Fareclock vs Shiftee

Fareclock is a workforce platform for time tracking, attendance, scheduling, multi-site coordination, and payroll calculations. Employees can clock in through smartphones or kiosks, with verification by facial recognition, PIN, QR code, or NFC tag.

The scheduling tools cover shifts, pay-rate adjustments, and overtime rules. Its payroll calculator handles standard hours, overtime, pay rates, and job-based pay, while reports cover hours, job costing, labor costs, and overtime. Administrators can assign jobs and cost codes to track time against projects or phases. Fareclock lists Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows access. There is no free plan, but a 30-day trial is available. Annual pricing starts at $1.38/user/mo; Pro is listed at $1.65 per user per month plus an $11.00 base fee, billed monthly, and Premium at $2.50 per user per month plus a $17.00 base fee, billed monthly.
