A time clock kiosk on the tablet you already own.
Mount an iPad or Android tablet at the door, and employees clock in with a PIN in two taps. Each punch carries the job, department or role, flows into schedules and overtime flags, and ends up in payroll review — no badge readers, no proprietary hardware, no service contract.

How the kiosk works.
Log the tablet in as a kiosk, mount it, done.
Open PunchPro on the tablet, switch it to kiosk mode, and lock it to that screen. Employees get a PIN automatically when you add them. Replace the tablet any time; the data lives in your account, not the device.
- Kiosk mode on any iPad or Android tablet
- PINs generated per employee
- Multiple kiosks per location or site
PIN, confirm, work.
Employees enter their PIN, see their name and current status, and tap Clock In. If you track jobs, departments or roles, they pick one on the same screen. Breaks and clock-out are the same two taps.
- Clock in, break, clock out from one screen
- Job, department or role selection
- Punch shows the current status so nobody double-punches
Punches flow into schedules, flags and payroll review.
A kiosk punch is the same as a phone or web punch. It lands on the timecard, compares against the schedule, counts toward overtime thresholds, and shows up in payroll review with every other hour.
- Scheduled vs. actual by employee
- Overtime and missed punches flagged mid-week
- Approved hours export to your payroll provider
Guardrails before you approve. Export to the payroll you already run.
Timecards with missed punches, unexpected overtime or edits are flagged before the period locks, with one-tap fixes and an audit trail. Approved hours export to QuickBooks, ADP, Paychex or Paycom, so nothing changes on the payroll side.
- Configurable guardrails: Off / Warn / Block
- Flagged timecards surfaced first, bulk approval for the rest
- Export to QuickBooks, ADP, Paychex, Paycom
Running by the next shift.

Time clock kiosk questions, answered plainly.
What tablet do I need?
Any current iPad or Android tablet. Mount it near the entrance with power; there's no proprietary hardware to buy.
How do employees identify themselves?
With a personal PIN. The kiosk shows their name and current status before they confirm the punch.
Can employees use the kiosk and the phone app?
Yes. Kiosk, mobile and web punches land on the same timecard, so a supervisor can punch from a phone and the crew from the tablet.
Can I track jobs or departments from the kiosk?
Yes. Employees pick a job, department or role on the same screen as the punch.
What happens if the internet drops?
The tablet needs a connection to record punches. If your Wi-Fi is unreliable, use a tablet with cellular data or have employees punch from the phone app.
How much does PunchPro cost for a team using a kiosk?
$39.99 per month per business plus $7 per active employee per month, every feature included. A 20-person team is $179.99 per month. 14-day free trial, no credit card.
