What you can do in Helperpay on the web
Who is still owed this month
The home screen opens on the one number that matters — what is left to pay this month, and which helper it belongs to, with a Pay button beside each name.
Salary, advance, bonus, deduction
Four entry types with the right maths behind them: an advance is a loan and never counts as pay, a deduction comes off, and every entry carries a date and a note.
Advances that settle themselves
When you log the next salary you say how much of it settles the outstanding advance, and the balance comes down — so nobody argues about what is left.
Leave calendar you tap
Mark sick, casual, public holiday or unpaid on any day. Monthly and yearly tallies update on their own, and public holidays are counted apart so they never read as absence.
Yearly summary for bonus season
Salary, bonuses, deductions, net paid, advances outstanding, leave taken, a month-by-month chart and a pro-rated thirteenth-month suggestion you can log with one tap.
Your currency, exportable
USD, SGD, HKD, AED, INR, MYR, PHP or GBP; export the ledger and the leave days as CSV, or the whole thing as a JSON backup.

Try it with sample data: Loads a three-helper household — Maria the maid on 600 a month with an old medical advance, Ravi the driver with a festival advance and a small deduction, and Priya the cook already paid this month — with six months of ledger entries and twelve marked leave days. You can start fresh at any time.
