Frequently asked questions

  • Can staff have multiple roles/pay rates?

    Yes. Employees can select their role (e.g., Server vs. Host) when clocking in to ensure the correct pay rate is applied.

  • Does it work on our existing iPads?

    likely yes. ClockIt Kiosk runs on standard iOS and Android tablets, so you can often use hardware you already have.

  • How do you handle split shifts?

    Employees can clock in and out multiple times a day. Our system tracks total hours accurately across split shifts.

  • What about tipping?

    While ClockIt focuses on time tracking, accurate hours are the foundation for tip pools. We ensure the hours data for calculations is precise.

  • Is there an offline mode?

    Yes. If the internet goes down, punches are stored locally and synced once connection is restored.

  • Can we enforce breaks?

    Yes. Configure mandatory paid or unpaid breaks to stay compliant with labor laws.

  • Does it integrate with Gusto/ADP/QuickBooks?

    Yes. We support one-click exports to major payroll providers.

  • How much does it cost?

    We offer a free plan for small teams. Paid plans start with a trial so you can test all features.

  • Can I manage schedules too?

    Yes. Create and share schedules directly within ClockIt, and get alerts for no-shows.

  • Is it easy to set up?

    Very. Most restaurants get set up in under a day. Import staff, set up the kiosk, and go.
