Three pay modes for any cleaning business

Different cleaning companies pay their teams differently. RouteCleanly supports three models so you can match the one that fits how your business already works.

Pay Rates

Per Job

Set pay rates by cleaning type (standard, deep clean, move-out) and crew size. RouteCleanly calculates each cleaner's pay the moment a job is assigned. Add a flat driver bonus for employees who drive.

Hourly

Hourly

Pay cleaners based on hours worked. RouteCleanly pulls clock-in and clock-out logs from the app to calculate hours. If no log exists, it falls back to the job's scheduled time window.

Fixed Salary

Fixed Weekly

Pay cleaners a fixed amount per week regardless of job count. Useful for salaried employees or team leads with consistent workloads.
