What It Is

Time Wizard is a cloud-based web platform designed for recruitment agencies, covering scheduling, timesheets, client invoicing, and contractor payments across the contractor workflow. The website highlights that it is built by the Recruit Wizard team and targets recruitment agencies in the ANZ region, especially those handling contractors, temp staffing, and multi-client, multi-site operations.

Core Features and Integrations

The platform consists of four modules: Rostering, Timesheeting, Invoicing, and Payroll. Rostering supports drag-and-drop scheduling, real-time availability, qualification and conflict checks, and shift notifications via SMS and email. The timesheet module lets contractors submit hours through a mobile-friendly web page, enables managers to approve with one click, and automatically flags anomalies and overtime. The invoicing module can convert approved timesheets directly into client invoices, automatically applying rates, margins, and additional costs. The payment module supports generating contractor pay runs from approved hours and keeps an audit trail from shift through to payment.

Pricing and Trial

The website does not disclose plans, unit pricing, billing methods, or payment options. The product is currently in a coming soon / early access stage, and users can apply for early access. For buyers, pricing, contract terms, implementation fees, and ongoing support costs will need to be confirmed through a demo or direct discussion at this stage.

Security, Deployment, and Permissions

Time Wizard is a cloud-based web platform and does not require local installation. On the security side, it discloses encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access control, SSO options, and daily backups. For collaboration, it supports configurable approval workflows and manager approvals. However, its current payroll capability is mainly aimed at sub-contractors and does not handle employee or temp payroll, so it does not yet offer STP2, PAYG, or award interpretation capabilities.

Pros, Cons, and Best Fit

Its main strength is its strong fit for the recruitment industry. It can sync customer, job, placement, and worker data from Recruit Wizard and send approved timesheets back, while also supporting Xero accounting sync to reduce duplicate data entry. The drawbacks are that the product is still at an early stage, with pricing, API availability, self-hosting, broader accounting integrations, and full employee payroll capabilities not yet clearly defined. It is best suited to recruitment agencies already using Recruit Wizard and heavily relying on contractor scheduling and invoicing.

Access from China

The website does not provide information on mainland China access, RMB payments, or localization, and network availability is unknown. Teams using it from China should test access stability, SMS and email deliverability, Xero/Recruit Wizard availability, and compliance requirements in advance. Domestic alternatives worth watching include Beisen, Moka, as well as scheduling, attendance, and approval solutions within the DingTalk and WeCom ecosystems.
