Choosing a biometric attendance machine involves more than picking a model off a spec sheet. Site conditions, staff count, dust and heat exposure, and how the device will feed your payroll all affect which fingerprint, face recognition or card based unit actually fits your business.
TrueBays supplies, installs and configures biometric attendance machines for offices, factories, retail branches and construction sites across the UAE, then connects each device to StackHX Time & Attendance software so every clock in flows straight through to WPS ready payroll.
You get one supplier for the hardware, the installation, and the software that makes it useful, instead of buying a machine from one company and hunting for someone to integrate it afterward.

A biometric attendance machine is a physical device installed at an entrance, gate or checkpoint that identifies an employee by fingerprint, face or another unique trait before logging their clock in and clock out time. It replaces manual sign in sheets, punch cards, and shared PIN codes that are easy to misuse.
On its own, the machine only stores raw punch records. The real value comes from connecting it to attendance and payroll software, which is where TrueBays comes in, so the punches your device captures turn into accurate overtime, deductions, and WPS ready salary files without anyone re typing anything.
Every site is different, so we help you pick the device type that suits your staff numbers, environment and check in speed needs.

Cost effective and reliable for high volume workforces such as factories, warehouses and back office teams.
Offices Factories
Touchless and fast, a good fit for hospitals, hotels and any workplace that prefers a hygienic check in method.
Healthcare Hospitality
Tap and go access for construction sites, workers wearing gloves, and camps where fingerprint scanning is impractical.
Construction Logistics
Combines fingerprint, face and card in one unit, useful for busy branches that need a backup verification method.
Retail Multi BranchWe are not tied to a single manufacturer, so you get a device recommendation based on your site, not on what we happen to stock.

See how we connect existing hardware to attendance software →Hardware suppliers can sell and mount a machine, but you are often left to sort out the software integration yourself. Software companies can build a great attendance system, but not all of them supply and install the physical device. TrueBays does both, so the machine works with your payroll from the day it is switched on.
We review your headcount, site layout and environment to recommend the right device type.
The device is delivered, mounted and wired at your site by our technicians.
We enroll your staff, set up shift and grace period rules, and test the device on site.
Attendance data is linked to StackHX Payroll so hours and overtime flow through automatically.
Many suppliers stop once the machine is mounted on the wall. Here is what changes when the device is supplied by a company that also builds the software behind it.

Pricing depends on the device type and the number of units needed. A basic fingerprint terminal costs less than a face recognition device with camera based verification, and multi branch orders bring the per unit cost down further. Contact us for a quote based on your headcount and site count.
Fingerprint terminals suit offices and factories with steady staff. Face recognition suits hospitals, hotels and workplaces that want touchless check in. RFID card readers suit construction sites and outdoor teams wearing gloves or masks. We can recommend the right device after a short site assessment.
In most cases yes. TrueBays StackHX is hardware agnostic and can connect to existing ZKTeco, Hikvision, Matrix, Suprema and similar devices already installed at your site, so you do not always need to replace the hardware to get proper payroll integration.
A single site with one or two devices is usually installed and configured within a day. Multi branch rollouts across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah are scheduled site by site and typically completed within one to two weeks depending on the number of locations.
Yes, when the device is connected to a proper HR and payroll system. TrueBays configures every biometric machine it supplies to sync attendance data directly into StackHX Payroll, so working hours, overtime and deductions flow into your WPS SIF file without manual entry.
A pure hardware supplier sells and installs the machine but usually leaves you to sort out software integration yourself. TrueBays supplies the device, installs it, and configures it to work directly with HR and WPS payroll software from day one, so there is a single vendor and a single support line for both the hardware and the software.
Yes. Our Dubai based support team handles device troubleshooting, firmware updates and re enrollment of staff, alongside support for the attendance and payroll software the device feeds into.
