Everything you need to manage the people who work for you
Payslips, leave, schedules and attendance — the admin of managing your staff, handled in one calm place.
Payslips with the details that matter
A proper payslip in your staff's hands every payday.
However you pay someone, the payslip lists their earnings, overtime, itemised deductions, UIF and net pay — calculated from their rate and hours, so the figures match the work.

Balances accrue and update the moment leave is taken or approved — for you and your staff. No spreadsheets, no manual tallies, no awkward end-of-year guesswork.

Staff Schedule
Jun 8 – Jun 14, 2026
One app, however many places you run
The same calm place to manage the people who work for you — pay, schedules, leave and payslips, all kept straight. Built for South African households, small teams and multi-property owners alike.
For more than one place
Your Airbnbs, rentals or second site
Run every property from one app instead of a WhatsApp group each. Add a place, put the right staff at each one, and every message and clock-in tells you which property it came from — even when you're in another country.
- Every property in one account
- The right staff at the right place
- Messages tagged with where they're from
For small teams
Your café, salon, guesthouse or crew
Pay a mixed team — a monthly manager, hourly and per-shift staff — from one place. Payslips, leave and schedules sorted, with tidy records you can pull up whenever your accountant or bank asks. No payroll bureau required.
- Monthly, hourly & per-shift pay in one team
- Payslips, leave and shifts together
- Tidy records, ready when you need them
At home
Your nanny, gardener or helper
The easy way to look after the people who work in your home — a real payslip every payday, leave that tracks itself and UIF worked out for you. A tidier way to handle what you already do by EFT, and everyone gets their own app.
- A proper payslip every payday
- Leave and UIF handled for you
- Each person gets their own login
Two sides, one app
You manage; your staff stay in the loop. Same source of truth, a view built for each.
Run the whole thing from one place
Pay everyone — monthly, hourly, per shift or per contract — approve leave and overtime, and see schedules and payslips in one view. No bookkeeper required.
- Pay monthly, hourly, per shift or per contract
- Approve leave and overtime in a tap
- Schedules, leave and pay in one view

Payslips with the details that matter
Each payday, produce a payslip showing earnings — monthly, hourly, per shift or per contract — plus overtime, itemised deductions, UIF and net pay, all calculated for you.
Leave that keeps its own score
Annual leave accrues automatically and shows a live balance, so you and your staff always know where things stand — no manual tallies.
Schedules & attendance, sorted
Plan shifts, log work days and keep an accurate record of exactly who worked when — the foundation every payslip is built on.
Overtime & changes, with sign-off
Capture overtime and shift changes through a simple approval flow, so what you pay always matches what actually happened.
Pay them the way you pay them
Set each person as monthly, hourly, per shift or contract — Homebird works out every payday from their rate and hours, so the maths matches how you actually pay.
A record you can stand behind
Every payroll-affecting change is logged automatically, so there's a clear history when anyone has a question.
Up and running in an afternoon
No setup project, no consultant. Three steps and you're done.
Add the people you employ
Set their pay, work days and leave in a couple of minutes.
They get their own login
Staff see their schedule, request leave and collect payslips themselves.
Stay in sync, every month
Payslips, leave and attendance keep themselves current. You review and approve.
