Features

Everything a hospitality week needs.

From the first shift to the final pay statement — scheduling, attendance, tips and payroll in one place, and correct for Ontario.

Scheduling

Build the week in minutes

A clean weekly grid, drag-free. Copy last week to start, get demand hints from your own history, and publish so staff see their shifts instantly on their phones.

  • Copy last week's shifts
  • Cover suggestions ranked by reliability & hours
  • Assign shifts to a group and a position
  • Publish sends in-language notifications
Attendance

Offline NFC check-in that just works

Staff tap a tag to clock in and out. It keeps working when the back-of-house Wi-Fi drops and syncs automatically once you're back online — with guards against buddy-punching and clock drift.

  • Works fully offline, syncs later
  • HMAC-signed tags, device-bound
  • Idempotent — retries never double-count
  • Manual fallback code when NFC isn't available
Tips

Capture every tip at the end of the shift

Staff log tips themselves the moment the shift ends: card (with the last 4 from the receipt) or a room charge, in CAD or USD. Hotels and resorts get room-charge fields; everyone else doesn't see them.

  • Visa / Mastercard / Debit / Room / Cash
  • Last-4 from the receipt for card tips
  • Room #, guest & departure for room charges
  • USD or CAD, kept exactly as received
Payroll

A pay statement that's correct for Ontario & the CRA

Tracked hours and controlled tips become an ESA-compliant, CRA-correct pay statement. The engine reproduces the CRA's own calculator to the cent before a stub is ever marked official.

  • ESA overtime, holiday & vacation pay
  • CRA T4127: CPP, CPP2, EI, income tax
  • Controlled vs. direct tips handled correctly
  • ESA pay-statement PDF, records retained
Teams

Groups, positions & the right manager

Organize staff into departments — bar, servers, housekeeping, or anything you name. Add positions inside each, and assign a manager who can schedule only their group.

  • Custom groups with members & managers
  • Positions (sub-roles) shown on each shift
  • Managers scoped to the groups they run
  • Owners keep full venue-wide control
Languages

Everyone in their own language

The manager portal and every staff-facing message adapt to each person's choice: English, Spanish, Mandarin, Japanese or Korean.

  • Per-employee language
  • Shifts, reminders & alerts translated
  • Pay statements in-language
  • Nothing hardcoded to English
Cash flow

Early wage access, done safely

Let staff request wages they've already earned before payday. You pay them directly — no money flows through Gastro — and it's recouped automatically on the next stub, within ESA limits.

  • Request against earned-unpaid hours
  • You pay directly (e-Transfer or cash)
  • Auto-recouped, idempotently, next payroll
  • Full audit trail both directions
