Time tracking for hair salonsClock in, vacation, balance.
Clock in, vacation, balance.
All in one place.
Snipclock is time tracking built specifically for hair salons: your team clocks in and out with a PIN on the salon computer, requests vacation right at the terminal, and you see the whole team’s balances and absences at a glance — compliant with Swiss labor law.
You cut. We clock.
Does this sound familiar?
Time tracking in a salon is usually chaos — not because your team is careless, but because the tools simply weren’t built for it.
Features
Built for the day-to-day at the front desk — not for an office.
PIN terminal on the salon computerA tablet or PC at the front desk is enough. Everyone enters their PIN and clocks in, out, or into a break — done. No smartphone, no personal account needed.
Vacation & absences in secondsRequest right at the terminal or online, approved with one click by management. Overlaps are flagged automatically.
Balance at a glanceTarget hours, actual hours, overtime and vacation balance are calculated automatically — for every person and for any period.
Team overview for managementWho’s in, who’s on vacation, who’s out — all absences and hours for the whole team in a single view.
Export for payrollOne click, one CSV file — ready for your payroll software or your fiduciary.
Swiss law built inRetention, an immutable change log and vacation rules under the Labour Act, its Ordinance 1 and the Code of Obligations — correct automatically.
