Built for Australian shops
Clock in. Roster. Pay.
One app.
Staff clock in from their phone. You roster, approve, and send hours to Xero. Award pay rules stay current from Fair Work — you never look them up again.
The shops that run on Dowoomi every day
Clock in
Staff clock in from their own phone.
No kiosk, no tablet by the door. Each person taps in on their phone; you see who is on shift right now, from anywhere.
- On-device geofenceProThe phone checks it is inside your shop's radius before the button works. The location itself never leaves the phone — we don't store it.Pro
- Multiple clock-ins a daySplit shifts, breaks, a run to the bank. Every in and out is a separate record, so timesheets add up exactly.
- Guest workers, no account neededA trial hire or a one-day casual can clock in from a link for two weeks. Add them as staff later, or let them drop off. Guests are never billed.
- Live 'who's in' boardOwners and managers see current clock-ins per shop, updated the moment someone taps.
Roster
Build the week in minutes, publish once.
Drag shifts onto the week by work area. Publish, and every staff member gets a push notification with their shifts. Cost shows before you commit.
- Drag-and-drop weekly rosterProRosters per shop and work area. Copy last week, adjust, done. Owners and managers can build it from the app too.Pro
- Wage cost as you buildProThe roster shows what the week will cost using each person's rate and the award rules — before you publish.Pro
- Availability and leave in one viewProStaff set when they can work and request leave in the app. The roster warns you before you put someone on a shift they said they cannot do.Pro
- Legal hour caps respectedProA student visa's fortnightly cap, or a weekly or fortnightly limit you set per person. The roster warns you when a shift would push them over.Pro
- Shift cover requestsProStaff who cannot make a shift ask colleagues from the app. The first to accept takes it, and the roster updates. You can require your approval first.Pro
Pay
Hours in, Xero out.
Timesheets build themselves from clock-ins. Award rules turn hours into the right rates. One click sends approved hours to Xero Payroll — you run pay there as usual.
- Australian award pay rulesProPenalty rates, overtime, casual loading and allowances from the modern award that applies to you. When Fair Work varies the award, the pay rules update and you are told.Pro
- Timesheets and PDF exportWeekly or any period, per person or per shop. Free plan includes PDF; Pro can email them.
- Xero payroll integrationProApproved hours arrive in Xero as draft timesheets, mapped to the right earnings rates. You approve and run pay in Xero. Payslips and STP stay in Xero.Pro
- Organisation viewProPeople, leave, compliance, pay run, timesheets and reports across every shop you own, in one place.Pro
InventoryA count and a status (enough, running low, low, out of stock) for every item, per shop. Staff update both from the app.
Tip poolingRecord the day's tips and split the pool among the people who worked it, three ways: by hours worked, equally, or by points. Points are 1 to 5 per person (0 means no tips), times hours worked, with a shop default you can change for one day. Pick any period and get one figure per person.
ChecklistsProMorning, close or any routine you repeat, for the whole shop, a work area or named people. Staff tick items off in the app and you see who did what.

How it works
Set up Dowoomi in three steps.
1
Create your shop
Sign up, name your shop, set the address. Two minutes, no card.
2
Invite your team
Send the app link. Staff sign in, you approve them once, they can clock in.
3
Roster, approve, send
Publish the week, approve the timesheets, send to Xero. Free for a team of five; Pro when you grow.
Pricing
Pay for who works.
Free while your shop is small. Pro counts only the people who clocked in or were rostered that month. Someone who did neither costs you nothing.
Pro is billed monthly for the month just finished, from what your team actually did. Nobody rostered, nobody clocked in, nothing to pay.
Pro
$5
per active employee, per month
Every feature, per company. Includes AI Voicemail for every shop, free for 6 months. No minimum, no lock-in. 30 days free, cancel anytime before it ends.

Prices in AUD, excluding GST. An active employee is someone who clocked in or was on a published roster at least once in the month. Owners and managers who only administer the account are never counted.
From a customer
Dowoomi has totally changed the way we run things. Tracking attendance across different areas is super easy, and the timesheet reports are detailed but simple to get. The team loves how quick the clock-ins are, and I love having real-time insights into what's happening. Honestly, it paid for itself in the first month.
Your team's next shift, sorted.
Free for one shop and five staff. Pro is $5 per active employee a month when you outgrow it, with AI Voicemail free for 6 months.
