Rostering software for retail and tourism that staffs the peak, not the whole year
Your busiest weeks arrive on a calendar you already know — summer season, school holidays, cruise days. Publish the peak as a period, let your casual pool bid around their own lives, allocate with standby cover, and know exactly who to invite back next season.
Publish the peak calendar in one pass
Summer trading hours, a school-holiday programme, a run of cruise-ship days — each is a period with its own named positions and fixed capacities, laid out ahead of time instead of stitched together week by week as the season builds.
Staff bid around their own lives
A seasonal or student workforce has its own calendar of commitments. Every worker gets one signed link per period — they see the peak's shifts laid out and bid for the ones that actually fit their week, instead of you guessing at availability or chasing a spreadsheet of preferences by text.
Reliability data tells you who to invite back
A season ends, but the relationship doesn't have to. Every completed period rolls attendance and hours into a reliability score per person, so when next season's peak comes around you already know who to invite back first — and a ranked standby pool with first-claim-wins cover keeps this season's gaps from becoming your problem.
Questions from retail & tourism operators
We only need this for a few peak weeks a year — is that a fit?
Yes. A period is exactly as long as your peak needs it to be, published ahead of the season and completed once it's over, with no ongoing roster to maintain outside that window.
Our team is mostly students and seasonal workers — do they need an app?
No. Every worker gets a unique signed link by SMS or email for the period — they bid, view their roster and self-withdraw from that link. No app, no password.
Can we tell who's worth inviting back for next year's peak?
Yes. Reliability scoring rolls attendance rate and hours fulfilment into a per-person score after every completed period, weighted toward recent periods, so last season's top performers stand out.
How do we cover a gap on a cruise-ship day if someone drops out?
A vacated position opens a claim offer and blasts a one-time link to your ranked standby pool. First valid claim wins the seat automatically — no phoning down a list.
Can different sites or stores run their own peak rosters?
Yes. Each site keeps its own hierarchy, positions and periods, while a contact's bidding history and reliability score travel with them if they work across sites.
