
