Clock-in app: clock in under 2 seconds

Your employees clock in and out from their phone with one tap, via NFC, or automatically by schedule. No expensive hardware, no hassle.

What is a clock-in app?

A clock-in app is a mobile application that lets employees record their work entry and exit times directly from their smartphone. It replaces traditional methods (time clocks, sign-in sheets, Excel) with a digital, fast process that's compliant with work time registration legislation.

With Ficha.Work, clocking in is as simple as tapping a button on your phone. The clock-in is recorded instantly in the cloud with the exact time, GPS location (optional), and worker identity. Managers check their team's clock-ins in real time and the company complies with the law without administrative effort.

Three ways to clock in with the app

One-tap manual clock-in

The employee opens the app and taps the entry or exit button. Clock-in is recorded with exact time and optional GPS location. The most versatile method, valid from any location.

NFC clock-in

Install an NFC base in the office (€35, one-time payment). Employees clock in by tapping their phone on the base. No app to open, no passwords. The fastest and most secure method.

Automatic schedule-based clock-in

Assign a schedule to the employee and the system sends a notification at entry time. The employee confirms their presence and the clock-in is recorded automatically.

Optional GPS

The system can record GPS location at clock-in time to verify the employee is at the correct location. GPS only activates at the moment of clock-in — no continuous tracking.

Clock-in under 2 seconds

With any of the three methods, clock-in completes in under 2 seconds. Less friction means higher adoption and fewer corrections to manage.

Security without biometrics

Individual credentials per worker without using biometric data. Compliant with the new regulation that explicitly excludes facial recognition and fingerprints.
