Enable pay runs and set your pay period
In this guide, you’ll learn how to enable pay runs for team members and choose how often your team is paid by setting up pay periods.
How pay runs pay periods works
Once pay runs are enabled, Fresha automatically calculates your team’s pay based on their earnings. You can choose whether to pay team members through their personal Fresha wallet, bank account, or record payments as manual.
Pay runs are grouped into pay periods, which you can schedule to match your pay out cycle. Each pay run includes all tracked earnings and deductions for that period, ready to pay out from your business wallet.

If a team member works at two locations you will see a pay run entry for each location that they work at. You can change your pay period anytime; changes won't affect previous periods, and the new schedule will take effect after the current period ends.
