What is EventFlow (Copy)?

Effortlessly manage and check-in attendees for any event, from large conferences to intimate workshops.

Is RFID worth the cost?

For events over 10,000 attendees with sponsor activations and session tracking across many rooms, often yes. For events under 5,000 focused on check-in and badging, QR is faster to deploy, far cheaper, and equally reliable.

Can QR scale to 5,000+ attendees?

Yes — with multiple stations and self-service kiosks. EventFlow customers regularly process 5,000+ attendees with QR alone.

Does QR work offline?

Yes. QR codes are scanned and matched against a locally-cached attendee list. No internet required at scan time.
