How to run an event with tickets and check-in

A walk-through for organizers: how to publish an event, sell or give away tickets, and check people in at the door with a phone. Included in every package.

When this guide is for you

  • Registrations arrive by email and end up in a spreadsheet
  • You do not know how many are coming until the day itself
  • At the door, someone ticks names off a printed list

Common questions

Does a ticket make someone a member?

No. Tickets do not create membership. Only products marked as membership do.

Do we need special equipment for check-in?

No. A phone with an internet connection is enough. Scanning uses the camera, and name search works without it.

What do the helpers at the door see?

Helpers get check-in access to one event. They cannot edit anything and do not see contact or payment details.

What if the same ticket is scanned twice?

It counts once. Undo cannot overwrite a newer check-in by someone else.

Can people come back in after leaving?

Yes. You can check people in, check them out or undo, and people can come back in.
