The Monthly Cycle: Key Dates Explained

Outstaffer's monthly billing rhythm aligns to each country's local payroll cycle. Your subscription invoice arrives around the 10th of each month, with the exact date varying by country. The payroll cutoff is the 28th of each month — universal across all countries.

Your subscription bill date by country

Multi-country and multi-business-unit invoicing

If you have employees across multiple countries, you'll receive one consolidated invoice per country by default — most multi-country customers prefer this because employees in different countries often report into different teams or cost centres within their organisation. To switch to one fully consolidated invoice across all countries, message your dedicated HR Manager.

If you have multiple teams within a single country (for example, an engineering team and a design team both based in the Philippines) that need separate invoices, we can do that — just talk to your dedicated HR Manager.

Payment terms and the 28th payroll cutoff

Payment terms remain 14 days from your invoice date regardless of country. The payroll cutoff is the 28th of each month for all countries — your subscription payment must be received by the 28th for us to process the next payroll cycle on time.

What a typical monthly cycle looks like

Here's what happens in a typical month, using March → April as the worked example (a Philippines-based employee, country bill date = 10th):

This rhythm repeats every month. Customers in different countries see the same shape — only the bill date varies.
