Fingerprint attendance features.
Fingerprint attendance software turns a fingerprint scanner into a check-in point, so each record is tied to the person whose finger was on the sensor and a colleague can't clock in on someone else's behalf.
NCheck works with a wide range of USB scanners on Windows and Android, so there's a good chance one you already own will work. Fingerprint runs alongside face recognition as part of the same biometric attendance system, and it's included from the Standard plan.
Scanner-based capture
Proven USB and terminal fingerprint scanners, with fast, reliable matches every shift.
Works alongside face
Mix modalities, with face at the gate and fingerprint on the line, set per site or per person.
Familiar for workers
No training needed, since everyone knows how a fingerprint works.
Shared-device ready
Enrolment and fingerprint check-in on Admin app devices running Windows or Android.
Proven engine
Neurotechnology fingerprint algorithms, with decades of NIST-benchmarked accuracy.

Fingerprint attendance on a PC, laptop or Android device.
Connect it
Plug it in by USB to a Windows PC or laptop, or to an Android tablet.
Install the Admin app
The NCheck Admin app costs €95 one-time per device.
Enrol and go
Enrol your staff at the station, and they can start checking in straight away.
With NCheck Cloud, check-ins from every station land in one account, which is what makes cloud fingerprint attendance work across several sites. NCheck On-Premises keeps everything on your own server.
When to use face recognition alongside fingerprint.
Fingerprints get harder to read with dirt and dry or worn skin, which is common on construction sites and production lines. Running face recognition on the same account means nobody goes unrecorded when a finger won't read.
| Fingerprint | Face | |
|---|---|---|
| Suits | Shared stations where a scanner is already installed | Phones, tablets and webcams |
| Hardware | USB scanner plus the Admin app | Any camera |
| With gloves on | Gloves have to come off | Works with gloves on |
| Available on | Standard and above | Free plan and above |
Face and fingerprint across three campuses
Some staff had fingerprints that were difficult to read, so the school uses face and fingerprint together across three campuses. Read the case study →

Frequently asked questions.
Can a fingerprint time and attendance system be fooled by a fake finger?
Some scanners include spoof or live finger detection built into the hardware, and the supported devices list shows which ones, such as the Futronic FS80H. If spoofing is a concern on your site, choose one of those models, or pair fingerprint with face recognition, where liveness detection runs on Standard and Premium plans.
Do we need a dedicated fingerprint attendance machine?
No. A USB scanner on a PC or Android device running the NCheck Admin app does the same job as a wall-mounted machine. If you're replacing one, the biometric attendance machines page covers the options.
Can we move fingerprints over from our old clocking terminals?
Usually not. Fingerprint templates are tied to the algorithm that created them, so they rarely transfer between vendors. Plan to re-enrol staff, which takes seconds per person, and see when to replace old fingerprint clocking terminals for the full migration steps.
Is fingerprint data safe?
NCheck stores encrypted templates, not fingerprint images, and they're protected in storage. With the on-premises edition, everything stays on your own server.
How does fingerprint attendance management software feed payroll?
Every check-in, whatever the method, lands in the same timesheets and reports. Reports export to Excel and CSV and connect to Tally ERP and QuickBooks Desktop. For other HR and payroll systems, there's the REST API.
