1 / 5

Official list prices checked 29 October 2026. USD converted at US$1 = A$1.4217 (RBA, 28 October 2026; A$1 = US$0.7034). FX and card fees may differ.

Tax assumptions & comparison limits

No GST is added to any card or calculator amount. ClockHQ’s price already includes any applicable tax. Deputy and Tanda publish prices that exclude GST, so their actual cost would be higher than shown. Clockify and Homebase tax treatment is not confirmed by their public pricing. Confirm taxes with each supplier before purchasing.

Features differ. This is a list-price comparison, not a quote or a promise of savings. Minimum charges, free plans, annual discounts and add-ons may apply. Tanda is a starting price; Homebase is per location. ClockHQ’s prices for new customers are A$14.95/month or A$119.40/year (A$9.95/month equivalent), including any applicable tax.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Do my staff need to install an app?+

No. They scan the workplace QR code with their phone camera and enter a PIN — that's it. They can optionally add it to their home screen for one-tap access.

Is there a per-employee charge?+

Never. A$14.95/month, or A$119.40/year (A$9.95/month equivalent) — flat, unlimited employees and unlimited clock-ins, including any applicable tax.

Does it work with Reckon?+

Export weekly summaries for payroll preparation. Check the required format with your accountant or payroll provider; direct imports and compatibility vary by system.

What about leave, sick days and breaks?+

Admins can review leave and early-finish requests, manage paid or unpaid public holidays, and choose automatic or clocked lunch breaks.

Is ClockHQ only for Australian businesses?+

ClockHQ is Australian-built and welcomes small teams in Australia and beyond. Plans are priced in AUD. Check your local payroll and employment requirements; ClockHQ does not claim worldwide payroll integrations or compliance.

Can I try it before paying?+

Yes — every account starts with a 14-day free trial. No credit card needed to start.

Can I manage several businesses with one login?+

Yes. Your base plan includes one business with unlimited staff. Add as many separate businesses as you need for A$3/month each, or A$30/year each on an annual plan. Each keeps its own staff, schedules, timesheets and exports. Extras have no free trial: a part-period charge is paid upfront, then everything renews together.

Can my bookkeeper help without sharing my password?+

Yes. Invite your bookkeeper to each business using their own email and login. They can manage staff, schedules, leave, timesheets and exports; your billing and referrals stay private. You can remove access anytime.
