PayClose is a shift pay tracker and paycheck review app for hourly workers. Plan your shifts, confirm the hours you actually worked, estimate gross pay, and compare your records with every paycheck—one pay period at a time.
Built for rotating schedules, night shifts, overtime, unpaid breaks, shift differentials, changing hours, and multiple jobs, PayClose turns a scattered work record into one clear workflow:
PLANNED → WORKED → EXPECTED → PAID → CLOSED
SEE WHAT NEEDS ATTENTION NOW
Open PayClose to see your current pay period, next shift, worked hours, expected gross pay, and any items that still need review. The home screen is designed for fast repeat use—not for making you search through a dense shift calendar.
TRACK PLANNED AND WORKED SHIFTS
• Add day, evening, night, overnight, and custom shifts
• Use reusable shift patterns for rotating work schedules
• Confirm an unchanged shift in one tap
• Edit actual start time, end time, and unpaid breaks
• Keep jobs and schedules organized with clear labels
• Review work hours by day, week, month, or pay period
ESTIMATE GROSS PAY CLEARLY
Create pay rules for each job and let PayClose calculate a personal gross-pay estimate from the information you enter.
• Set a separate hourly rate for each job
• Configure weekly overtime rules and multipliers
• Add night, weekend, or custom shift differentials
• Include fixed bonuses or allowances
• Account for paid and unpaid breaks
• Open any total to see the hours, rates, and rules behind it
PayClose shows how an estimate was built, so you can review the inputs yourself.
COMPARE YOUR PAYCHECK BY PAY PERIOD
When payday arrives, enter the gross amount from your paycheck and compare it with your own shift and work-hours record.
• Compare expected gross pay with entered paid amounts
• Review regular hours, overtime, differentials, and bonuses
• Identify categories that may need another look
• Trace a difference back to source shifts and pay rules
• Add a note and mark the review as resolved
• Keep a closed pay-period snapshot for future reference
PayClose uses neutral review language. A difference means your records do not currently match; it does not automatically mean your employer made an error.
BUILT FOR MULTIPLE JOBS AND COMPLEX SCHEDULES
Use separate pay periods, hourly rates, shift templates, and pay rules for each employer or job. PayClose is useful for nurses, CNAs, EMTs, security workers, warehouse and manufacturing staff, retail and hospitality workers, and anyone managing changing shifts or more than one job.
PRIVATE, OFFLINE, AND PERSONAL
Your core shift and pay records are designed to work on your device without requiring an account.
• Use the core app offline
• Keep your personal work record under your control
• No employer dashboard or employee monitoring
• Optional reminders help you confirm shifts and review payday
• Export a closed pay period as CSV, or save a full backup file
FREE AND PRO OPTIONS
Shift tracking, the full pay-period review workflow, CSV export, and full backup and restore are free. PayClose Pro is a one-time purchase that lets you track more than one job in the app and removes advertising. Prices are shown in the app before you buy.
IMPORTANT
PayClose is a personal work-hours tracker and gross-pay estimator. It is not an employer time clock, payroll service, tax calculator, legal service, or official wage statement. Estimates depend on the shifts, rates, breaks, bonuses, and rules you enter. Always check your official timecard, paystub, contract, and applicable workplace rules.
Plan your schedule. Confirm what you worked. Compare what you were paid. Close every pay period with confidence.
Track shifts, estimate gross pay, and compare every paycheck by pay period.
