Check in your guests

On event day, the Terminal is your check-in tool. It runs in the browser on a phone, tablet, or physical kiosk, and gives your team a fast way to admit attendees.

Two ways to check people in

  • Scan a QR code — each registered attendee has a ticket with a QR code. Point a device's camera at it and they're checked in.
  • Search by name — no code handy? Look the attendee up by name and check them in manually.

See Scanning & manual check-in for the details.

Let guests check themselves in

You can also run the Terminal as a self-service kiosk — set up a device at the entrance and let attendees check themselves in, no staff needed.

You decide exactly what the Terminal does — the steps it walks through, what it shows, and what it collects — in the terminal setup. Start with the Terminal & Kiosk overview.

💡 Tip: Watch arrivals as they happen with the live check-in view.
