From check-in to attending, fast and on the record

The operational reality

Check-in is where event operations hold together, or fall apart

Queues form, tickets get lost in inboxes, VIPs arrive without a clear path, and someone always turns up unregistered. Running that with a paper list and a spare laptop scales poorly and leaves no usable record afterwards.

What it does

Check-in as a structured operation, not a paper list

Scan in, in seconds

Scan each attendee's QR code from the confirmation e-mail, PDF ticket, or the Event App using the Service App on iOS or Android, and record every arrival as it happens.

Define points per event

Run multiple check-in points, each configured for the behavior it needs: check-in, check-out, one-time checks for vouchers, or recurring checks for zones and shuttles.

Recognize who needs what

Surface group membership at scan time: VIP, Speaker, workshop track, so hostesses route the right people correctly, with attendee notes on hand.

Print badges and keep the record

Print name badges automatically on arrival via Bluetooth thermal printers, support self check-in stations, and record every scan for live headcount and reporting.

Across the event lifecycle

Every scan rolls up into the final attendance export

01

Set up on-site

Define check-in points with the right behavior per location
Select the groups to display at scan time: VIP, Speaker, ticket type, workshop
Install the Service App, set each station to Staff mode or Kiosk mode, pair Brother QL-820NWB printers over Bluetooth, set and test label size
Send a morning reminder e-mail with the QR ticket to keep it at the top of inboxes
02

Run it live

Scan QR codes at each point: badges print in roughly one second
Handle QR-less attendees in Check-in: search, resend the confirmation, issue a one-time password, or add on the spot
See group membership under each name, so VIPs and speakers are routed correctly
Register repeat-scan points: zones, shuttles, meal vouchers, as often as needed without blocking anyone
03

Close the loop

Export the full scan log: who, when, which point, to feed reporting and invoicing
Review attendance statistics by attendee and by location from the check-in settings

Recognize every check-in in one scan

Scan in, in seconds

QR tickets scanned at any entry point: main door, workshop room or VIP lounge, with the attendee’s group shown the moment the code reads.

Badges printed, record kept

Badge printing fires on scan, self check-in stations absorb the rush, and every presence point stays in the record for the report.

Key features

Whatever the door throws at you, handled at the scan

Four point types

Check-in (single entry), Check-out (leaving with a retained arrival record), One-time check (voucher or gift), and Recurring check (zones, shuttles, repeat access). The same scans can feed a gamification score in Leaderboard.

Group display at scan time

Group membership shows as you scan, driven by tickets, registration answers, workshop sign-ups or discount codes.

Automatic badge printing

Brother QL-820NWB thermal printers paired over Bluetooth, with loaner printers available too. Two formats: 80 × 50 mm with QR for networking, and 70 × 29 mm name-only.

Staff mode and Kiosk mode

The Service App runs two ways. Staff mode is the hostess at the desk, scanning QR codes or checking people in by name. Kiosk mode is an unattended tablet on a stand: the attendee holds up their own QR, the screen confirms their name and ticket type, and the badge prints from their contact fields. A failed scan sends them to a staff member, so nobody hits a dead end.

Check-in administration

A browser-based view to search, resend a confirmation with QR, generate a one-time login, mark arrival manually, and register fast on-site, plus attendee notes visible in the Service App.

Scan export & hostess accounts

Scan export and attendance statistics for reporting and reconciliation, with individual hostess accounts for a separate audit trail per staff member.

What you get

A door that holds together under pressure

30-minute call · tailored to your events

Sub-second check-in

Under one second per attendee when the QR is ready, and reliable exception handling through Check-in, so QR-less guests don't stall the queue.

The right routing

Structured routing of VIPs, speakers and workshop tracks through group-based recognition at the scan point.

A complete record

A complete attendance record for reporting, invoicing and follow-up, and consistent check-in across recurring events, run the same way by different teams.
