The Safest, Fastest Way to Track
Student Attendance
Manual registers are slow and easy to fake. Biometric fingerprinting is instant, accurate, and automatically keeps parents informed.
3-Mode Verification
Fingerprint scan, RFID/Mifare card, or PIN entry — all three supported on one device. Students use whichever method works best.
Instant Parent SMS
The moment a student clocks in or out, the parent or guardian receives an automated SMS. No delays, no manual sending.
Real-Time TCP/IP Sync
Attendance data syncs to Elimika in real-time over your school network — no USB downloads, no manual imports.
Students & Staff on One Device
Manage both student and staff attendance on the same ZKTeco F18 unit, reducing hardware costs.
100,000 Transaction Log
The F18 stores up to 100,000 attendance records locally — ensuring no data is lost even during network downtime.
Attendance Reports
Generate daily, weekly, and termly attendance reports per student or class directly from the Elimika dashboard.
Tamper-Proof Records
Biometric data cannot be faked — eliminating proxy attendance and buddy punching entirely.
Auto Late & Absent Detection
Automatically flags late arrivals and absences and can trigger additional SMS alerts to parents.
From Installation to Live in One Day
Device Installation
Our team installs and configures the ZKTeco F18 at your school gate or reception. We handle all network setup and Elimika integration.
Student Enrollment
We enroll each student's fingerprint into the device and link their biometric profile to their Elimika student record.
Daily Operation
Students tap their finger when entering or leaving school. The system verifies and logs attendance in under 1 second.
Instant SMS to Parent
Elimika's communication engine fires an SMS to the registered parent/guardian: "Your child [Name] arrived at school at 7:42 AM."
Dashboard & Reports
School administrators view real-time attendance on the Elimika dashboard and generate termly reports for compliance.

Every clock-in and clock-out triggers an automatic SMS to the student's registered parent or guardian. No app to install, no login required — just a simple text message delivered in seconds.
- Clock-in arrival notification
- Clock-out departure notification
