Frequently asked questions
How many paychecks in a year if I'm paid biweekly?
26 in a typical year (52 weeks / 2). Because 26 checks don't divide evenly into 12 months, two months each year contain three paychecks instead of two.
Which months have three paychecks?
It depends entirely on your first pay date. Generate the calendar above and your 3-paycheck months are highlighted automatically. Many people treat the “extra” check as a savings or debt-payoff windfall, since two checks already cover the month's bills.
What does the .ics download do?
It generates a standard iCalendar file on your device with all 26 pay dates as all-day events — import it into Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook. Nothing is sent to a server.
Biweekly vs. semi-monthly — what's the difference?
Biweekly = every 14 days: 26 checks, drifting dates, two 3-check months. Semi-monthly = twice a month on fixed dates: exactly 24 checks. This calendar is for biweekly pay.
