Geofencing Time Tracking for UK Businesses
Set a geofence radius around your work locations. When employees clock in and out, their GPS coordinates and distance from the geofence are recorded. Out-of-range events are flagged for managers — providing clear, verified attendance records while respecting UK GDPR privacy rules.
Privacy-First Time Tracking
Our system is UK GDPR-aligned. We verify on-site presence with a GPS check only at the moment of clock-in and clock-out. We never track live location or movement history, ensuring employee privacy is protected.
Verify On-Site Attendance with GPS
Manual timesheets can't prove a worker was at the right location. Geofencing records GPS coordinates and distance from site at every check event, giving managers clear, verifiable evidence.
Flag Off-Site Check-ins
When a worker clocks in outside the geofence, the event is recorded with the actual distance and flagged for the manager. Clear visibility into every out-of-range event.
Individual Accountability
Each employee clocks in from their own device with GPS verification. Individual records eliminate the issue of colleagues clocking in for each other.
Trustworthy Timesheets
Every shift record includes GPS coordinates, accuracy, distance from the geofence, and timestamps. Approve with confidence and export to payroll.
Geofence Verification in 4 Steps
Add Locations
Register work locations with a postcode or coordinates. Set a geofence radius per location — from 10 metres to any size you need.
Invite Workers
Workers join via email invite and use the Android app or mobile web. Location permission is used only at the moment of clock-in and clock-out.
GPS-Verified Check-In
At clock-in, GPS coordinates and distance from the geofence are recorded. Out-of-range events are flagged automatically for managers.
Approve & Export
Managers review geofence-verified shifts and approve for payroll. Export to Sage, BrightPay, QuickBooks, or generic CSV.
Geofencing Features
Powerful for managers, simple for workers, private by design.
Custom Radius Per Location
Each location has its own geofence radius — from 10 metres for a precise office to hundreds of metres for a large site. Adjustable per location.
Multi-Location Support
Manage geofences across multiple sites from one dashboard. Starter includes 1 location, Business up to 10, Enterprise up to 50.
Violation Alerts
When a worker checks in outside the geofence, managers receive a notification. The distance from site is recorded and visible on the shift detail page.
GPS Data Per Event
Every check-in/out stores: GPS coordinates, accuracy in metres, distance from the geofence boundary, and a precise timestamp.
Simple for Workers
Workers clock in with a single tap. GPS verification happens automatically — no extra steps for the worker beyond granting location permission.
Privacy-First
GPS is captured only at clock-in/out. No live tracking, no route history, no background location. Managers cannot see live employee positions.

Add a location in the dashboard using a UK postcode (via Ordnance Survey lookup) or manual coordinates. Set a geofence radius in metres — from 10m for a precise boundary to any size for larger sites. The geofence is active immediately for all shifts assigned to that location.
No, not with our system. GPS is captured only at the moment a worker presses Clock In or Clock Out. There is no continuous tracking, no route history, no background location, and no live map. Managers see geofence verification results, not live positions. See our UK GDPR & Privacy page for details.
The check-in is recorded and the distance from site is logged. The event is flagged as out-of-range and a notification is sent to managers. Managers can review all flagged events on the shift detail page and decide how to handle them.
Starter includes 1 location, Business supports up to 10, and Enterprise offers up to 50. Each location has its own geofence radius. You can assign workers to specific locations via schedules.
Geofencing is a core feature included in all plans. Plans are flat-fee based on features and location count, not per-user. There are no extra charges for geofencing.
