1
Stick it up
Put a tag by the entrance, the time clock spot or the break room. It's battery-free, so there's nothing to plug in or charge.
NFC tags
Clock in with a tap
TimeHub NFC tags turn any doorway into a time clock. Employees tap their phone on the tag and TimeHub opens, ready to clock in.
How it works
Three steps, no hardware to manage
2
Tap a phone
Employees hold their phone near the tag. TimeHub opens straight away in their phone's browser. There's no app to install.
3
Clock in
One more tap on Clock in and they're on the clock. Breaks and clock-outs work the same way.
Tags vs a kiosk
Easier for employees. Cheaper for you.
| TimeHub NFC tag | Shared kiosk tablet | |
|---|---|---|
| Hardware | A small sticker tag | A tablet, a stand and a power outlet |
| Upkeep | None: no battery, no updates | Charging, software updates, cleaning |
| Employees sign in with | Their own phone, already signed in | An employee number and PIN |
| Lines at shift change | No: everyone uses their own phone | One person at a time |
| Shared touchscreen | No | Yes |
Prefer a kiosk? TimeHub's kiosk mode is still included on every plan, and you can use both.
Questions
NFC tags, answered
Which phones work?
iPhone XS and newer, and most Android phones with NFC turned on. Anyone without NFC can still clock in from TimeHub on their phone or computer, or use kiosk mode.
Do employees need an app?
No. The tag opens TimeHub in the phone's browser. Employees sign in once and stay signed in.
Does the tag prove someone is on site?
The tag is a fast way to open the clock. To check that people clock in near your location, turn on TimeHub's optional location check, which keeps only the distance from your site, never exact coordinates.
How many do I need?
Usually one for each entrance employees use to start their shift. Many businesses need one or two per location.
