Your earnings give you a running estimate of what you’ve made — based on your approved hours and your pay rate — without waiting for payday.
Your earnings appear as a card on your dashboard and as period totals on your timesheet. They’re shown only if your employer chooses to share pay information with you.
Dashboard with the earnings summary card

What the earnings view shows

  • Current pay period — your regular pay, overtime pay, and total for the period in progress.
  • Year-to-date (YTD) — everything you’ve earned since the start of the year.
  • Pending — hours that are still waiting for approval, with an estimated value if they’re approved.
  • Last pay date — when your most recent pay period was paid.

​
How earnings are calculated

PayPunch multiplies your approved hours by your pay rate:
  • Regular pay = regular hours × your pay rate.
  • Overtime pay = overtime hours × your pay rate × your overtime multiplier (often 1.5×, set by your employer).
Only approved and exported hours count toward your earnings and YTD totals. Pending hours are shown separately as an estimate, and rejected hours aren’t counted at all until they’re corrected and approved.
Your numbers look low? Check your timesheet for Pending or Rejected entries — approving (or correcting) those will update your earnings.
