Features
Configure pay rules that fit your business
Set your rates, penalties, allowances, and overtime once, then let Shiftly apply them automatically to every shift, timesheet, and pay run.
Start from modern award rules
Pick from our library of pre-configured Australian Modern Awards and Shiftly loads the base rates, penalties, and classifications for you.
Tailor rates to your business
Layer your own wages, position modifiers, and custom allowances on top of the award. Pay above-award where you need to, keep compliance where you don't.
Apply them automatically
Every shift is costed using the right rate for the right person - weekday, weekend, public holiday, or overtime - so your roster and your pay run always agree.
Your team, your rules
One setup, every pay run sorted
Shiftly's pay rules sit at the heart of your roster. Once your pay rules are configured, every shift already knows has breaks configured and a total shift cost.
Pre-loaded modern award templates
Customisable pay rules
Position-based rules and rates
Different roles, different rules, one roster
Your bartender, your chef, and your floor manager might not have the same pay rules, and in Shiftly, they they don’t have to . Assign each team member a position and a classification level, and their wage, penalties, allowances and overtime rules follow them from shift to shift.Configure it once, and never have to worry about it again.
Position rate modifiers
Award classification levels and rules
Position-applied allowances
Age-based rate recalculations
Customise what you need
From penalties to loadings to allowances
Shiftly's award plugins cover the full shape of a modern award, not just the base rate. Configure yours once and every edge case is handled:
Weekend and public holiday penalties
Early morning and late night loadings
Overtime thresholds (daily, weekly, and per-shift)
Meal break deductions and unpaid break rules
Allowances (laundry, travel, split-shift, tool)
Casual loadings and minimum engagement periods
See the change before you save it
Preview your new rules against a trial shift
Tweaking a penalty rate or adding a custom allowance shouldn't be a leap of faith. Shiftly's preview tab lets you build a sample shift including classifications, employment basis, base rate, date, start and end times, and instantly see how it would be costed. Your changes sit side-by-side with the baseline award.
