Why Wisconsin businesses choose us

Time Clock Kiosks (PIN, Badge & Photo Punch) FAQs

Can it stop buddy punching?

Yes. Photo capture or badge-plus-PIN punches make it easy to see who actually clocked in.

How much does a self-service kiosk cost?

A tablet-based countertop kiosk with custom software often starts around $1,750. Freestanding or outdoor kiosks with custom enclosures, printers and climate protection typically run $4,000–$10,000+ per unit, plus software. We quote every project individually.

Can a kiosk work if the internet goes down?

We design for it. Depending on the use case, kiosks can queue orders offline, use cellular backup or show a clear fallback message so customers are never stuck.
