Your leave calculations are probably wrong
If your HR software was built for Australian payroll rules, it's calculating NZ leave incorrectly for variable-hours staff. Most business owners don't find out until an employee disputes a payout — or worse, an audit.
We've been solving this for a decade
Built by the team behind PayHero's compliance engine, Crewbase exists because NZ businesses deserve software that calculates leave the way the Holidays Act actually requires.
Leave in weeks, not hours
The Holidays Act calculates leave in weeks. Crewbase does too — unlike platforms that convert from hours and get it wrong.
OWD and ADP, automated
Otherwise working days and average daily pay — calculated automatically across rolling 52-week periods.
Xero-native
Bi-directional sync means your leave balances match your accounting records without manual reconciliation.
Getting compliant takes less time than your next payroll run
Connect your Xero payroll
Link your Xero account and Crewbase imports your employee data and pay history automatically.
Review your leave balances

Run payroll with confidence
From your next pay run, leave accruals, public holiday pay, and payouts are calculated correctly — automatically.

The Holidays Act doesn't give out warnings
Penalties up to $20,000 per breach. 227,000+ NZ employees have already received back payments totalling $237M+. The median remediation cost is growing every year.
