Skip to how it works

Built for agencies that fill shifts every week

Fill your shifts with a text message.

Post a shift. Your ready-to-work staff get a text. The first to say yes gets it. No app to install, and no ringing round.

  • No credit card needed
  • Set up in minutes
  • Workers install nothing

Picture: a worker's phone showing a text message offering a shift with an Accept button, and a notice to the agency that the shift has been filled.

  1. 1

    Post a shift

    Where, when, pay

  2. 2

    Workers get a text

    Only people who are ready

  3. 3

    First to accept gets it

    Then check in, approve, done

How it works

Three steps. That's the whole thing.

  1. 1

    Post a shift

    Say where, when and what it pays. It takes about a minute.

  2. 2

    Workers get a text

    Everyone who's ready gets a link. The first person to tap Accept gets the shift.

  3. 3

    Approve and get paid

    They check in when they arrive. You approve the hours and download them for payroll and invoices.

Less chasing. Fewer mistakes.

No more ringing round, group chats, expired tickets or timesheet spreadsheets.

  • Workers install nothing

    They tap a link in a text message. No app, no password, no learning curve. Big buttons and plain words.

  • Only compliant people get booked

    A worker can only be texted or chosen when all their documents (First Aid, White Card and so on) are approved and in date.

  • Proof they turned up

    Workers check in from their phone, and it only works within 200 metres of the address.

  • Hours sorted in one place

    See who worked when, approve the hours, and take care of the rest with two downloads.

  • Ready for payroll and invoices

    Download a payroll file for Xero and a summary to bill each client. Approved hours only.

  • You stay in control

    See exactly who will be texted before you send. Prefer to pick someone yourself? Choose a worker in one tap.

Questions people ask

Do my workers need to install an app?

No. They get a text message with a link. Tapping it opens the shift in their phone's browser, with nothing to download and no password.

What if two people try to accept the same shift?

The first person to tap Accept gets it. Anyone who tries afterwards is told, politely, that it's already been taken.

How do I know they actually turned up?

To check in, a worker's phone shares its location once and it has to be within 200 metres of the shift's address. You see their arrival and finish times when you approve the hours.

What about First Aid, White Cards and other documents?

You upload each worker's documents and approve them. A worker with a missing, unapproved or expired document can't be texted about a shift or chosen for one, so you don't book someone who isn't allowed to work.

Does ShiftMatch pay my workers?

No. It gets the hours right. When you've approved the hours you download a payroll file for Xero Payroll and a summary to invoice each client. You pay people the way you do today.

Is our information private?

Yes. Each agency's workers, documents and shifts are kept completely separate from everyone else's, and documents are stored privately.

Is it only for Australia?

It's built for Australian agencies: Australian mobile numbers, dollars, and Sydney-style dates and times.
