Front-of-house and back-of-house staff clock in for each shift from a kiosk by the line or their own phone. Managers fix missed punches, review breaks, and approve hours before payroll.

Restaurant benefits

Make payroll less chaotic after a busy week.

Restaurants run on hourly staff, shift changes, and split roles. Clockspot keeps the time records clean so a manager is not rebuilding the week from memory, paper, or the POS on payday.

Made for hourly shift staff, breaks, and payroll review.

Fits the shift rush

Staff clock in fast from a shared kiosk by the line or their own phone, even on a busy night.

Keeps roles straight

Use jobs for server, kitchen, host, bar, or prep when a manager needs hours by role or station.

Catches the exceptions

Missed clock-outs, early outs, and break issues are visible before they reach payroll.

One record per location

Run one location or several, and review each restaurant on its own.

Customer story

Restaurant questions

Questions restaurants ask before switching.

  • Shared kiosk
  • Breaks on record
  • Payroll-ready export

Does Clockspot replace my POS or scheduling?

No. Clockspot tracks employee time and creates payroll-ready records. Your POS, scheduling, tip handling, and payroll processing stay in their own systems.

Can staff clock in on a shared tablet?

Yes. Run a kiosk on a tablet by the line or host stand, and each employee clocks in with a personal PIN.

Can we track hours by role or station?

Yes. Use jobs for server, kitchen, host, bar, or prep, and staff can choose the role when they clock in.

Can we see breaks and missed punches?

Yes. Breaks stay on the time entry, and managers can review missed punches and corrections before approving payroll.

Track restaurant staff hours before payroll.
