What it does
Checking guests in at a busy entrance can turn into a slow line of people waiting while someone searches a paper list. This plugin connects to your WooCommerce ticket sales so attendee records are already in place when doors open. Staff scan tickets with the mobile check-in app on iOS or Android, and each ticket is validated on the spot, which helps stop duplicate entries and invalid tickets from getting through.
Venue Wi-Fi is often weak or missing, so check-ins keep working offline and the data syncs back to your site once a connection returns. The plugin is part of the wider FooEvents platform, which also covers ticket design, attendee data and reporting. It suits physical, virtual and hybrid events, from small workshops up to large conferences, and it requires WooCommerce.
Best for
- Event organizers selling tickets with WooCommerce
- Conferences and workshops with staffed entry points
- Venues with limited or unreliable Wi-Fi
Features
WooCommerce ticket sync
Check-in records sync with your existing WooCommerce ticket sales, so attendees who bought tickets on your site are ready to be checked in.
Mobile check-in app
A check-in app for iOS and Android lets your team scan tickets and manage entry from their own devices instead of dedicated hardware or paper lists.
Offline check-in
Check-ins continue without internet access, and all check-in data syncs automatically once the connection is restored, which helps at venues with unstable Wi-Fi.
Ticket validation at entry
Tickets are authenticated as they are scanned, helping you catch duplicate entries and invalid tickets before guests get through the door.
Customizable ticket designs
Pick from more than 20 ticket themes or create your own design so printed and digital tickets match the look of your brand.
Attendee data export
Capture and organize attendee details, then export the data to your CRM or marketing tools for follow-up after the event.
Event reporting
View event performance and sales data tied into WooCommerce analytics, giving you a clear picture of ticket sales and attendance.
