Fast Ticket Scanning for Smooth Entry

Scan guests in seconds and keep lines moving at the door. With the free iOS and Android scanning app, your staff can quickly scan barcodes on printed tickets or QR codes on mobile tickets using their device’s built-in camera.

Color-coded confirmation screens make it easy to spot different ticket types at a glance. Assign colors for General Admission, VIP, or special access levels so your team can manage entry quickly and confidently.



Backup Check-In With Manual Attendee Lookup

Forgotten ticket? No problem. Staff can quickly search for guests by name and check them in directly from the app—no barcode or confirmation email required.

Manual lookup keeps your entry line moving and makes sure every attendee can still get in smoothly.
