Time tracking for franchise locations

Staff at each store clock in on a shared tablet, and time-off requests show who will be off. You pay based on how many people you have, not how many stores.

From $15/mo billed annually. Starter $15/mo · Growth $25/mo · Scale $49.99/mo.

How a franchise owner uses it

Web Kiosk PIN pad for franchise store staff

Clocking in with a PIN at the store

Each store has a clock-in tablet

Every store keeps its own paper time sheet, and no two look the same.

Set up a shared tablet in each store. Every employee clocks in and out with their own PIN.

Work locations for a franchise owner with several stores

A work location for each store

Each store is its own location

Hours from two stores end up in one pile.

Save each store as a work location, so you can see which store each person worked at.

Weekly hours across franchise locations

Hours for every store in one account

One plan for all your stores

You shouldn’t have to buy a new subscription for every store address.

Plans are priced by how many people you have: Starter for 1–20, Growth for 21–50, and Scale for 51–1,000. You don’t pay per location.

Team calendar of time off for franchise store staff

Who is off this month

Approve time off before the schedule comes up short

A day off approved after the schedule is posted leaves a hole in the week.

Staff request time off ahead of time. Once you approve it, it shows on the team calendar before you plan the week.

Manage Requests list for a franchise store lead

Requests a store lead can approve

Owners and store leads get different access

A store lead and the owner need to see different things.

Permissions decide who can see which employees and who can approve time off.

Approved hours, ready for payroll

TimeOff Manager tracks hours. It doesn’t pay anyone. At the end of the pay period, a manager reviews and approves the hours. Then you download them as an Excel or CSV file and send it to whoever runs payroll: your bookkeeper, your accountant, or your payroll software.

  • Hours are approved first

    A manager checks the hours before they go anywhere, so payroll gets real numbers, not guesses from a group text.

  • Overtime is flagged

    Extra hours show up on the timesheet, so you can see overtime before you pay it.

  • Excel or CSV

    One download your bookkeeper or payroll software can open.

  • Payroll happens elsewhere

    TimeOff Manager does not calculate pay, print checks, or file taxes.

A typical day

  1. 1

    The store opens

    The first person in clocks in on the store tablet.

  2. 2

    Staff clock in for their shift

    Each person uses their own PIN.

  3. 3

    Coverage is already planned

    Approved time off is already on the calendar.

  4. 4

    Hours go to payroll

    Download the approved hours and send them to payroll. Royalties and brand audits stay in your other systems.

This is not royalty reporting or a brand audit

TimeOff Manager does not calculate royalties, audit brand standards, or run the register. It tracks who worked at each store you set up and their time off, and lets you download approved hours for payroll.

Also see time tracking software, TimeOff Kiosk, PTO software, and pricing.

Approved time off can sync to Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook. Approved hours can go to QuickBooks Online or FreshBooks.
