@Gokigooooks already said important things. And URL sample:

https://api.foursquare.com/v2/checkins/add?
venueId=IHR8THISVNU& // The venue where the user is checking in
broadcast=public,facebook& // POST TO FACEBOOK
ll=33.7,44.2& // User location
alt=44.038330& // User altitude (option)
oauth_token=(OAUTH_TOKEN)& // User aouth token (need login)
v=20150929 // api version

EDIT

After checkin, Checkin id will be returned. (e.g. IHR8THISVNU)

Then you need to access the following URL

https://api.foursquare.com/v2/photos/add?
checkinId =IHR8THISVNU& // the ID of a checkin owned by the user
broadcast=facebook& // POST TO FACEBOOK
public=1& // allows for making the photo public and viewable at the venue (option)
oauth_token=(OAUTH_TOKEN)& // User aouth token (need login)
v=20150929 // api version

In addition, the image file data must be posted. The image data is sent as the POST message body on the HTTP request.

As quoted here, your still gonna be using foursquare API.

First things first, you're gonna need an api key for your application to make requests to foursquare. and Yes, your users can check in from your app.

read more about checking in end point in their documentation here

good luck
