How geofencing works in Buddy Punch

Set up your geofences

Enter an address or latitude and longitude coordinates. Then, specify the diameter of the geofence between 50 and 1,500 meters. Create as many geofences as you need at no additional cost.

Attach job codes

If you need to track time by projects, you can attach job codes to geofences. This will automatically assign time worked in a specific geofence to the selected project.

Assign geofences to employees

Make all of your geofences available to all of your employees, or assign them only to the employees who work in those locations.

Customize your settings

Make geofencing required for everyone, required only for select employees, or optional. Optional is great for rural areas with limited cell phone service.

Block off-site punches

With geofencing required, employees can only clock in/out if they’re in the geofence. If they’re not, they’ll get an error message showing their current location and the geofence’s location.

Review offsite punching attempts

View reports showing which employees tried to clock in or out when they were outside of the geofence to identify employees who may have been trying to steal time and determine how effective your geofences are in preventing time theft.

Time tracking made easy

“Buddy Punch makes employee time tracking very easy. Employees just need to be within a geofence (if one is set up) to punch in/punch out. They don’t have to jump through endless steps for something that should be straightforward.”

Bryan P.

Easy to set up and use

“I used more expensive systems at previous employers, but Buddy Punch has been more than sufficient for our business. It is easy to run reports, track PTO and locations, and use the geofence.”

Connie M.

So easy to use

“Employees can punch in wherever they are assigned. We can use a geofence if an employee is not punching in at the yard. We can see where they are when they punch in. It has prevented stealing time.”
