Day rates that still cover what your team costs
Set charge rates, cost rates and target margins for each role, and let Rofinery suggest a rate from real salaries and overheads.
Rates set years ago
Most agencies set their day rates once and rarely look at them again. Salaries rise, overheads grow, and nobody checks whether the rate still leaves a margin.
Rofinery keeps what you charge and what it costs you side by side, for every role. Both are used every time you price a proposal or report on profit.
What a rate card holds
Everything you need to price with confidence.
Charge rate, cost rate and margin together
Each rate card belongs to a job title and holds a charge-out rate, a cost rate, a contribution rate and the margin you're aiming for, hourly or daily. Cost rate includes overheads. Contribution rate is the salary cost on its own.
A suggested rate from real costs
Rofinery can work out a charge-out rate from salaries and related costs, overheads, UK bank holidays, leave, sick days and breaks, with a breakdown you can apply in one click.
Agreed rates for particular clients
Give a client its own charge rates. Costs still come from your team's rate cards, so the profit figures stay honest.

Questions about rate cards
Cost rate is what an hour costs you, including overheads. Contribution rate is the salary cost on its own, without overheads.
No. A client rate card only changes what you charge. Costs always come from your team's rate cards.
From each person's salary and related costs, your overheads, and the time they're actually available after bank holidays, leave, sick days and breaks.
