BarPlanner on a laptop and a phone: a café’s weekly schedule with shifts per day

Sound familiar?

“Who can do Saturday?”

Twenty messages in the WhatsApp group, and on Friday night you still don’t know who’s working.

The schedule in Excel

You email a file nobody opens, and you track every swap yourself.

Last-minute swaps

Someone finds a replacement without telling you. You find out when the wrong person walks in.

How it works

  1. Phone showing an employee’s availability per shift

    1Your team gives their availability

    Per shift or with a standing rule like “every Friday evening”. They can change it until you publish.

  2. Phone showing the candidate list for a shift

    2You plan and publish

    Pick who works each position, with their own hours inside the shift. Only what’s ready gets published.

  3. Phone showing an employee’s personal schedule

    3Your team knows when they work

    Everyone gets a notification and sees the schedule in the app. Swaps and cancellations are requested in the app.

Your whole schedule in one place

Built for places where students, flexi-jobbers and permanent staff work side by side.

Availability

See who can work each shift. Standing rules fill it in, and exceptions always win.

Shifts by time block

Shifts that run past midnight, individual hours per person and a warning when you’re short-staffed.

Swaps and cancellations

A colleague takes over and you approve. Until then the schedule stays as it was.

Hours per week and month

Planned hours per person, even when a night shift spans two weeks.

Notifications

In the app, by email and as push notifications. Everyone affected by a change hears about it.

Several venues, one login

Someone works at two places? They see both schedules and are never booked twice at once.

Made for hospitality in Belgium

  • Students and flexi-jobbers often work at more than one place. BarPlanner shows when they’re already booked elsewhere, without saying where.
  • Late shifts simply run past midnight, including the nights the clocks change.
  • Your team speaks many languages and picks their own: Dutch, French, English, Polish, Spanish, Turkish, Moroccan Arabic, Russian or Ukrainian.
  • Invoices with VAT and a VAT number for EU reverse charge. Pay with Bancontact, card or direct debit.
