Six things that matter when the doors open — and we nail every one.
Instant QR & barcode scanning
Point, scan, done. Camera-based scanning with a live viewfinder supports QR codes, Code-128, EAN-13, and 8 other formats — all at the same time, no setup required.
Fully offline-first
No Wi-Fi? No problem. Every check-in saves locally and syncs the moment you’re back online. Zero data loss, zero stress.
Event management dashboard
Create events, set venues, manage capacity, and track progress — all from a clean web dashboard your team will actually enjoy using.
Bulk ticket import
Drag in a CSV or spreadsheet — columns are detected automatically and duplicates are caught before they hit the system. Ready to scan in seconds.
Real-time analytics
See who’s arriving, when, and how fast. Live timeline charts, scan outcome breakdowns, peak window analysis, and printable reports — all updating as it happens.
Multi-role access control
Admin, Promoter, and Door Staff roles — each with scoped permissions. Staff see only the scanner. Promoter admins manage their own events, tickets, and team.
Up and scanning in minutes.
No IT department required. No training manuals. Your team can be scanning before the doors open.
- 1
Create your event
Sign up, start your free trial, and create your first event in under a minute. Set the venue, date, and capacity — or pull it in from your ticketing platform via API.
- 2
Import your guest list
Drag in a spreadsheet — columns are auto-detected and dupes are caught. Or connect your ticketing platform and let the tickets flow in automatically.
- 3
Invite your team
Send an email invite, they set a password, and they’re in. Each staff member gets a dedicated scanner view scoped to their events — nothing more, nothing less.
- 4
Open the doors
Pick an event, point the camera, and go. Every scan is logged. You see it all live from the dashboard — who’s in, how fast, and who’s scanning.
All your events, always accessible.
Browse your full event schedule at a glance. Each event card shows the date, venue, and cached ticket count so you know exactly what to expect before scanning begins.
- Live search — filter events by name, venue, or promoter instantly from the search bar.
- Ticket count preview — see how many tickets each event has before tapping in.
- Sync status — the status bar shows online/offline state, pending count, and last synced timestamp.
- Offline fallback — if the network drops, previously loaded events are shown from local cache automatically.
Set it up your way.
Every venue is different. Scan Manager adapts to your environment — whether you need silence in a theatre or maximum vibration at a festival.
- Sound on/off — distinct chimes for valid, duplicate, and invalid tickets. Fully silenceable for quiet venues.
- Haptics on/off — medium impact for success, heavy for duplicates and errors. Toggle independently from sound.
- Keep screen awake — prevents the screen from sleeping mid-event so staff never have to unlock mid-queue.
- Result display time — choose 1s, 3s, or 5s for how long the scan result stays visible. All settings persist across sessions.
No signal? Keep scanning.
Offline-first architecture. When the network goes down, scanning continues without interruption. Nothing is lost.
Tickets downloaded on event select
All tickets for an event are cached to local SQLite storage the moment you open it — indexed for instant O(1) lookup.
Check-ins queued locally
When offline, each check-in is saved to a pending queue with a timestamp. The “Pending Sync” counter keeps staff aware of how many are waiting.
Auto-synced on reconnection
The moment connectivity returns, all pending check-ins are uploaded in a batch. The app also syncs every 10 seconds when online to stay up to date.
Optimistic updates
Tickets are marked as used immediately on the device — no waiting for a server round-trip. Scanning stays under 200ms even on the slowest networks.
Duplicate detection
Already-scanned tickets are tracked in local memory. Duplicates are caught instantly — even offline — before ever reaching the server.
Batch sync — up to 300 at once
When reconnecting after a large offline session, all pending check-ins are uploaded together in a single efficient batch request.
