Pricing questions

What is a manager user?

Anyone who can manage another person's shifts or records. A manager who also clocks in counts once as a manager.

What is an employee user?

Someone who clocks in and out and uses only their own shifts, requests and records.

How is annual pricing calculated?

Annual prices equal ten monthly payments: £99.90 per manager and £35 per employee.

How does the Nightingale bundle work?

With three or more qualifying recurring Nightingale app subscriptions, annual pricing is applied first and then discounted by 20%.

Stop guessing who turned up.

Ten minutes to your first verified clock-in. No card, no migration, no lock-in.
