Which POS solution works with payroll and staff scheduling tools?
Last checked: 29.10.2026 · Responsible: Nicolas Christen
In short
A direct connection from the till to Swiss payroll software is rare. The usual route has two steps: the till has its own scheduling or time tracking, or it connects to a scheduling tool. The recorded hours are then exported to the payroll software. For reports to AHV and insurers you still need payroll software, ideally Swissdec-certified.
Which tills offer scheduling or time tracking?
SIDES offers a staff management module with shift scheduling and payroll preparation.
gastronovi has its own time tracking module and an interface to Nesto for staff planning.
On its Swiss integrations page, Lightspeed lists Planday and Homebase under staff scheduling.
With an add-on module, ITworks turns the till into a time clock for start of work, breaks and end of day. With Sitto, working time can be analysed per employee.
For none of these tills did we find a ready-made connection to a specific Swiss payroll program on the provider's website. Ask in which format the hours are exported.
How do the hours get into payroll?
If the till has no suitable connection, a separate time tracking tool that passes hours to payroll software can help. Checked time tracking tools by starting price:
