No. Employees just use a PIN at the kiosk. No accounts, no email addresses, no app downloads required. Only the business admin needs a PunchFlow account.
Any device with a web browser — tablet, phone, laptop, or desktop. iOS, Android, Windows, Mac — it all works. No app installation needed. Simply open the kiosk URL in any browser.
Under 2 minutes. Sign up, enter your business name and timezone, add your first employee with a PIN, then open the kiosk URL on any shared device. That's it.
Pricing & Plans
Yes. The free plan is free forever — no time limit, no trial period, no credit card required. Start immediately with up to 3 employees and 1 kiosk.
Yes. No contracts, no cancellation fees. Downgrade to the free plan or cancel entirely from your billing settings whenever you like.
You'll be prompted to upgrade your plan. All your existing data is completely safe. You can upgrade at any time, or remove inactive employees to stay on your current plan.
Payroll & Integrations
PunchFlow exports time data as CSV or PDF, which you can import into Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, or any payroll software. Export filtered reports by employee and pay period, then upload the CSV to your payroll system.
Security & Privacy
Yes. PINs are hashed using bcrypt and never stored in plain text. Every login attempt is logged. Multi-tenant isolation means one business can never access another's data. The service runs on HTTPS with enforced SSL.
Each employee has a unique PIN only they know. All clock-ins are recorded with a timestamp, device IP address, and optional GPS location. The full audit log records every manual change — who changed it, when, and what the original value was.
PunchFlow is built and operated in Australia and complies with the Australian Privacy Act. See our Privacy Policy for full details on how we collect, use, and protect your data.
Multi-Location & Kiosks
Yes. Each kiosk gets its own unique URL that you open on a separate device at each location. All activity flows into the same admin dashboard, and you can filter reports by kiosk or employee.
Your data remains accessible until the end of your billing period. After cancellation you can request a full export. Data is permanently deleted 30 days after account closure upon written request.
