The problems FlexiWork solves for retail.

Running a retail business should not mean scrambling for staff every Black Friday or bank holiday weekend.

Seasonal peaks with no scalable system

Christmas, summer sales, bank holiday weekends — your staffing doubles at exactly the point when you have the least time to manage it manually.

Part-timers and casuals in separate systems

Your permanent part-time team on one spreadsheet, your seasonal and casual staff on WhatsApp. Nothing integrated, nothing visible all at once.

Sunday and bank holiday scheduling chaos

Different pay rules, different availability — and the people you need most are often the ones with the most complicated schedules around public holidays.

No-shows on opening shifts

A no-show on a key trading day is not just a staffing problem — it is a compliance risk if you cannot meet minimum staffing for trading standards or security on the floor.

Holiday pay exposure for casual staff

Most retailers with casual staff still use the now-unlawful 12.07% uplift method. If you are, you have underpayment liability and no records to defend against a tribunal claim.

ERA 2025 records you do not have

From 2027, seasonal and zero-hours workers who work consistent patterns are entitled to be offered guaranteed hours. Without 12-week actual hours records, you cannot manage this — or defend it.

Built for the way retail actually works.

Variable hours, seasonal staff, multiple sites, and the compliance changes coming in 2026 and 2027 — handled out of the box.

Rota

Build and publish in minutes

Drag-and-drop scheduling across roles, sites and worker types. Staff get notified instantly and confirm from their phone. Permanent, casual and seasonal in one view.

Rota

Scale up without cost penalties

Add Christmas casuals and summer seasonal staff without a subscription change. Pay by total team size, not per user — your costs do not scale with peak hiring.

Rota

Multi-site visibility

Run separate rotas per store with a unified view across the chain. Staff transfer between sites without rebuilding profiles. Unlimited venues on every plan.

Wages

Holiday pay records, automatic

Statutory holiday pay accrued and paid correctly for every worker, with full records maintained — the April 2026 requirement, included on every plan.

Agency

Peak cover without the markup

Post uncovered shifts to a network of verified UK workers. Build a reliable casual pool for peak periods. Pay 15% instead of the 25–35% your agency charges.

ERA 2025

Compliance records built in

Every shift contributes to each worker's rolling 12-week record. Tribunal-ready data from day one. No add-on required — included on every plan.

Holiday pay law changed in April 2026 — and 2027 is closer than it looks

The 12.07% rolled-up method is no longer compliant for casuals. FlexiWork tracks accrual and payment automatically. Learn more about holiday pay rules →

Questions, answered.

What is the best rota software for UK retail? +
The right software for UK retail handles variable hours, seasonal headcount swings and a mix of permanent part-time and casual staff in one rota. FlexiWork is built specifically for UK shift-based businesses, with ERA 2025 compliance, automatic holiday pay records and flat-fee pricing from £24.50 per month with no per-user fees.
How much does retail rota software cost? +
Most retail platforms charge per user per month, which scales painfully through Christmas and summer peak hiring. FlexiWork charges a flat fee: from £24.50 per month for up to 15 workers, £45.50 for up to 50, and £77 for up to 150. Annual billing gets an extra 20% off. Unlimited venues included on every plan.
Does it help with holiday pay compliance? +
Yes. From April 2026, statutory holiday pay records are a legal requirement and the 12.07% rolled-up uplift method is no longer compliant for casuals. FlexiWork maintains holiday accrual and payment records automatically for every worker — included on every plan, no add-on required.
Does it handle seasonal peaks without scaling costs? +
Yes. FlexiWork is priced by total team size, not by user. You can add casual and seasonal staff during peak periods without your subscription cost changing — there are no per-user fees on any plan. Unlimited venues are included too.
How long is the free trial? +
Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. No credit card is required. After the trial you choose monthly (30% off for 3 months) or annual billing (20% off all year). Cancel any time — no contracts, no lock-in.
How quickly can my team be onboarded? +
Most retail teams are fully set up and using FlexiWork within 48 hours. The worker-facing interface is intentionally simple — if your team uses WhatsApp, they can use FlexiWork. Onboarding support is included on every plan.
