Convert your pay between yearly, monthly, weekly, daily and hourly, and estimate take-home pay, instantly and privately in your browser.

This salary calculator converts a wage between every common pay period, so you can instantly see what a yearly salary works out to per month, week, day or hour, and the other way around. Enter any amount, tell it which period that amount represents, and it fills in the rest. Add a deductions or tax percentage to estimate your take-home pay. Everything is calculated instantly in your browser, so none of your figures are sent anywhere.
Conversions assume 52 weeks per year and use the hours per week and days per week you enter, so hourly and daily figures match your actual schedule. The deductions percentage is a simple flat estimate. Real tax depends on your country, allowances and bands, so treat the take-home figure as a guide rather than exact payroll.

Type the salary figure you know — annual salary, monthly wage, weekly pay, daily rate, or hourly rate — and select the matching period from the dropdown. The calculator converts whatever you enter into all the other periods automatically, so it does not matter which one you start with.
The defaults are 40 hours and 5 days per week — standard for a full-time job. If you work part-time, compressed hours, or a non-standard schedule, update these to get accurate daily and hourly figures. A nurse on 3 × 12-hour shifts would enter 36 hours and 3 days per week, for example.
Enter an approximate tax or deductions rate to see take-home pay estimates alongside gross figures. This is a flat-rate estimate — real tax varies by country, income band, and allowances — but it gives you a useful ballpark for budgeting. Leave it blank to see gross pay only.
Your pay figures never leave your browser.

One company offers $60,000 a year; another offers $30 an hour. Enter $30/hour (40hr week) and you get $62,400 annually — the hourly role pays more. Without a conversion, the gap is easy to miss when one offer is in thousands and the other is in dollars per hour.
You want to match your previous $75,000 salary. Enter $75,000 per year and read the hourly figure: about $36.06. That is your minimum billable rate at 40 hours a week. In practice, freelancers charge more to cover unpaid admin time, taxes, and benefit gaps — but the conversion gives you the floor.
A teacher working 3 days a week at $28/hour. Enter $28/hour, set days per week to 3 and hours per week to 24. You get an annual equivalent of $34,944 — useful for comparing against a full-time role, checking pension contribution amounts, or setting salary expectations when applying for similar positions.
Enter your salary and a flat deduction rate — 25% as a rough guide for many middle-income earners — to see a ballpark take-home figure per month. Use this when planning a budget for a new job before you have received your first payslip and know the exact deductions.
Your salary goes from $55,000 to $60,000. Enter each in turn to see the monthly difference: $4,583 vs $5,000 — a gain of $417 per month. It puts the annual raise in terms of what actually lands in your account each pay cycle, which makes it easier to decide whether it meets your expectations.
A UK job offers £45,000 a year; a US role offers $55 per hour. Convert both to annual or hourly equivalents using the same assumptions to compare like for like — then layer in cost-of-living differences and tax rates to make an informed decision.
The calculator converts your input into an annual figure first, then derives all other periods from that. Annual ÷ 12 = monthly. Annual ÷ 52 = weekly. Weekly ÷ days per week = daily. Daily ÷ hours per day = hourly (where hours per day = hours per week ÷ days per week). This means adjusting your hours or days per week directly affects the daily and hourly outputs.
Hourly = annual salary ÷ 52 weeks ÷ hours per week. For $60,000 at 40 hours per week: $60,000 ÷ 52 ÷ 40 = $28.85 per hour. Change the hours per week to 35 and the hourly rate rises to $32.97 — because the same annual pay is spread across fewer hours.
It is a rough guide only. The calculator applies a single flat percentage across your whole income, which is a simplification. Real take-home pay depends on progressive tax bands (you pay different rates on different portions of income), national insurance or social security contributions, pension deductions, student loan repayments, and country-specific allowances. Use the result for ballpark budgeting, not payroll planning.
A rough starting point: 20–25% for basic-rate taxpayers in the UK or moderate-income earners in the US; 30–35% for higher-rate UK taxpayers or US earners in the $80,000–$150,000 bracket; 10–15% for lower incomes where tax-free allowances cover a larger proportion of earnings. These are very approximate — check your most recent payslip for the actual percentage.
Enter your target annual income as "per year" and read the hourly figure. That is the gross minimum. Freelancers typically add 20–40% on top to cover unpaid administration time, gaps between projects, self-employment tax, and costs that employed workers receive for free (equipment, insurance, holidays). The calculator gives you the baseline; you set the premium.
