Operations
QR tickets & check-in
Every confirmed traveller gets a ticket with a QR code. Scan it with a phone at the meeting point to check them in. Duplicates, cancelled bookings and the wrong day are caught.
Who it's for
Why operators use QR tickets & check-in
Any operator with a meeting point or entrance: walking tours, activities, attractions and multi-day trips.
Highlights
- Every confirmed traveller gets a ticket with a QR code
- Scan with a phone at the meeting point; no special hardware
- Duplicates, cancelled bookings and the wrong day are caught
- Choose one ticket per traveller or per booking, and when scanning opens and closes
Settings
What you can set up
QR tickets & check-in works out of the box with sensible defaults. These are the choices you can make, straight from your console.
Tickets
- One ticket per traveller (not one per booking)
- Email the tickets when a booking is confirmed
At the door
- Tickets scan from (hours before departure)
- Tickets scan until (hours after departure)
- Let travellers with a balance due check in
- Off: the scanner warns "balance due" and staff collect it first.
