Gala · Check-in

Check in a full ballroom from any phone

Scan tickets with the phone’s camera, search by name, check in a whole party at once, and keep going when the wifi drops.

Check-in on a phone after a scan: Checked in, the guest’s name, their ticket and table number, and a button to check in the rest of the party.
What it does

How it works on your event

  • Any phone, no app

    Open check-in in the phone’s browser and point the camera at a ticket.

  • The answer fills the screen

    Green for in, amber for look closer, red for stop, with the guest’s name in large type.

  • Whole parties at once

    Scan one ticket and check in the rest of the order with one tap.

  • Search by name, email or phone

    Find a guest by the start of any name, their email, or three digits of their phone.

  • Every door at once

    Several phones can work the doors. Each one sees the others’ check-ins within seconds.

  • Door staff see the door

    Give volunteers the Door staff role. They check guests in and see no money or orders.

  • Keeps going offline

    A check-in made without signal waits on the phone and goes through when it’s back online.

Questions

Frequently asked

Yes. A check-in made offline waits on the phone and goes through once it reconnects.
