Stop time theft, track staff hours accurately, and simplify payroll for your restaurant, cafe, or bar. GPS-verified time clock app trusted by Australian hospitality businesses.
We understand the unique challenges facing hospitality businesses in Australia
Staff clocking in for colleagues who haven't arrived yet, costing you money on wages for unworked hours.
Employees rounding up hours on manual timesheets, adding 5-10 minutes per shift that adds up quickly.
Staff taking longer breaks than allowed without recording them, especially during quiet periods.
Spending hours each week collecting, checking, and calculating handwritten timesheets for payroll.
Difficulty tracking staff who work breakfast and dinner shifts with long breaks in between.
Not knowing if staff have arrived until customers are already waiting, causing understaffing issues.
Powerful features designed specifically for Australian hospitality businesses
Employees can only clock in when they're actually at your restaurant, cafe or bar. Prevents buddy punching and ensures staff are on-site before getting paid.
Optional photo capture on clock-in to verify identity. Great for venues with high staff turnover or multiple casual employees.
Staff clock in/out with a 4-digit PIN in seconds. No fumbling with passwords or apps during busy service periods.
Track unpaid breaks automatically. Complies with Fair Work regulations for hospitality. Deduct break time from total hours worked.
Manage staff across multiple restaurant, cafe or bar locations. Track attendance separately for each venue from one dashboard.
Export detailed timesheets for payroll. See total hours, overtime, and penalty rates. Compatible with Xero and QuickBooks (coming soon).
Get alerts when staff clock in late or don't show up. Address attendance issues immediately before service starts.
Staff clock in from their phone, tablet at the front desk, or computer in the office. No special hardware required.
Create rosters and schedules. Staff can see their upcoming shifts. Reduce confusion about who's working when.
Track annual leave, sick leave, and time off. Employees can request leave through the app. Approve or deny with one click.
Staff can leave notes when clocking out. Perfect for shift handovers, maintenance issues, or customer feedback.
Post announcements, menu changes, or special event details. Ensure all staff see important updates even if they work different shifts.

"TapOn has been a game-changer for our three Sydney cafes. We were losing about $400 a week to time theft and manual timesheet errors. Now everything is automatic and accurate. The GPS verification means staff can only clock in when they're actually at work. Highly recommend for any cafe owner!"
"We run a busy Italian restaurant in Melbourne with 18 staff across different shifts. Before TapOn, our manager spent hours every week sorting through paper timesheets. Now it takes 10 minutes to export everything for payroll. The break tracking also ensures we're compliant with Fair Work. Worth every cent!"
