Whether you want a manager kiosk terminal at the entrance or prefer staff to tap their own phones against a contactless plaque — you choose the setup that fits your business.
Set up any Android smartphone or tablet by the door. Each worker gets a standard 30p contactless card or key fob. Staff simply tap the back of the kiosk to record their arrival.
Place our compact acrylic plaque or NFC sticker on your front counter, till, or entrance wall. Staff unlock their personal smartphone and tap the sign to confirm arrival.
Why UK small businesses are replacing messy paper sheets and invasive fingerprint hardware with contactless tags.
