Clock in from your phone, with fingerprint or face unlock

With Zeprub, each employee clocks in and out from their own phone. They confirm it's them with their fingerprint or face, the same way they unlock the phone, and the punch arrives with the time and place. You don't need to buy a time clock or hand out cards.

What it does

The first time, the employee registers their phone in Zeprub. From then on, to clock in they open Zeprub, tap Clock in and use their fingerprint or look at the screen. The phone checks the fingerprint or face and tells Zeprub it was the right person. The fingerprint never leaves the phone.

Because each punch is tied to that person's phone, it's very hard for a coworker to clock in for someone else with a borrowed code or card. If someone clocks in from a new phone, the punch is flagged so you can review it.

Every punch saves the time, the location at that moment and, if you ask for it, a selfie. On your dashboard you see who arrived, who was late and who didn't show up.

  • Works in the browser on a phone or computer, with nothing to install
  • Can be added to the phone's home screen to open Zeprub with one tap

Frequently asked questions

Does Zeprub store my employees' fingerprints or faces?

No. The fingerprint or face is checked by the phone itself, just like when it's unlocked. Zeprub only receives confirmation that it was the right person.

Do my employees need to install an app to clock in?

No. They can clock in from the browser on their phone or computer, with nothing to install.

What if an employee doesn't have a phone?

They can use a kiosk: a tablet at the entrance where they clock in with their code and PIN, or with their QR code.

What happens when an employee gets a new phone?

They register the new one from their portal. The first punch from a new phone is flagged so you can review it, and you can remove the old phone from the system.
