Want to try CaterShift but don't have the time to set everything up? We can do it for you — fast and free. Just download our onboarding spreadsheet, enter your team and roles, and then email it back to us along with your latest schedule. Any schedule format works — screenshot, spreadsheet, rota photo… we'll take care of the rest. Your CaterShift account will be fully set up and ready to go.
If you want to set up CaterShift yourself, no worries. Our easy-to-use setup wizard will guide you through five simple steps. For a smaller business, setup can take as little as 30 minutes, and you can switch to the onboarding spreadsheet option at any time.
You'll need Excel, Apple Numbers, or Google Sheets to edit this file. On iPhone or iPad, open it in one of those apps rather than the browser preview because the preview cannot be edited.
Completed spreadsheet? Email it and your schedule to: support@catershift.com
If you'd rather not use Excel at all, that's completely fine. You can simply send us your latest rota and a few basic details and we'll do the setup directly in CaterShift for you.
