Your team clocks in from the phone already in their pocket — no punch clock, no scanner, no fingerprint reader
Everyone clocks in and out on their own phone. You see who is on the clock right now, where they clocked in from, and exactly how many hours to pay — without buying a single piece of hardware.
Nobody sets out to run a business on scraps of paper and a group chat. It just happens, one week at a time.
Somebody has to add up the week by hand, decipher the handwriting, and guess what “left early-ish” means. It takes hours, and it is never quite right.
Fifteen minutes rounded up here, a forgotten break there. Across six people it is a wage you are paying for work nobody did.
If your people work on sites, in vans or in customers’ homes, “I’m there now” in a text message is the only proof you have.
A pay dispute, an insurance question, an audit. A shoebox of timesheets is not a record you can stand behind.
Who is on Saturday? You know, but nobody else does — so you spend your evening answering the same question five times.
Off the paper, into a spreadsheet, then into the payroll system. Every retype is another chance to get somebody’s pay wrong.
Key feature 01 — clock in
There is no box on the wall to buy, no fingerprint scanner to mount, no card reader to wire in. Your staff open the app on their own phone, tap once, and they are on the clock.
Key feature 02 — proof
When somebody starts a shift, the app records where they were and, if you turn it on, takes a photo. Not a running tail on their day — a stamp at the moment they clock in and out.
Key feature 03 — payroll
The hours are already counted. Overtime is already worked out. Breaks are already taken off. You look it over, approve it, and export it to whoever runs your payroll.
Key feature 04 — the rota
Build next week’s schedule once. Your staff open the app and see their own shifts. The rota stops living in your head and your phone stops buzzing at nine on a Sunday.
Key feature 05 — control
Not everybody should see everything. Roles decide who can approve a timesheet, who can only see their own hours, and who can change a shift after the fact.
A crew on a building site and a receptionist at a front desk do not need the same thing. You can use one method or mix several.
One big button. They tap when they arrive, tap again when they leave. Nothing else to think about.
They pick the shift they are starting from the ones you have set up, so the hours land in the right place.
A shared tablet by the door and a personal PIN each. Nobody needs their own phone or their own login.
A list of everyone on today. They tap their own name and they are on. Good for a busy shift change.
Stick a code on the wall or the van. Scanning it proves they were physically at that site — no scanner to buy.
Every one of these runs on hardware you already own. A phone, a spare tablet, or a printed sheet of paper with a code on it. There is nothing to mount on a wall, nothing to wire in, and nothing to replace when it breaks.
Most businesses start with clock-in and timesheets. The rest is there when you want it, and it does not get in your way until then.
The core of it. Any phone, tablet or computer with a browser becomes a time clock — on site, in a van, or at a customer’s house.
Where somebody was when they clocked in and out, plotted on a map. Not a live tail on their day — a stamp at each end of the shift.
The phone camera takes a picture as they clock in, attached to the shift. It settles the “my mate clocked me in” question for good.
Staff start and end a break the same way they clock in. Unpaid time comes off the total automatically, so you are not paying for lunch.
Set the threshold once and the system does the arithmetic. Overtime hours are flagged on the timesheet before you ever see the payroll.
Build the rota for the week or the month, publish it, and let people look it up themselves instead of texting you on a Sunday.
Somebody forgot to clock out. It happens every week. A manager fixes it by hand in seconds, and the change is recorded.
Turn on approvals and an edited shift does not become real until a manager signs it off. Useful the moment you have more than one supervisor.
Managers, staff, contractors and volunteers each see a different amount. Build your own roles if those four do not fit your business.
Every shift is tied to the place it happened. See hours by site, by crew, or by customer — which is how you find out what a job really cost.
Simple reports for a quick look and detailed ones for payroll. Monthly and yearly charts show your hours and your wage bill moving.
Download the period as a spreadsheet, a CSV or a PDF. It slots into the common accounting and payroll packages without anybody retyping it.
Ask what you need at clock-in or clock-out — which van, which customer, what got done. The answers land on the shift and on the report.
If you have people in different places, or somebody travelling, the clock follows them. Hours stay right and nobody argues about the maths.
It does not care whether the work happens behind a counter, on a roof, or in somebody else’s kitchen. What it cares about is when it started and when it stopped.
If your people are hourly, shift-based, or spread across more than one place, this is what it was built for. If everyone is salaried and sits in one room, you probably do not need it — and we will say so. We also build dedicated websites for contractors and trades, salons, spas and barbershops, tax preparers and acupuncture clinics.
Optional add-on
The same idea, applied to your equipment. Laptops, power tools, vans, ladders, test kit — anything that walks off site and does not always walk back.
