Questions owners ask first
What is PeopleBridge?
PeopleBridge is an all-in-one workforce platform for small businesses — scheduling, GPS time clock, onboarding, PTO, payroll exports, and an AI assistant — built by the PeopleBridge product and engineering team. It's free forever for 1 location and up to 10 employees; Team is $29 a month for your first location and 30 employees; Pro is $2 per employee plus $10 per location per month.
How much does PeopleBridge cost?
Free is $0 forever for 1 location and up to 10 employees, with the core features — an 8-person single-location team pays nothing. Team is $29 a month and includes your first location and 30 employees (+$10 per extra location, +$1 per employee past 30) with the kiosk, breaks, messaging, conflict checks and hours exports — a 25-person single-location team pays $29/mo. Pro is $2 per employee plus $10 per location per month and unlocks every feature, including POS integrations, tip pool, payroll exports, reports and AI — the same 25-person team pays $60/mo. Monthly billing, no annual contract.
Does PeopleBridge integrate with Toast?
Yes. PeopleBridge integrates with Toast, pulling sales, tips, and labor-cost data into one view. Square and Clover are built in too. All three POS integrations are included free with Pro. Don't see your POS? Our engineering team will build a custom integration for your store with dedicated 1-on-1 onboarding for a flat $199.
How is PeopleBridge different from Homebase?
PeopleBridge was designed with multi-location operators who outgrew Homebase. It includes GPS-verified clock-ins, a Toast tip-pool calculator that reconciles to the penny, multi-location float scheduling, and an AI assistant — with a Free plan for small teams and one simple Pro price instead of stacked add-ons.
Can employees clock in from their phones?
Yes. Employees clock in from the mobile app with per-location GPS geofencing and optional photo verification, so early or off-site punches are caught automatically. A tablet kiosk with PIN clock-in is available on Pro.
Is there a contract or setup fee?
No. No contracts, no setup fees, cancel anytime. The Free plan needs no card. Pro is billed monthly, never more than a month ahead.
