Can employees easily clock in and out?

Yes — employees can register their working hours using the mobile app, desktop interface, or a physical clock terminal (e.g., key fob or card). Punch clock times sync automatically, reducing errors for cleaner payroll processing.  Try it for free and see how simple tracking can be.

Can managers clock hours for employees when needed?

Yes — managers can manually clock employees in or out via the Timesheet tab, making it flexible for situations when staff can’t register themselves.

Want to see how? Request a demo.

What about employees who work multiple shifts in one day?

No problem — with our Premium plan, employees can seamlessly switch between shifts without clocking out first, ideal for split-day or split-location work.

Explore  Premium features in our pricing overview.

Are breaks, surcharges, and rounding handled automatically?

Yes — Shiftbase automates surcharges, break registration, and rounding according to your configured rules. You can also choose whether schedules copy into timesheets or require approval.

Can I restrict clock-ins to specific locations?

Yes — use geofencing or IP address-based restrictions to ensure employees can clock in only from approved locations. This helps prevent fraud and keeps records accurate.

Absolutely — our “Timesheet Totals” report includes hours worked, surcharges, overtime, wage costs, kilometers, meals, and more for easy exporting and oversight.
