Kiosk check-in

Drivers check in,
no counter queue.

A self-service kiosk lets drivers check in against their booking the moment they arrive, validated within the check-in window. Your counter stops being a bottleneck and your team sees arrivals the instant they happen.

The counter problem

The counter
becomes the bottleneck.

When every driver has to be processed at a manual counter, arrivals bank up. A staff member is tied to the desk, drivers wait, and there is no clean record of who arrived when.

01

Queues at the desk

Drivers wait to be processed one at a time.

02

Staff tied to the counter

A person has to man the desk instead of moving freight.

03

Early and late arrivals

Without a window, drivers turn up whenever and still expect service.

04

Manual arrival records

Arrival times are written down, if at all.

05

No instant visibility

The team only learns a driver arrived when they reach the desk.

How kiosk check-in works

Arrive,
check in, done.

Drivers self-serve at the kiosk and your team sees it straight away.

  1. 01

    Driver arrives

    The driver steps up to the kiosk on site.

  2. 02

    Enters their booking

    Check in by booking number, vehicle registration or collection code.

  3. 03

    Window checked

    The kiosk confirms the arrival is within the check-in window.

  4. 04

    Booking validated

    The kiosk confirms the booking and whether it is ready.

  5. 05

    Arrival posted

    The check-in appears in your operational view instantly.

  6. 06

    Team is ready

    Staff see the arrival and prepare the freight.

  7. 07

    Logged for the record

    Every check-in time is recorded.
