What it does
Checking guests in from a printed list or a spreadsheet gets slow once a line forms at the door, and mistakes creep in. This addon moves the process into EventON, where your events already live. Staff can scan a QR code or barcode on a ticket, or mark someone as arrived manually when they walk in without one. Group check-ins are supported too, which helps when several people arrive together during a busy stretch.
Because check-ins are recorded as they happen, organizers can see attendance in real time and follow how guests are moving through the entry. The interface works on smartphones, tablets and desktop computers, so a door team can use whatever devices they have. Afterward, detailed logs and exportable reports give you a record of who came. User role controls let you decide which team members can handle check-ins, and the check-in screen can be styled to match your event branding.
Best for
- EventON sites selling or issuing tickets to events
- Conference and workshop organizers managing door entry
- Event teams with several staff checking in guests
Features
QR code and barcode scanning
Verify guests at the door by scanning the QR code or barcode on their ticket, which keeps entry quick and cuts down on typing errors.
Manual check-in
Register a guest's arrival without scanning anything, which suits walk-ins, VIP guests or anyone who shows up without a ticket on hand.
Real-time attendance tracking
See who has checked in as it happens, so you can keep an eye on guest flow and overall participation while the event is running.
Bulk check-in
Check in groups of guests together to keep the line moving during high-traffic periods at the entrance.
Works across devices
Run check-ins from smartphones, tablets or desktop computers, giving you flexibility for different entry setups and venue layouts.
Attendance reports and exports
Generate detailed logs and exportable reports of attendance so you can review participation after the event is over.
Customizable check-in interface
Adjust the look and feel of the check-in screen so it matches your event branding and looks consistent for staff and guests.
User role management
Control which team members can access check-ins and what permissions they have, so door duties stay with the right people.

Questions about EventON - Check-ins
Does this work on its own, or do I need EventON?
It is an addon for the EventON calendar plugin. It works with your EventON calendars and event listings, so you need EventON in place for the check-in features to have events and attendees to work with.

Check-ins can be done from smartphones, tablets or desktop computers. That lets you set up an entry point with whatever hardware suits your venue, and you can limit which team members have check-in access through user roles.
Can I see attendance data after the event?
Yes. Besides live tracking during the event, the addon produces detailed logs and exportable attendance reports, so you can review who attended and keep a record for later.
