Saturday at 8 in Gilbert.
The Heritage District Farmers Market is already on.
$15.15 is the floor in Arizona. One app for the whole shop: the schedule, assignable open/close tasks, GPS clock-in, early pay your team can tap before payday, and a group thread for swaps. Three months of your hourly Square sales is what teaches the draft that a market Saturday and a regular Agritopia Tuesday don't staff the same.
Coffee shop scheduling for Gilbert, AZ.
Gilbert, AZ
Arizona's 2026 minimum wage is $15.15/hr. AZ allows a $3.00/hr tip credit, so the tipped cash wage is $12.15 if tips bring total to $15.15. AZ weekly overtime applies after 40 hours; AZ has no daily overtime rule. Gilbert has no city-level minimum above the state floor.
Gilbert coffee demand splits across Heritage District morning commute, Agritopia weekday afternoons, and weekend market pulls. June through August empties the afternoon to almost nothing.
What changes Tuesday
It's 6:30 a.m. The Heritage District crowd is already in line. By 9, the morning is over.
Most apps ask you to type in how busy you'll be. Nobody types it in. So the schedule is wrong before it ships.
Three months of your Gilbert mornings already sit in your Square account. Real numbers. Hour by hour. The thing nobody flips through during a Sunday rebuild. Useful — but it's one piece of a bigger app, not the point of it.
The schedule is where most shops start; it's not where Coordinex stops. Your prep and closing duties become a checklist that follows each shift, so nothing rides on the closer's memory. Punches are tied to the shop's location, which quietly ends clocking-in-from-the-car. When a barista needs Friday off, it's a tap in the team thread, not a text you forget by Sunday. And when someone's rent is due before payday, they can draw the hours they've already worked instead of asking you for a favor. Across all of it, the Pulse view keeps an eye on overtime and the slow stretches so the numbers don't surprise you at month-end.
You still run the shop. We're not pretending the app knows your team better than you do.
Both of us did time behind a register before we wrote a line of code. The Sunday rebuild is the moment Coordinex was built for. An Agritopia weekday and a Power Ranch Saturday don't staff the same shift, and one citywide average can't tell them apart. We don't claim to run your shop. We just stop you from guessing the busy hours — using the Square history your block already proved.

How Gilbert coffee shops run differently
- Heritage District Farmers Market is the year's tentpole. Every Saturday — 8 a.m. to noon October through May, 7 to 11 in summer. A market Saturday and a non-market Saturday look like different shops.
- Agritopia and Power Ranch follow school clocks. Drop-off mornings hit at 7:30; pickup afternoons lift at 2:30. The middle of the day stays quiet.
- Slow weeks are where labor cost bites. A quiet Tuesday-Wednesday stretch still has to clear the $15.15 floor on every hour, so overstaffing the lull is money you don't get back. Coordinex reads your Square history and staffs the slow days lean.
- A 110-degree July afternoon doesn't need 4 baristas. It needs 1, door propped, patio shaded. Coordinex shows the heat-day pattern your shop already proved last summer.
Frequently asked
01What does Coordinex actually read from Square?+
Hourly sales, ticket counts, and item sales for the last three months. Read-only. We don't write back, we don't change menus, we don't touch payments.
02My baristas keep asking for advances. Does Coordinex help?+
Earned wage access is built in. They see what they've already earned mid-pay-period and can pull it without going to a payday lender. We don't take a cut from them. You don't get the awkward Monday text.
03We've got someone clocking in for a friend. Can the app catch it?+
Yes. Geofenced clock-in checks the phone is actually at the shop. Buddy-punch detection flags the patterns where one phone clocks in two people. We don't want you to be the cop. We want the clock to be honest.
04Can I keep the open and close routines from slipping?+
Turn them into tasks. Each shift gets its checklist — dial in the grinder, wipe the wand, count the drawer — and you can see what's done from your phone without standing over anyone. Messages, announcements, and the labor read in Pulse live in the same app, so the schedule is just the front door.
05Honest question — does it work on Android?+
Not yet. Coordinex is iPhone-only right now. We'd rather ship one platform that's actually good than two that are half-finished. Android is on the list. We won't put a date on it until it's real.
06How much?+
Free up to 5 teammates — no card. $9.99/mo Starter has a 7-day Apple trial. Full pricing at coordinex.app/pricing. If Coordinex isn't useful in week one, delete it.
07What happens to my data if I cancel?+
You own it on the way out. Export every schedule, timesheet, and wage record before you delete the app — nothing is held hostage, and we don't lock your history behind a final invoice. Month-to-month, cancel anytime.
