KIOSK doesn't recognise me — what should I do?
If KIOSK shows "Not recognised" and returns to the idle screen, nothing was saved — you can simply try again straight away. Below are the most common causes and what to do about each.

The fingerprint doesn't work
- The fingerprint was never enrolled. Check in the admin panel whether your account shows "Enrolled". If not, ask your manager to enrol it — see Enrolling a fingerprint.
- Poor read. Dry your finger and place it flat, using the centre of the fingertip. KIOSK itself hints at what to fix.

The card doesn't work
- The card is not assigned. Speak to your manager — they will assign it on the terminal, see Assigning contactless cards.
- The card was deactivated. That happens automatically when a newer card is issued to you. Use the new one.

The reader is disconnected
If a reader has dropped out, KIOSK says so plainly and suggests using a QR code or a PIN. It is a temporary situation — report it to your manager, but clock in with the fallback method so the entry is not lost.

The PIN and QR code always work
A PIN and a QR code need no reader at all. Both live in your profile in the mobile app — the QR code under "Show code", the PIN in your personal details.
