Buddy Punch is a GPS time clock app that's so easy to use that your grandma could do it. With our web and mobile apps, employees can clock out at any job site. Combine that with the power of geofencing and GPS tracking, and you'll always know your employees are where they're supposed to be when they're on the clock.

LOCATION-TRACKING FEATURES

GPS on Punch: Capture employees' locations when they clock in and out, then review those locations on their timesheets to ensure they were on-site when they punched.

Geofencing: Create virtual borders around each of your job sites. With geofencing enabled, employees can only clock in and out when they're within the boundaries of a geofence.

Real-Time GPS Tracking: Track employees' locations across the entire workday. See where they're located on a map at any given moment, and view breadcrumb trails of everywhere they traveled over the course of a day.

Legal Compliance: Buddy Punch only tracks your employees' locations while they're on the clock — never when they're off of work.

Data and Battery Friendly: Less than 10 KB of data is used on average for GPS on Punch and Geofencing, and there isn’t any battery drain. We've designed Real-Time GPS Tracking to run in the background to minimize the impact on the phone's battery.

OTHER HELPFUL FEATURES

Photos on Punch: Require employees to take a picture of themselves when they clock in and out to prevent buddy punching. All photos can be reviewed on employees' time cards.

Automatic Calculations: All clock in and out data is compiled into timesheets with regular hours, overtime hours, and pay all automatically calculated for you.

Job Costing: Set up department codes in Buddy Punch to track the total time spent on specific jobs and projects, then run reports to help with budgeting and invoicing.

Payroll Integrations: Send your timesheet data to QuickBooks Time, Gusto, Paychex, SurePayroll, and more in just a few clicks to make running payroll faster than ever before.

Employee Scheduling: Create your work schedules in Buddy Punch to take advantage of even more features like attendance tracking, punch limiting, and automatic clock outs.

Notifications: Set up notifications for everything. Remind employees to clock in/out, get an alert when an employee is nearing overtime, let people know when a new schedule is live, and more.

PTO Tracking: Automatically calculate PTO accruals, deduct used PTO from balances, and add taken PTO to timesheets so employees get paid for their paid time off.
