Common Challenges

What retail chains struggle with every day

Buddy Punching on the Shop Floor

Part-time staff clock each other in during busy shifts. Payroll pays for hours nobody actually worked.

Rotating Shifts, Manual Rosters

Retail staff work variable part-time and rotating shifts across multiple stores. Building rosters by spreadsheet takes hours every week.

No Visibility Across Stores

Head office can’t see live staffing levels across a chain of stores — they find out about understaffing only when sales drop.

Payroll Doesn’t Match Reality

Manual timesheets from store managers rarely match what actually happened on the floor, causing payroll disputes.

Fraud-Proof Clock-ins

Stop Buddy Punching for Good

Face recognition with liveness detection means only the actual employee can clock themselves in — no more covering for a late colleague.

  • Face recognition with liveness detection at every clock-in
  • Store-level geofencing confirms staff are on the shop floor
  • Attempted proxy punches are blocked instantly
  • Store manager notified the moment a mismatch happens
