Know what you made tonight. Not on payday. After a double, nobody wants to do math. So the tips end up on a napkin and payday ends up a surprise. PayJar keeps every shift and every tip in one place, does the math, and tells you when your check comes up short. MADE FOR TIPPED WORK • Cash tips, card tips and your share of the tip pool on every shift • Tip-out to the bar, bussers or kitchen, as an amount or a percentage of sales or tips • Your real hourly rate: wages plus tips, minus tip-out • Your state's minimum wage and tipped wage. If a slow week leaves you under the minimum, you see what your employer has to make up • Best days, cash vs. card and a year-end summary IS YOUR CHECK RIGHT? Type in the gross on your paycheck. PayJar compares it with the hours you logged and says it straight: it matches, or "You were underpaid by $38.40." Wage Check is free. OVERTIME, DONE RIGHT • Weekly overtime after 40 hours, on from the start • Daily overtime and double time for states that have them, like California • An hour already paid as daily overtime isn't counted again for the week • On a tipped wage, overtime is figured on the full minimum wage, not on $2.13 • Night, weekend and holiday differentials, if your job pays them • Every shift shows how its pay was worked out CLOCKING IN SHOULDN'T BE MORE WORK • One tap to start or end a shift, with Undo in case you tap by mistake • Forgot to clock in? Start the shift at the time you really walked in • Breaks, manual or automatic (for example, 30 minutes after 6 hours) • Quick shifts for the ones you work every week • A close that runs past midnight counts for the day it started • Weekly, biweekly, every 4 weeks, twice a month or monthly pay periods YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • No account, no sign-up, no ads • Your hours, pay, tips and notes stay on your iPhone, with backup to your own iCloud • Excel and CSV export, always free • Anonymous usage stats and crash reports help us fix what breaks.
