Everything you need to know about using ShiftManager
Creating an account is simple:
No credit card is required to sign up — you start on the Free plan and can upgrade any time if you need more.
To add a workplace:
The Free plan supports 1 workplace. Juggling multiple jobs? Individual Pro gives you unlimited workplaces.
ShiftManager supports 30+ currencies including:
You can change your currency in Settings at any time.
Creating shifts is quick and easy:
Pro Tip: Create shift templates for recurring shifts to save time!
Shifts you've scheduled but haven't worked yet. You can edit or delete these freely.
Shifts you've completed and confirmed. Earnings are locked in and counted in your reports.
Once a shift is confirmed, it cannot be edited to maintain accurate earnings records.
Shift templates help you quickly create recurring shifts:
Perfect for weekly recurring shifts at the same workplace!
Yes! Use the Bulk Shift Creation feature:
Great for creating a whole month's worth of shifts in seconds! Free plan accounts are limited to 15 shifts per month in total, including bulk-created ones.
Earnings are calculated based on your pay rate model:
Hourly Rate:
Hours Worked × Hourly Rate = Total Earnings
Example: 8 hours × $15/hour = $120
Daily Rate:
Fixed amount per shift
Example: $100 per day regardless of hours
Fixed Rate:
Set amount for specific shifts
Example: $250 for a weekend event

Free is available forever, no credit card required, and includes:
If you're close to a limit, you'll see an upgrade prompt before anything is blocked — your existing data is never affected by hitting a limit.
Individual Pro is $4.99/month (or $39/year) and is built for people juggling multiple jobs on their own:
Every new Pro subscription starts with a 14-day free trial — cancel anytime before it ends and you won't be charged.
Business is for employers and agencies scheduling other people's shifts, not just your own. It adds an agency dashboard, worker groups, shift approvals, role management, and bulk scheduling/attendance reports on top of everything in Individual Pro.
It's billed as one flat monthly rate for your whole team — not a per-worker fee — with tiers based on active worker count:
Workers invited by an agency or employer use ShiftManager at no cost to them — see the full breakdown on the Pricing page.
Yes — upgrade, downgrade, or move between individual and agency tiers any time from Settings. Changes are prorated, and downgrading never deletes your existing data; you simply drop back to that plan's limits going forward.
If a trial ends without a payment method on file, or a renewal payment fails after a few attempts, your account automatically reverts to the Free plan. Nothing is deleted — your workplaces, shifts, and history stay exactly as they were, you'll just be back under Free plan limits until you resubscribe.
For security, we recommend using a strong password with at least 8 characters.
Yes! You can change your currency at any time:
Note: Changing currency only affects display. Existing earnings remain in their original currency value.
