User reviews

Doesn’t differentiate between tv/film or commercial background work.

This doesn’t work if I’m trying to calculate commercial background work that I did on a weekend. Which is double pay. It also didn’t calculate golden time and when I entered my start time at 8:30 AM and worked till 2:30 AM. It doesn’t recognize that I’ve worked 17 hours

Essential Tool

No more guessing in holding how much money we’ve got or how much more longer to go until Golden time

GET THIS YOU FOOL

There is no better source for anyone in the industry. Actorspay isn’t even close to this and is far less accurate. Start being responsible with your money guys, get this app, and track. No one is gonna do it for you and unfortunately mistakes are made all the time. Be informed and Get your pension! Thanks guy who created this, I hope to run into you on set someday.

Working Again

It worked wonderfully until I paid for the upgrade last night, 6/6/25. Now, the app is stuck on the landing page and will not open at all. If this gets fixed, I will change my review to five stars as I think the app, at least at one point, was worth a five-star-review. UPDATE: Today, 6/11, the app finally opened and works fine. Also, David, the developer emailed with great news about the forthcoming update. I have now changed my one star review to five. I have my favorite actor wage calculating app back. Thank you David.
