Empowering Shift Workers with Transparent Pay Data
We believe every hour you work should be paid correctly. ShiftPayCal is dedicated to bringing clarity to complex payroll calculations.
The Payroll Problem
Calculating your paycheck shouldn't require an accounting degree. Yet, for millions of shift workers—nurses working graveyard shifts, warehouse staff pulling holiday overtime, and manufacturing teams on rotating schedules—understanding a pay stub is incredibly frustrating.
Employers frequently make mistakes. The biggest issue? Overtime calculation on differential pay. Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), overtime must be calculated using a blended "regular rate" that includes your shift differentials. Many payroll systems incorrectly use the base rate, costing workers thousands of dollars in unpaid wages every year.

ShiftPayCal was created to level the playing field. Our mission is simple: to provide a fast, accurate, and completely free tool that helps you verify your paycheck before payday.
