How many days until my next payday?
Enter a pay schedule above to see your next scheduled date and live countdown. Weekly, every two weeks, twice monthly, monthly and one-time dates are supported. Preview your next 12 dates and export them to a local .ics calendar file.
Your pay frequency matters: biweekly means every 14 days, while twice a month means two calendar dates and is not the same schedule. Choose twice monthly to set two calendar dates, such as the 15th and last day of each month. All schedules use your local calendar; the optional .ics export creates all-day reminders, not predicted bank-deposit times.
Select the correct frequency
For weekly pay, pick the weekday. For biweekly pay, enter a known payday as the 14-day starting point. For twice-monthly pay, choose an early day and a later day or month-end. For monthly pay, choose a day or the end of the month.
Check the next expected pay date
The timer calculates the next scheduled date from your inputs. Confirm the result against your employer’s actual payroll calendar.
Make a small plan
Use the date to organise upcoming bills and expenses, without assuming the bank deposit will arrive at the displayed hour.
Example: Friday, January 2, 2026
If January 2, 2026 is a reference payday on a 14-day cycle, the next scheduled payday is January 16, 2026; then January 30. A regular biweekly schedule generally gives 26 paydays in 52 weeks, with some calendar years containing 27 pay dates depending on alignment.
Important: this is a schedule estimate, not a bank deposit forecast. The countdown uses an illustrative time of 5:00 PM for scheduled pay dates. Public holidays, employer cutoff rules and weekends are NOT automatically adjusted. Check your payroll provider for the actual arrival date and time.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between biweekly and semimonthly pay?
Biweekly means once every 14 days. Semimonthly means twice in each calendar month, typically 24 pay dates per year. Choose the twice-monthly option and set two distinct dates, such as the 15th and last day of each month.
What happens when payday is on a bank holiday?
The tool does not have a holiday or banking calendar. Your employer may pay early, late or on the scheduled date; confirm with payroll.
Does the countdown see my bank balance?
No. It only calculates a date from the schedule you enter. No bank connection is needed.
