Time Card Calculator
Add each day's clock-in and clock-out times to total your daily and weekly hours, with optional pay.
Example
Mon 09:00 to 17:00 = 8.00 h, Tue 09:00 to 17:30 = 8.50 h, Wed 22:00 to 06:00 (overnight) = 8.00 h. Weekly total = 24.50 h. At $20/h, gross pay = $490.00.
How it works
Each day's hours = (clock-out minus clock-in) in minutes, with overnight shifts wrapping past midnight (add 24h if out is before in), then divided by 60. Weekly hours sum all days, and pay = weekly hours x hourly rate.
Good to know
The Time Card Calculator turns a week of clock-in and clock-out times into totaled daily and weekly hours, and optionally into gross pay if you enter an hourly rate. It's built for hourly workers, shift staff, freelancers logging billable time, and small-business owners or managers who need to tally a timesheet quickly without spreadsheet formulas. You fill in two times per day for Monday through Sunday, and the results update instantly as you type.
Reach for it at the end of a pay period when you need to check a paycheck, confirm a timesheet before submitting it, or estimate earnings before a shift schedule is finalized. Because it runs entirely in your browser and keeps nothing on a server, it's also handy when you'd rather not put wage or schedule details into a cloud app.
The output has four parts worth reading together: each day's "Hours" box shows that single shift in decimal hours, the "Weekly total" sums all seven days, "Total minutes" is the raw figure behind the rounding, and "Avg / worked day" divides the week only by days that actually had hours (blank days don't drag the average down). Gross pay simply multiplies weekly hours by your rate and appears only when the rate is above zero. Note that times are in decimal, so 8.50 h means eight hours and thirty minutes, not eight hours and fifty minutes.
One practical caveat: the tool counts the entire span from clock-in to clock-out and does not deduct breaks or lunch, so for an unpaid 30-minute meal you should shorten the clock-out time or split the day into worked segments. Keep these points in mind:
- Enter times in 24-hour format, and for shifts that cross midnight just put the earlier "out" time as-is, the calculator adds the overnight automatically.
- Treat any pay figure as an estimate, since it ignores overtime rules, taxes, and deductions.
Frequently asked questions
How are overnight shifts (past midnight) handled?
If the clock-out time is earlier than the clock-in time, the calculator assumes the shift crossed midnight and adds 24 hours, so a 22:00 to 06:00 shift correctly counts as 8 hours.
Does it subtract unpaid breaks or lunch?
No, it totals the full clock-in to clock-out span. To account for an unpaid break, enter the actual worked times, for example clock back in after lunch as a separate day's pair or shorten the out time accordingly.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No — this calculator runs entirely in your browser. Your inputs never leave your device, and it works offline once loaded.
Is this calculator free?
Yes, completely free with no sign-up and no limits.
People also ask
How do I convert decimal hours back to hours and minutes?
Multiply the decimal part by 60. For example, 8.50 hours is 8 hours plus 0.50 x 60 = 30 minutes, and 8.25 hours is 8 hours and 15 minutes.
Can this time card calculator handle a two-week or biweekly pay period?
It covers a single seven-day week at a time. For a biweekly total you can run two weeks separately and add the two weekly totals together.
Does the calculator figure overtime pay over 40 hours?
No, it multiplies all weekly hours by one flat rate and does not apply any overtime multiplier. You would need to calculate any time-and-a-half or other premium separately.
What's the difference between gross pay and net pay?
Gross pay is total earnings before any deductions, which is what this tool shows. Net pay is what remains after taxes, insurance, retirement, and other withholdings are subtracted.
How do I enter a lunch break or split shift?
Since the tool measures one continuous in-to-out span per day, enter the worked time only by adjusting the clock-out earlier, or put a second segment of the same day on another row to keep the morning and afternoon separate.
Why does the average per day look different from total divided by seven?
The average counts only days that had hours logged, not all seven days. So a week worked over four days divides the weekly total by four, not by seven.
Is a time card calculator accurate enough for payroll?
It gives a reliable arithmetic total of the times you enter, but it does not account for rounding rules, breaks, overtime, or taxes that an employer's payroll system may apply. Treat it as a check rather than the official record.
