Question 1

Does AttendancePay support Indian payroll compliance — PF, ESI, TDS, and Professional Tax?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AttendancePay is built specifically for Indian businesses. It automatically calculates Provident Fund (PF), Employee State Insurance (ESI), Tax Deducted at Source (TDS), and Professional Tax (PT) based on each employee's salary structure. You can generate Form 16, ECR files for EPFO, and all statutory reports.

Question 2

Can employees mark attendance from their mobile without a biometric device?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Employees can mark attendance via the mobile app with GPS verification, face recognition selfie, WhatsApp message, or web kiosk. For office staff with biometric machines (ZKTeco, etc.), those are also supported and sync automatically.

Question 3

How does geofencing attendance work?

Accepted Answer

You define a virtual boundary (geofence) around your office or site. When employees check in, the system verifies their GPS location against the geofence. If they are outside the defined area, the system flags it or rejects the punch-in, depending on your policy.

Question 4

Does AttendancePay work for companies with multiple branches?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AttendancePay supports unlimited branches and departments. Each branch can have its own attendance policy, shift schedule, leave rules, and holiday list. Managers can view attendance and payroll reports per branch or across the entire company.

Question 5

Is there a free trial available?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer a 7-day free trial with full access to all features. No credit card is required to start. You can set up your company, add employees, and process attendance in under 15 minutes.

Question 6

Can employees apply for leave and view their payslips from their mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The AttendancePay employee mobile app lets staff apply for leave, check their leave balance, view and download payslips, see their attendance records, and access company announcements — all from their phone.

Question 7

How does live employee tracking work?

Accepted Answer

For field staff and sales teams, AttendancePay provides real-time GPS tracking on a live map. Managers can see where each employee is at any moment, view their travel history, and get automated reports on distance covered and locations visited.
