Get Every Attendee Checked In and Wearing Their Badge Fast

Run your registration desk at your conference, trade show or festival from any browser. Scan a ticket or find the attendee by name, email or order number, check them in and print their name badge on a label or card printer. Put a self-service kiosk by the entrance, let volunteers work the desk from a link and sell walk-ups a ticket from a QR code on the desk.

Check In and Print Badges at the Desk

Scan the code on a ticket with a USB or Bluetooth scanner, or search by order number, email or name. Check in goes through the same check-in as your door app and says plainly when a ticket was already used, refunded or is outside its check-in times. The badge prints straight away with your event's logo and colour, the attendee's name, their company and job title from your checkout questions, the ticket type and a QR code.

  • Scan or search: order number, email or name
  • Same check-in as the door: a later scan at the door shows them checked in
  • Name badges: A6 lanyard or CR80 card, from your brand kit

Let Attendees Check Themselves In

Put a tablet and a badge printer by the entrance with a kiosk link. Attendees scan the ticket from their email, or enter their email address and a six-digit code sent to it, then check in and print their own badge. The kiosk prints each ticket's badge once, and nobody can search for another person's name there.

  • Kiosk link: on any tablet, with no sign-in
  • Email code: for attendees without their ticket to hand
  • One badge each: another badge is printed at the desk with a reason

Share the Desk With Volunteers and Welcome Walk-Ups

Give volunteers a registration link that opens only your registration desk, with no dashboard login. Everything done through it is recorded under the link's name, and you can stop it at any time. Walk-ups scan a QR code on the desk to buy on your event page, then check in like everyone else.

  • Registration link: for volunteers without a dashboard login
  • Walk-ups: buy a ticket from a QR code on the desk
  • Badge setup carried over: copy it to your next edition
