Rostering and clock-ins, built for your venues.
Shiftstart gives registered clubs and hospitality businesses one web app to build multi-venue rosters, manage availability and leave, run browser-based QR clock-ins, watch labour costs as you roster, and export to Xero.
Everything in one place
One app for the whole shift lifecycle
From building next week's roster to exporting timesheets to payroll — without spreadsheets, group chats, or a separate clock-in machine.
Multi-venue rostering
Build and publish rosters across every venue and sub-location from a single drag-and-drop grid. Double-bookings and rest-break clashes are caught as you go.
Employee availability
Staff set when they can work from their phone browser. You roster against real availability instead of guessing — and they can apply for open shifts.
Leave management
Annual and personal leave requests, balances, and approvals in one place — with blackout dates and coverage warnings so you never approve into a hole.
Browser QR + GPS clock-in
Staff clock in from any phone browser by scanning the venue QR code, with a location check — no app to install and no shared PIN pad to share around.
Live labour-cost estimates
See the estimated base wage cost update as you build the roster, so you spot overspend before you publish — not after the pay run.
Base rate × hours. Excludes penalties & loadings.
Xero payroll export
Connect Xero, import your people, and export approved timesheets as draft pay runs — one-directional and reviewed by you before anything is sent.
How it works
Up and running in three steps
Shiftstart is invite-only — we set your club up, and your team is invited in. No open sign-ups, no stray accounts.
- 1
We set you up
We onboard your club, venues and sub-locations, then you invite your admins and managers to take it from there.
- 2
Your team gets invited
Staff accept an invite, set their availability, and they're on the roster — each person verified, no shared logins.

Roster, clock in, export
Publish rosters, staff clock in by QR, you watch labour costs in real time and export approved hours to Xero.
