How the subscription is counted

There is one unit: an active person in the “Employees” list. Everyone who can be put on the rota counts, the owner and managers included, with or without the app on their phone. Dismissed people and trainees do not count, so a seasonal worker is dismissed for the off-season and brought back when they return. Locations, departments and job positions on Basic are unlimited and do not change the price.

People are billed in packs of 5: a team of 23 pays for 25, and a team of three can still buy Basic and pays for 5, that is $9.95. The invoice comes once a month in advance and takes the largest number of people on the list during the past month: anyone on it for at least a day is on the invoice. Within the pack new people add nothing; over the pack mid-month, 5 more seats from the next invoice, with no charge by days. Someone dismissed is still on the nearest invoice and gone from the next one: a paid month is not recalculated.

Yearly costs 20% less: $1.59 instead of $1.99 per person a month, one invoice for 12 months for people in packs of 5. When the team grows above the paid seats, the new people go into the monthly invoice at the monthly price while there are more of them: people for an event or a season don't have to be paid until the end of the year. For people who stay long, it is cheaper to buy seats until the end of the year at the yearly price, in whole months. A dismissed person's seat stays paid until the end of the year, and a new person takes it at no extra cost. On the renewal day an invoice for the next year comes for everyone on the list; you can switch back to monthly from the renewal day.

API keys, webhooks and AI assistants come with Basic at no extra charge. Modules are turned on separately: time tracking, equipment tracking and training are free for now, and when a module gets a price we warn you 30 days ahead, and its first 14 days after turning it on are free. POS integration is connected on request.

The first 30 days after sign-up run on Basic in full, and switching to Basic earlier takes nothing away: the paid month starts after them. After that the organization either pays for Basic or stays on Free within its limits: the data, the rota and the team app stay where they are, and the rota and the payroll sheet can be downloaded to Excel at any time. An unpaid invoice: everything works for 7 days, from day 8 the rota and people are view only until it is paid, while clock-ins, swaps and chat always work. The invoice and the payment method are agreed in the support chat in the admin panel or by email at support@inshift.app.

Frequently asked questions

How much does InShift cost?▾

Free for one location and up to 10 people, payroll included, and Basic at $1.99 per person a month, $1.59 when paid yearly. People are billed in packs of 5. AI assistants and the API come at no extra charge, time tracking and equipment tracking are turned on as separate modules and are free for now, and POS integration is connected on request. Prices are in US dollars, excluding VAT. The first 30 days after sign-up run on Basic in full.

Who counts as a person?▾

Every active person in the “Employees” list: those who can be put on the rota, the owner and managers included, with or without the app. Dismissed people do not count, so a seasonal worker can be dismissed for the off-season and brought back later. Trainees are not on the Basic invoice but count toward the Free plan limit.

We added people mid-month. What does it cost?▾

Within the pack, nothing: 18 people in a pack of up to 20 can become 20 at no extra cost. Over the pack: 5 more seats from the next invoice, with no charge by days. The invoice takes the highest number of people in the past month, so someone who was on the list for a week and left is on the next invoice and gone from the one after.

How does yearly billing work?▾

$1.59 instead of $1.99 per person a month, one invoice for 12 months in packs of 5. New people above the paid seats go into the monthly invoice at the monthly price while there are more of them; for people who stay long, it is cheaper to buy seats until the end of the year at the yearly price, in whole months. A dismissed person's seat stays paid until the end of the year, and a new person takes it at no extra cost. A paid year is not refunded, and you can switch back to monthly from the renewal day.

What happens after 30 days?▾

The organization either pays for Basic or stays on Free: one location, up to 10 people including trainees, the rota for this week and next. The data and the rota stay where they are, and payroll stays on Free too.

Is the team app paid separately?▾

No. The app for iPhone and Android comes with both plans for every employee, there is no charge per phone.

How do we get the 20% discount?▾

Pay yearly: Basic at $1.59 instead of $1.99 per person a month. Write to the support chat in the admin panel or to support@inshift.app and we send the invoice for the year.

There are four of us. Can we buy Basic?▾

Yes. Free is not mandatory for a small team: Basic is sold for any number of people and billed in packs of 5, so four people pay for 5, that is $9.95 a month or $7.95 a month paid yearly, and it opens the rota with no time limit, unlimited locations and the modules.

Is there a limit on locations in Basic?▾

No. Locations, departments and job positions are unlimited, the price depends on the number of people alone. A chain with 14 sites and 84 people pays for 85 people, 17 packs of 5, not for 14 sites.

Which currency do we pay in, and what about VAT?▾

Organizations in Europe pay in euros, everyone else outside Ukraine in US dollars; the currency on this page follows the country you are reading it from. Prices exclude VAT: a business registered for VAT in the EU or the UK puts its number on the invoice and accounts for the tax itself under the reverse charge.