Priced separately from the plans below, because most businesses do not need it on day one. Mention it at the demo and we will quote it with the rest.
Not by how many features you are allowed to touch. Move up or down a plan as your headcount changes — month to month, no contract.
A small crew where the owner is still the one doing the timesheets.
Up to 5 staff. Billed monthly, cancel any time.
A team big enough that somebody other than you needs to approve the hours.
Up to 25 staff. Billed monthly, cancel any time.
Several crews, several sites, and a payroll run that has to be right every time.
Unlimited staff. Billed monthly, cancel any time.
This is a separate service from our $499 website packages. Attendance is priced on its own because we host it, keep it updated and support it every month. If you already have a website with us, we install it into that site at no extra setup cost — you only pay the monthly plan above. Setup and configuration is quoted separately and depends on how many staff, sites and rules you need us to build in.
Your staff, your sites, your shift rules and your overtime threshold are all in place before you see it. You do not get a login and a manual.
Your logo, your colours, on your own web address. Your team clocks into your company, not into a piece of software they have never heard of.
Nothing to buy, mount, wire in or replace. If a phone breaks, they use another one and carry on — there is no clock on the wall to be broken.
Leave whenever you like and we export the lot — staff, shifts, locations, timesheets — in a format you can actually open. No exit fee.
Attendance software touches people’s pay and people’s privacy, so it is worth being plain about the limits before you buy.
It does not follow your staff around. Location is recorded at the moment somebody clocks in and clocks out — not continuously, and not while they are off the clock. This is a time clock, not a tracking device, and we will not pretend otherwise to make a sale.
It is not payroll software and it does not file anything. It counts the hours and hands over clean figures. Working out withholding, running the pay run and filing returns is still your payroll provider’s job or your accountant’s.
We are not your employment lawyer. Recording where staff clock in, and how you store that record, is something you should tell your people about and check against your own obligations. We will help you set it up sensibly and we can turn location off entirely — but the policy is yours, and it is worth a conversation with your own advisor.
It cannot make people clock in. If half the team forgets for the first fortnight, that is normal and it passes — but the system will not do it for them. Managers can correct a missed clock-out in seconds, which is usually enough to get through the settling-in period.
It needs a signal to record the exact moment. Out of coverage in a basement or a rural site, the clock-in lands when the phone reconnects. If that is a daily problem for your crews, a shared tablet with a PIN pad at the gate is usually the better answer — we will tell you that at the demo.
Twenty minutes on a screen share. We put in your real shift pattern and your real overtime rule, then you clock in on your own phone and watch the timesheet build itself.
If your setup means it is not worth the money, we will tell you. No pressure and no obligation.

Tell us a little about your team and we will come back within one business day.
No, and that is deliberate. It opens in the browser on their phone and pins to the home screen, so it looks and behaves like an app without anybody waiting on a download or an update. It works the same way on iPhone and Android, and if somebody changes phone there is nothing to reinstall.
Put a cheap tablet by the door and give them a PIN. They tap their number and they are on the clock — no phone, no login, no email address needed. Plenty of businesses run a mix: phones for the people out on the road, a tablet for everyone on site.
That is exactly what the location check and the photo are for. The shift records where the phone was, and if you turn photos on it takes a picture at the moment they clock in. For sites where you want it airtight, a QR code stuck on the wall means they have to physically be there to scan it.
No. Location is captured at clock-in and clock-out, and nowhere in between. There is no live map following people around and nothing is recorded once they clock off. You can also switch location off completely and still use everything else — some businesses do.
It exports the period as a spreadsheet, a CSV or a PDF, which is what the common accounting and payroll packages take. Tell us at the demo which one you use and we will show you the export it produces, so you can check it before you commit rather than after.
It happens every week in every business. A manager opens the shift and corrects it by hand in a few seconds. If you turn on approvals, that correction has to be signed off before it counts towards pay, and the original is kept in the shift history so nothing disappears quietly.
For a handful of staff at one location, usually two or three days. For several crews, multiple sites, custom roles and approval rules, expect one to two weeks — most of that spent agreeing how you want it to behave rather than building it. We do the setup and train your team on the day it goes live.
No. Attendance is a separate monthly service because we host it, keep it updated and support it every month. If your website is already with us we install it into that site at no extra setup cost and you pay only the monthly plan. Setup for larger teams is quoted separately.
Each of these stands on its own. They are better together, and we join them up so the same information never gets typed twice.
Already with us for one of these? Ask about bundling them. And if you send another business our way, our referral program pays you for it.
Twenty minutes, your own shift pattern in it, and you can decide afterwards.
