The clock-in experience employees actually use

Field workers, remote staff, and on-site teams all use the same app — with GPS location verification built in from the start.

GPS-verified clock-in

Every punch records the employee's GPS coordinates. Clock-ins outside approved zones are flagged instantly — no manual checking required.

Offline mode

No internet? No problem. The app caches clock events locally and syncs automatically when connectivity is restored. Punches are never lost.

Schedule view & notifications

Employees see their upcoming shifts, receive push notifications when schedules are published, and confirm or request swaps — all from the same app.

Leave & PTO requests

Submit PTO requests, check balances, and see approval status without calling HR. The full leave workflow lives in the mobile app.

Kiosk mode

One tablet. Unlimited employees. Zero friction.

Mount any iPad or Android tablet at the entrance and every employee clocks in with a PIN, selfie, or face match — shared hardware, individual verified records.

Selfie & face verification

Employees take a selfie at clock-in. Optional facial-recognition match flags potential buddy-punches before they reach payroll.

PIN-based access

Employees enter a personal PIN. Fast, simple, no phones required. Ideal for warehouse floors, kitchens, or any environment where phones aren't practical.

Multi-site kiosk management

Manage kiosks across unlimited sites from a single admin dashboard. Each kiosk is location-tagged so clock-ins are automatically attributed to the correct site.

Restricted kiosk mode

Kiosk mode locks the tablet to the Smartclocksystems clock-in screen. Employees cannot access other apps, browse the web, or change device settings.

The difference

Paper timesheets vs. Smartclocksystems mobile & kiosk

The gap between how your team clocks in today and how they could.

Paper / manual systems
No location verification — anyone can sign anyone in
Paper timesheets lost, illegible, or disputed
Manager must manually tally hours at end of week
No offline capability — broken system if internet is down
Separate badge readers, apps, and payroll systems
Smartclocksystems mobile & kiosk
GPS + face match verifies every single punch
Digital record with photo, GPS, IP, and timestamp
Live dashboard updates instantly — no end-of-week tallying
Full offline mode — nothing lost when internet is down
One platform for mobile, kiosk, payroll, and scheduling

From our customers

Teams that ditched the paper timesheet

Real results from organizations using Smartclocksystems mobile & kiosk today.

"We installed two kiosk tablets at our warehouse entrance and eliminated paper timesheets entirely. Setup took 20 minutes. Our payroll admin saves 4 hours every week."

Tom Hargreaves
Warehouse Manager, FastTrack Logistics

"Our field engineers work in areas with patchy internet. The offline mode was the deciding factor for us. Punches sync when they get back in range and we've never lost a single record."

Amara Patel
HR Manager, Solaris Field Services

"The face verification on the kiosk ended buddy-punching at our retail stores immediately. We saw a $2,400 drop in unverified overtime in the first month alone."
