What we're building
Away for work. Connected to home.
FIFO Mate is being built around family connection first — shared rosters, important dates, flight updates and the little things that make being away easier. The rest of the app is the toolkit around that.
❤️ Family Shared roster, birthdays, anniversaries, pickup alerts, home countdowns.
⛏️ FIFO Tools Camp info, packing, pay, flights, rooms, maintenance and more.

I’m helping test a new FIFO app called FIFO Mate. It’s built around camp info, what to bring, phone coverage, rosters, pay comparison and everything you wish you knew before a swing. Have a play and give brutally honest feedback.
Welcome to FIFO Mate
Founding Crew Test
This prototype shows the bigger FIFO Mate vision: family connection at the centre, surrounded by the tools that make working away easier.
Try the camp info, packing list, roster and pay tools. If anything is wrong, missing or pointless, tell us.
Demo camp data is fictional. Do not rely on it for real travel, safety or employment decisions.
