WP Hourly was initially intended for businesses that charge by the hours, like Freelancers and Agencies. However, lot's of customers reached out asking how they can use it for businesses from completely different industries. For example, WP Hourly is used by lawyers, charging by the hour, by companies with multiple employees working from home and need to be monitored and clocked. As a matter of fact, WP Hourly is ideal for any business that needs to have employee timesheets if nothing more.

You would need to have a WordPress website. WP Hourly is a WordPress plugin. If you do not have one, we can help you build it. We are also planning to launch a SaaS version of WP Hourly so that clients that do not have a WordPress website can use it online. There is currently no available ETA for this however.

No, of course; you would have to install WP Hourly first and then purchase any of the PRO add-ons you need.

Not at all. The PRO add-ons are there to help you save and manage your time better. They help eliminating most of the manual tasks, like adding time manually, or generating employee timesheets, etc. By it self, WP Hourly is a very good solution for keeping track of the worked time, generate reports or use that time to invoice your customers.

Yes. WP Hourly allows you to set one global hourly rate. then, you can overwrite that rate for each Client, project or Task.

WP Hourly can be used by single-person businesses as well as bigger companies with employees. As a freelancer, you would be the one doing everything, including tracking the time if you are using the WP Hourly Tracker add-on, where as an Agency, your employees or contractors would be doing that. That means WP Hourly and it's add-ons can be used by WordPress Administrators and Employees (a new user role created by WP Hourly)

In order to do so you need WP Hourly and the WP Hourly WooCommerce Integration add-on. This will hook into the client My Account area and clients will be able to see the unpaid time they owe you. Paying is a s simple as checking out for a new pair of shoes like you would do on any online shop. You are basically selling hours 🙂

Yes. On the WooCommerce order, your client will see a timesheet of projects and tasks along with the time spent on each of them. That time sums up as the total amount paid on that order. Ex. Total of 100h worked * 50 USD / h = 5000 USD order total.

In WP Hourly, billable time (tracked time) is grouped by weeks, in most countries, the week being a unit of measure for payment intervals. Using the WP Hourly WooCommerce Integration add-on allows your clients pay for particular weeks or the full amount due in one go. For obvious reasons, we recommend charging the full due amount in one go, but that is totally up to you and your client.

Of course, you can, however the add-ons that require an active subscription will stop working and you would revert to basic functionality. Updates would stop as well for those plugins.

We offer a 14 day - no questions asked - money back guarantee. That should be enough for you to make sure that our product is or is not what you need for your business setup.
