Is HelloTime actually free, or is it a trial?
It's a permanent free plan, not a trial — no credit card to sign up, and no expiry date. It's scoped to 1 user; if you need a second person on the account, that's a paid seat.
Free Plan
Clock in and out, track leave, and use the mobile and web apps — free forever, no credit card, no time limit. It's scoped to one person: if you're hiring a team, see what paid plans add below.
No feature is time-limited or hidden behind a trial countdown — but the Free plan is genuinely smaller than our paid plans, and we'd rather say so here than have you find out after signing up.
Be honest with yourself here: Clockify gives unlimited free users and Toggl Track covers up to 5 free — both are worth a look if a free plan for your whole team matters more than anything else. HelloTime's free plan is for one person; our paid plans (from $3.99/user, ₹99 in India) add more seats, attendance hardware options, desktop productivity tracking, and payroll — the things a growing team usually asks for next.
It's a permanent free plan, not a trial — no credit card to sign up, and no expiry date. It's scoped to 1 user; if you need a second person on the account, that's a paid seat.
Clock in and out manually, basic leave and shift tracking, and the mobile + web apps — for 1 user, with community support. Clockify and Toggl offer free tiers with more free seats, but HelloTime's free plan does not include face-recognition/GPS clock-in, desktop productivity tracking, or payroll — those are paid-plan features.
HelloTime Free is built for one person tracking their own time — a freelancer, solo operator, or someone trying the product before adding a team. If you're hiring or already have more than one employee, Clockify (unlimited free users) or Toggl Track (up to 5 free users) may cover a small team for longer without paying; HelloTime's own paid plans start at $3.99/user (₹99 in India) and add attendance, productivity tracking and payroll on top.
No. Sign up with an email — no card required for the Free plan, and nothing is ever charged automatically. Paid plans include a free trial before you're asked to pay.
A second user is a paid seat — HelloTime's Free plan is scoped to one person. Upgrade to Attend, Track or Business to add more people.
Free forever for 1 user. No credit card. Paid from $3.99/seat, billed monthly.
