Hourvy vs When I Work: no seat increments, no add-on stacking

Zero base fees, zero minimums. If you have 4 active workers this month, your bill is exactly $4. If you have 1 active worker, your bill is $1. We don't charge setup fees, admin fees, or cancellation fees.

An active worker is anyone whose profile is set to Active for any part of your monthly billing cycle. Whether they're active for 1 day or all 30, the cost is a flat $1 for that entire month — it's based on their active status, not how many shifts they logged. The only way to avoid the charge for a given month is to set them Inactive before that billing cycle starts and leave them inactive for the whole month.

To skip payment for a worker who won't be working at all during a given month, simply set their profile status to "Inactive" before the billing cycle starts. As long as they remain inactive for the entire month, you will not be charged for them. You can reactivate them with one click when they return.

No. Hourvy is billed to your business only, at $1 per active worker per month. Workers use it for free, always.

Because we don't require a credit card to start your trial, you will never be charged automatically. Near the end of your 30 days, we'll remind you to add a payment method if you want to keep using Hourvy. If you decide it's not for you, your account simply pauses — no cancellation calls needed.

Hourvy works seamlessly on any modern smartphone (iOS or Android) or web browser. It's lightweight, fast, and requires no training or complex passwords — your team can clock in on day one in under a minute.

No. While most teams prefer letting workers clock in from their own phones, you or a manager can easily log or edit hours manually from your dashboard. It adapts completely to how your team operates.

Hourvy logs the exact time and status of every punch. As a manager, you have full visibility into live shift activity on your dashboard, and you must approve all shifts before payday — giving you complete control over your labor costs.

Yes, absolutely. Managers and owners can easily edit start times, end times, or break durations with a couple of clicks if someone forgets to clock out during a rush.

No. Hourvy tracks hours, calculates overtime, and logs payment status — you still pay your workers however you already do (cash, direct transfer, or check), then mark it as paid in Hourvy to keep balances accurate.

Yes, every pay period can be downloaded as a clean PDF or CSV with one click, formatted perfectly for bookkeepers or tax records.
