Smart access control meets automated check-ins

How can a fast-growing fintech create a workplace experience that allows its employees to focus on doing their best work?

Moonfare has found the ideal solution to make employee arrivals at the office as seamless as possible. How? By combining smart building access control with automated check-ins. We sat down with their team to explore how integrating deskbird with other workplace tools creates a smooth and connected employee experience.

How it all started

Moonfare moved to a new office that had fewer desks than the company had employees. So they needed a desk-sharing solution that would give employees the flexibility to pick their seats for in-office days and also provide them with reliable data on who was in the office and when.

After comparing a few solutions, they chose deskbird for its simplicity, user-friendliness, and capability to integrate with other tools, including their new access control system Salto. The goal? Making the employee experience upon arrival at the office as hassle-free as possible and allow the team to focus fully on work.

deskbird X Salto = full power of automation

Together with our certified integration partner NOA, we built a custom solution that seamlessly connects Salto’s access control system with deskbird using our public API—getting the integration up and running in just four weeks. Now employees get checked in automatically for their desk and parking spot bookings for the day as soon as they swipe their access cards to enter the office—similar to automatic check-in via geolocation, just based on access control data instead of geo data.

Automated check-ins guarantee data accuracy

And it doesn’t stop there. With automatic check-ins triggered upon arrival, missed bookings are a thing of the past. This not only ensures that deskbird analytics reflect real, utilized bookings—it also improves the overall accuracy of occupancy data in the office. Combined with our Advanced Analytics, this integration gives Moonfare deeper, more powerful insights into space usage and booking behavior.
