Online time clock and DTR for the Philippines.

The right one is the cheapest tool that still knows the pay rules you actually run on. Some global trackers let you build holiday and overtime rules yourself, which works if you are willing to configure and maintain them. Local HR suites know the rules but bundle payroll and an HRIS you may not need. ClockTap sits between them: the three Philippine day types as built-in categories and a night-differential window on 10 PM to 6 AM, at a flat yearly peso price, with a free tier for your first 5 employees and the day types on Pro.

Not to record attendance. A fingerprint reader ties a clock-in to a person; ClockTap ties it to a place, with an employee PIN plus two locks you control — the clock-in must come from the location's own network, or from inside a radius around it. For a lot of shift teams that is the part that matters, and it means no hardware to buy. Be clear about the trade: a PIN can be shared and a fingerprint cannot, and a terminal can also unlock a door, which software cannot.

Yes. Set the location to personal-phone mode, then switch on each employee who may clock in from their own device. A branch with a counter can run a shared kiosk while a deployed crew clocks in from personal phones, both under the same rules and feeding the same timesheet. The phone option is what makes guards, merchandisers, and field crews trackable at all.

Yes, on a paid plan. Turn holiday tracking on for a location and it tracks the three categories separately — regular holiday, special non-working day, and special working day — and adds night differential for hours worked between 10 PM and 6 AM. Hours then land in the right bucket as they are worked, so the export comes out already split. Holiday day types are a Pro and Max feature; Starter covers the kiosk, attendance, and approvals.

No, deliberately. ClockTap counts hours and prices them so you can hand the result to whoever runs your payroll — an accountant, a spreadsheet, or payroll software. It does not compute SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG, or BIR deductions and does not file anything. That is what keeps it cheap and quick to set up.

Starter is free for 5 employees at 1 location, with the kiosk included. Pro is ₱2,990 a year for up to 50 employees and 5 locations, and Max is ₱6,990 a year for up to 250 employees and 25 locations. The price is flat per plan, not per employee, so hiring does not change the bill until you pass the plan's employee limit. Those are the standard list prices; a lower launch rate is running today on the pricing page.

ClockTap runs in a browser and needs a connection to record a clock-in. For a shop with unreliable internet the practical fallback is a phone hotspot on the kiosk device, and a supervisor can file a correction request for any clock-in that was missed — it goes through the same approval queue as everything else.

No — ClockTap does not read third-party terminals. It replaces the device rather than talking to it. If you are committed to existing hardware, a vendor that reads it, such as PAYDAY.PH or ELID, fits better than we do.

It is self-serve, so it depends on how many employees you type in. Create the location, add your employees, hand out PINs, and open the kiosk on any spare device. There is no installation, no site survey, and no sales call to wait for.
