How CloudApper AI TimeClock Turns a Tablet Into a Dayforce Employee Self-Service Kiosk
CloudApper AI TimeClock for Dayforce converts everyday Android tablets and iPads into a fully customizable self-service kiosk, integrating seamlessly with Dayforce so every clock-in, request, and data point stays in sync with your core system.
Flexible, Secure Time Capture
CloudApper AI TimeClock supports multiple punch-in methods, including AI-powered face ID, NFC, QR codes, and barcodes, so employees can clock in with whichever method suits them best. Face ID clock-ins in particular eliminate buddy punching and keep time records accurate. On top of that, it lets you add custom attestations (for meal breaks or shift changes, for example) and configure the kiosk to prevent clock-ins that don’t allow adequate rest between shifts, supporting labor law compliance.
Streamlined PTO Management
CloudApper AI TimeClock lets employees submit time-off requests directly through the kiosk, with manager approvals and automated notifications built in and configurable to your organization’s policies. This keeps PTO management transparent and removes a common source of back-and-forth between staff and managers.

Real-Time Employee Data Visibility
Beyond clocking in, CloudApper AI TimeClock gives employees access to their timecards, pay stubs, benefit information, and accrual balances for vacation or sick leave right from the kiosk. This gives staff a clear, real-time view of their own schedule and pay data, without needing to ask a manager or HR rep.
Shift Trading and Bidding
CloudApper AI TimeClock also enables shift trading and bidding on the kiosk, so employees can pick up or hand off shifts directly through the interface. This gives staff more control over their schedules and reduces the coordination work that would otherwise fall on managers.
24/7 HR Support
CloudApper AI TimeClock includes a built-in AI-powered chatbot that answers HR-related questions around the clock, whether it’s a question about a policy or an employee perk. This reduces the burden on HR teams and gives employees immediate access to answers, even outside regular business hours.
Customizable Data Collection
Need to capture specific project details, cost codes, or employee feedback? CloudApper AI TimeClock can be configured to collect this data as part of the clock-in and clock-out process, which is valuable for workforce management and project tracking. It can also layer in geofencing to confirm employees are clocking in from the right location, which is especially useful for organizations managing multiple sites or field teams.
