Sound familiar?

What we hear most from daycares and preschools, and what Kloqk does about it.

Ratios depend on who is actually in the building

Every punch keeps a photo and a time, and you can see who is clocked in right now.

Post the open shift and your floaters see it on their phones.

Time off by sticky note

Requests come through the app, you approve them, and balances are on each person's screen.

Questions owners ask

Is it really free?
Yes. The time clock, the schedule and time off are free for an unlimited number of employees at one location, with no credit card and no end date. The free plan shows the last 90 days of records on screen; older records are kept, not deleted.
So what costs money?
Pro adds more locations, your full history, staff availability and shift swaps. Premium adds GPS job sites. You never need either to run your time clock and schedule at one location.
Do I need to buy a time clock?
No. Any tablet, computer or phone you already have becomes the time clock by opening a link. Staff punch in with a 4-digit PIN, or from their own phone.
Do my employees need email or a smartphone?
No. They can clock in with a PIN on a shared tablet. Those who want to can also clock in and see their schedule on their own phone.
How long does setup take?
Most owners are punching the same day: name your business, add your staff (or upload a spreadsheet), and open the time clock on a tablet or phones.
