The check-in interface is your tool for managing event entry efficiently. Whether handling small gatherings or large conferences, proper use of check-in tools ensures smooth operations.
Accessing the Check-In Interface
Navigate to your event dashboard and click "Check-In" or access it directly from the event management page. The interface is optimized for both desktop and mobile devices.
QR Code Scanning
The primary check-in method uses QR code scanning:
- Open the check-in interface
- Use your device camera or scanner to scan attendee QR codes
- The system automatically verifies the ticket and checks in the attendee
- Confirm check-in completion
Manual Check-In
For cases where QR codes aren't available:
- Search for attendees by name or email
- Select the correct ticket from the list
- Manually mark as checked in
- Add notes if needed
Real-Time Statistics
Monitor check-in progress with live statistics:
- Total tickets sold
- Checked-in count
- Remaining tickets
- Check-in rate percentage

Handling Special Cases
Manage various scenarios:
