Wagestream

Recently started work 12 hours per week at the weekend. I like the idea of wagestream so I can see my money coming in and keep track of it. Especially as my wages don't come in until the end of the month.

However, it seems to divide my earnings by 7 and spread them over the week. Why does it do this ?

For example I do 6 hours Saturday,  6 hours Sunday.
But it shows roughly £17 per day even though I only work two days.

    Because that's how it's set up. Have a look at their website for full info: https://wagestream.com/employees/#why-employees
