Team & Pay

Add a staff member or contractor

Last updated September 2026 · v1.0

Bring your team into Chester so they can see their visits and get paid. Invite them by email and pick whether they're staff or a contractor.

The short version
  1. Open your Team and invite a member.
  2. Enter their name and email, and pick staff or contractor.
  3. Send - they get an email to join.

On your phone

  1. On the More tab, tap Team (or Settings, then Team).
  2. Tap + Invite, then + Invite Team Member.
  3. Enter their Full Name and Email Address, and choose a Role: staff (full schedule access) or contractor (weekend or contract work).
  4. Tap Send Invite.

On the web

  1. In the left sidebar, open Team.
  2. Click Invite, enter First name, Last name, and Email, choose staff or contractor, and click Send Invite.

Good to know

  • Each team member may add to your bill. On the Team plan there's a per-active-staff charge - Chester shows the amount right on the invite form.
  • New members get an email invite to set up their own account and see their assigned visits.
