A clock-in tablet at every location, one timesheet for all of them.
When staff work across several sites, a personal time-clock app on every phone falls apart — installs, logins, forgotten passwords, hours scattered across accounts. GetUp puts a shared tablet at each door. Staff punch in with a PIN, and every location's hours land in the same place, ready for payroll.
- Shared tablet per site — staff clock in with a PIN, nothing to install
- Every location's attendance in one timesheet, not one app per person
- Missed punches and odd hours flagged before they reach payroll
The problem
What this fixes
What a shared, location-based clock fixes that a per-phone app doesn't.
Without GetUp
Every employee needs the app installed, signed in and updated. Half the team is locked out on day one.
With GetUp
One tablet at the door, already signed in. Staff tap a PIN and they're clocked in — no personal device, no install.
Without GetUp
Hours live in each worker's app. Pulling a location's total means chasing screenshots.
With GetUp
Every punch from every site lands in one timesheet view you can filter by location, person or week.
Without GetUp
Someone forgets to clock out, and you find the 14-hour shift on payday.
With GetUp
Missing and suspicious punches are flagged as they happen, so you fix them while you still remember the day.
How it works
From setup to running it
Standing up a shared clock at each location takes minutes per site.
- 01
Open the tablet check-in at each site
Put any tablet at the entrance and open the location's check-in screen. It stays signed in to that venue — no per-employee accounts to manage.
- 02
Give each person a PIN
Every staff member gets a short PIN tied to their record. That's the whole enrolment: no app download, no password reset queue.
- 03
Staff clock in and out at the door
Tap PIN to start a shift, tap again to end it or take a break. The tablet records the real time, at the real location.
- 04
Review the timesheet
Hours roll up into one timesheet across every site. Filter by location or person, and clean up any flagged missed punches in a click.
- 05
Send it to payroll
Approved hours feed hourly payroll directly — no re-keying numbers from a clock into a spreadsheet.
Outcomes
What changes
What a location-based clock gives you that scattered apps can't.
Apps to install
Staff don't need a phone, an account or a download. The tablet at the door is the whole system.
Timesheet for every site
All attendance, every location, one view — filterable, exportable, ready for pay.
Cleaner hours
Flagged missed punches get fixed in the moment instead of becoming payday disputes.
Straight to pay
Real clock times become the basis for payroll automatically, so the number you pay is the number worked.

FAQ
Questions people ask
Do employees need to install an app to clock in?
No. The clock runs on a shared tablet you place at each location, already signed in to that site. Staff clock in and out with a personal PIN, so there's nothing for them to download, no account to create and no password to reset.
Can one tablet handle a whole location's staff?
Yes. A single tablet at the door serves everyone who works that site — each person just enters their own PIN. Larger sites can run more than one tablet, and all of them feed the same timesheet.
What happens if someone forgets to clock out?
GetUp flags missing and unusually long punches as they occur, so a forgotten clock-out shows up immediately rather than as a surprise on payday. A manager can correct the entry, and the correction is tracked.
Does the time clock work across multiple locations at once?
That's exactly what it's built for. Every location's tablet reports into one place, so you get a single timesheet you can filter by site, person or week — instead of one app's worth of hours per employee.
How do the hours become pay?
Approved clock-in times flow straight into hourly payroll, calculated per person across every location they worked. You're paying from the real times recorded at the door, not from numbers re-typed out of a separate clock.
