Discover features that make your event check-in run smoothly

Everything you need to create a great first impression for your attendees, with real time insights and complete visibility into event attendance right at your fingertips.
Custom badge designs made for your event

We can design your badges to perfectly match your event branding. Flexible printing options include:

Mirrored printing: the same design on both the front and back of the badge
Alternate printing: a different design on each side of the badge
Role based badges: unique designs to distinguish attendees, speakers, exhibitors, staff, and more
Integrate with your existing registration system

Our easy to use web platform connects seamlessly with your existing registration system, providing real time registration updates and effortlessly handling walk ins at your event. If integration is not possible, you can quickly upload your attendee list using our simple CSV uploader or add attendees manually as they arrive.
Empower attendee self-service check-in

Our kiosks integrate seamlessly with your existing ticket QR codes or can issue each attendee a personal check in barcode. Attendees receive their barcode by email two hours before arrival, making it easy to access at the venue. All they need to do is scan the code at the kiosk and their badge prints instantly with no complicated screens, buttons, or staff assistance required. This self service process lets attendees check in quickly and efficiently, meaning you need only one staff member for every 200 attendees per hour.
Reduce your check-in queues with bulk printing

Reduce the number of attendees you need to process when your event doors open with our bulk printing feature. It allows you to preprint specific ticket types or attendee roles, such as exhibitors or speakers, ahead of your main check in. By printing these badges the night before and distributing them in advance, you can speed up entry, reduce kiosk demand, minimize queues, and lower overall event costs.
100% sustainable event badges

All of our badge materials are made from recycled paper and sustainably sourced wood. They contain no plastics or adhesives and are preperforated to work with single or dual clip lanyards straight out of the box, eliminating the need for plastic holders.
Reduce badging errors with attendee verfication

Reduce the time and resources lost to outdated attendee data with our smart badge printing kiosks. Attendees can review and update their information before printing, ensuring their badge is accurate and saving your team valuable time. This makes check in faster, keeps guests satisfied, and minimizes badge and ink waste, helping you cut costs while improving efficiency.
Enable attendees to find their badge instantly

Not every attendee arrives perfectly prepared. After a long or stressful journey, the last thing they want is to dig through emails to find a QR code. Our kiosks remove that frustration by offering multiple ways to locate their badge, allowing them to search by email address, name, or phone number. This flexibility keeps the check in line moving quickly and helps attendees feel calm and welcomed from the moment they arrive.
Track the number of attendees in real-time

As an event organizer, it is essential to know exactly how many attendees have arrived at your event. With our kiosk solution, this information is instantly available in your event management portal, giving you real time visibility into check ins by total count, ticket type, and registration demographic data. This allows you to make quick decisions on the day, such as adding more staff to busy entrances or preparing additional seating if attendance is higher than expected.

Frequently asked questions

The number of kiosks you’ll need depends on two main factors:

  1. The number of attendees you’re expecting

  2. The time available between doors opening and your first key session

It’s common for around 80% of attendees to arrive at the start of your event. You’ll need to process them all before your first major activity, such as a keynote. If you have two hours between doors opening and your keynote, you’ll need fewer kiosks than if you have only one hour or less — that timing makes a big difference.

Once you’ve estimated how many people will arrive during your busiest period, you can determine how many attendees each kiosk can realistically process per minute. Keep in mind that not everyone will be fully prepared — some may not have their ticket ready or may enter incorrect information, which can slow things down.

On average, a well organized check in team can process 3.85 to 4 attendees per minute per kiosk.

With this information, you can calculate your required number of kiosks using this formula:

(80% of your total attendees ÷ available check in minutes) ÷ average check ins per minute = kiosks needed

Example:
For 1,000 attendees with 30 minutes to check in:
(800 ÷ 30) ÷ 3.85 = 7 kiosks (rounded up)

Our “from” price includes all one time setup and delivery costs for event badge printing. This covers:

  • Software license and configuration

  • Delivery to your venue

  • Onsite setup

  • Post event collection

  • All required materials to run your check in (ink, badges, and printer accessories)

If you need to add another kiosk, additional rates apply as follows:

  • Additional kiosk bundle (printer, laptop, QR code reader): £305

  • Additional set of inks and ink waste box: £120

If you’re printing fewer than 500 badges (including reprints), you can share the materials from your initial order with the extra kiosk. If you expect more than that, you’ll need an additional box of 4 x 6 inch event badge labels for £135

Example:
If you’ve purchased the base rental package for £1,200 and add one kiosk, your total would be:

  • £1,200 +£425 = £1,760 without another box of badges

  • £1,200 + £560 = £1,895 with another box of badges

There's no additional onsite setup, delivery, or collection fees to pay.

Our From price includes everything needed to set up one badge printing kiosk onsite and operate it with a fully trained staff member for one day.

If your event runs for more than one day, additional staffing is £350 per staff member per day, inclusive of all travel costs.

One of the biggest advantages of choosing our Manchester based service is that our staff are local. There are no hotel stays, trains, or per diems to pay — saving you thousands of pounds compared to out of county providers.

To put this into perspective, our standard travel rates are £200 for travel, £150.00 per night for accommodation, and £50 per day in per diems. For a one day event requiring two hotel nights, that’s around £600 in expenses per staff member that you completely avoid by choosing a local Manchester team.

There are no hidden fees in our pricing or quotes — what we quote is exactly what you pay.

However, some venues or suppliers may charge additional fees for the requirements needed to operate onsite badge printing. Before placing your order, please confirm the following with your venue coordinator:

  • One 6 ft table with linen for every two kiosks ordered

  • Two power sockets per kiosk

  • Premium venue WiFi (avoid complimentary attendee WiFi to prevent congestion)

  • Hard wired internet connection for complex deployments (if required)

  • Secure onsite storage for transport cases and equipment

  • Early access fees if setup is required before normal opening hours

We do not control these potential venue costs, so it’s always best to check with your venue in advance to avoid any surprises.

In the unlikely event that a problem arises with our system, you’re fully backed by our industry leading support team.

For rental only customers, all software related issues are handled instantly through direct phone support, with remote access to your kiosk if needed. Because we own all our hardware, every kiosk is connected to our secure support network, allowing our team to make real time adjustments and fixes right on the device.

For fully staffed events, our onsite team manages any issues immediately and coordinates with our central support team if additional assistance is required.

If a hardware issue occurs, such as a printer or laptop fault, we always keep a complete spare unit onsite in a sealed box, ready to swap in within minutes. This ensures your event check in never slows down or stops.

This level of proactive support is only possible in Manchester, where our UK operations are based, allowing us to provide this service and peace of mind at no additional cost to you.

Absolutely! If you’d like to offset some of the cost of our fully staffed solution by supplementing our team with your own volunteers or staff, you’re welcome to do so.

In this model, our team member serves as the primary resource for troubleshooting, badge updates, and all technical requirements, while your staff focus on attendee check in and badge printing.

We do ask that you provide at least one designated coordinator responsible for managing and supervising your team during the event. Please note that we cannot take responsibility if volunteers fail to arrive or are unavailable when needed.

Of course. Attendees have the flexibility to update their own information directly on the kiosk before printing their badge, allowing them to correct details such as name, job title, or company instantly. Alternatively, your event staff can make these updates through our secure system backend.

Once a change is made, it takes approximately 30 seconds to sync with all kiosks, ensuring that every badge printed reflects the most accurate and up to date attendee information.

This flexibility helps keep check in lines moving smoothly while reducing the need for manual reprints and attendee frustration.
