Attendance & Payroll

Staff attendance that works out the salary for you.

A QR code at your shop's entrance replaces the attendance register. Staff scan it with their own phone when they come in, go for lunch and leave. At the end of the month MunkeeyLogs works out every employee's salary on your shop's rules: late cuts, half days, overtime, paid days off and advances. It then sends each one a payslip on WhatsApp. You run it all from WhatsApp messages.

The problem

Sound familiar?

The register gets signed in the evening for the whole week, and nobody can prove who came late.
The same argument every morning: “Main 10 baje aa gaya tha.”
Salary day takes hours with a calculator: half days, late cuts, advances from a diary, and still a dispute.
Biometric machines cost ₹8,000–35,000, need repairs, and fail with sweaty or dusty fingers.
How a real shop uses it

Sip Sip Spot

Café

Sip Sip Spot pays its staff on set rules: a full day, a half day, and a cut for coming late, all worked out automatically from the scans.

Their own feedback shaped the product. Missing a full day by a few minutes used to drop a staff member to half-day pay, so they asked for something fairer. Now any shop can switch on an “almost full day” that pays, for example, 75% for a day that's nearly complete.

How it works

Step by step, on WhatsApp

1

Put a QR code at the door

Open the kiosk link on any spare phone or tablet at the entrance. You activate it once with your phone number. The QR code changes every 15 seconds, so a photo of it sent to someone at home doesn't work.

2

Each employee's first scan: verify once

The employee scans with their own phone, enters their number and verifies with an SMS code. Their phone is now linked to them. There's no PIN or password to share, and they never need to do this again.

3

Every day after: just scan

First scan of the day checks them in. The next checks them out for lunch, and the next brings them back. Their phone shows the result straight away: “Checked in at 9:52”, “Back at 2:15, break was 43m”. Breaks are left out of the hours automatically, and lateness is marked on the first scan of the day.

4

Manage it from WhatsApp

Ask who came late, mark someone present, note an advance or set a salary. If someone forgot to check out, the bot asks you. Every change is shown to you first and saved only when you tap ✅.

Aaj kaun late aaya?
Aaj 2 log late aaye: Rahul (15 min), Priya (8 min).
Rohit ne 1000 liye
Rohit ko ₹1,000 advance — save karun? ✅ Haan / ❌ Nahi
5

Month end: lock and send payslips

The Payroll page shows every employee's salary, day by day, with the reason for each cut and bonus. It flags problem days, like a missed check-out, for you to fix in one click. Then lock the month and send each employee their payslip PDF on WhatsApp.

Who it's for

Does it fit your shop?

👗

Garment & retail shops

The situation: 10 to 30 staff on fixed shifts, with a late cut and half-day rules.

With Attendance & Payroll: Set the shift and grace minutes once. Late days, half days and cuts are worked out from the scans, and the payslip shows each one.

☕

Cafés & restaurants

The situation: Split shifts, long breaks and Sunday work that's paid extra.

With Attendance & Payroll: Unlimited check-ins and check-outs a day, breaks left out, and a different shift per weekday. Sunday working can earn a premium.

💊

Medical stores & clinics

The situation: Long hours, overtime and staff who stay back.

With Attendance & Payroll: Overtime is paid per minute up to a cap you choose. Unusual overtime, which could be a forgotten check-out, waits for your OK first.

⏱️

Part-time & hourly staff

The situation: Helpers who come for a few hours at different times.

With Attendance & Payroll: Hourly pay counts every minute worked at any time of day, with no shift and no lateness. Very long days are held for your review.

📒

Shops that just want a register

The situation: No interest in scanning or minute-by-minute tracking. Only who came and who didn't.

With Attendance & Payroll: Mark full days from WhatsApp: “aaj sabka full day laga do”. You still get salary, advances and payslips.

💸

Shops that give a lot of advances

The situation: Advances noted in a diary, forgotten or argued about on salary day.

With Attendance & Payroll: Note each advance on WhatsApp as you give it. It's taken out of the salary automatically and shown on the payslip.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do I need to buy any machine?

No. Any spare phone or tablet at the entrance works as the QR screen. Staff use their own phones.

Can an employee check in from home?

No. The QR code changes every 15 seconds and only shows on a screen you activated, so a forwarded photo or link is useless. Each employee's account is linked to their own phone.

What if an employee doesn't have a smartphone?

Mark their attendance from WhatsApp (“Ramesh ko aaj full day present kar do”) or from the dashboard. Their salary and payslip work the same way.

An employee changed their phone. Now what?

Reset their phone in one click on the dashboard. They verify once with an SMS code on the new phone.

Can I use attendance without payroll, or payroll without scanning?

Both. Use attendance only, or mark days from WhatsApp and use only the salary and payslip part. It's the same price.

My shop already has its own way of paying salaries. Can you follow it?

Yes. Tell us on WhatsApp how you pay today (your own cuts, bonuses or commission) and we'll build it into your payroll for a one-time ₹3,000, on top of your plan.
