See pricingGood questions, straight answers.
Is TEAM MATE really free?
Yes, for teams of 10 or fewer, with the whole app: rosters, time clock, timesheets, leave and messaging. It's not a trial, so there's no card and no time limit. Past 10 staff it's $60 a month for up to 30 staff, then $3 a month for each person after that.
Who is TEAM MATE for?
Australian businesses that roster shift workers. There's a ready-made setup for cafés, restaurants and bars, fast food and takeaway, hotels, shops, hair and beauty salons, cleaning businesses, security teams, clinics, pharmacies, vet clinics, aged care homes, disability and home care services, childcare centres, tutoring centres, gyms, swim and leisure centres, events and venues, building crews, field service, warehouses, factories, farms, call centres, not-for-profits and charities, and councils: pick yours in the welcome wizard and it adds the jobs, a typical week and suggested rules to start from.
Do I pay for managers?
No. A seat is a person on the roster, not a login, so owners and managers who don't work shifts cost nothing.
Can I run more than one location?
Yes. Each venue, store or site is its own location, so a franchise owner can run every store in one account, and you can share staff between them when one is short.
Can I set my own weekend and public-holiday rates?
Yes. Set your weekend, evening and public-holiday rates once and pay adds them up on every shift. You choose the rates.
Does it work with my payroll software?
TEAM MATE exports approved timesheets as files your payroll software can read, including Xero-ready files.
Where is my data kept?
In Australia. TEAM MATE is made in Melbourne and hosted in Australia.
Your crew signs in from their pocket.
Employers set up TEAM MATE on the web and invite the team — everyone else just signs into the app with their work email. The staff app is coming to the App Store and Google Play.
