Event Lead Capture
Check-in and name badges
Import attendees, print Avery or Dymo badges with QR check-in.
If you're hosting the event rather than exhibiting at one, you can print name badges with a check-in QR on each — attendees pick theirs up at the door and scan themselves in.
Import your attendee list
On the event page, open Attendee check-in and paste one attendee per line:
Ada Lovelace, Analytical Engines, ada@analytical.io
Grace Hopper, Naval Systems, grace@navy.mil
Katherine Johnson, Orbital Mechanics
The format is Name, Company, Email — company and email are optional, so a line with just a name works. Each attendee gets a badge with its own unique check-in code.
Print the badges
Choose Print badges. Each badge carries the attendee's name, their company and a QR code unique to them.
Badges are laid out on standard label stock — Avery 5395 name badges by default, with Avery address labels, A4 sheets, Dymo and Maco also available. Print on the real sheet, not plain paper, or the alignment won't match the die-cuts.
Print a single test sheet on plain paper first and hold it against a real label sheet up to the light. It costs one sheet and catches a printer scaling setting before you've wasted fifty.
How check-in works
Lay the badges out on a table at the entrance. When an attendee finds theirs and scans the QR:
- They're marked checked in, with a timestamp.
- A lead is created for them automatically, with source checkin.
The event page shows a live X of Y checked in count, so you can see arrival flow without counting heads.
Scanning the same badge twice doesn't create a duplicate — the first scan is the one that counts.
Badges vs booth capture
They solve different problems, and you can use both at one event:
- Booth QR — anyone who walks up can capture themselves. You don't know who's coming.
- Check-in badge — one specific person, known in advance, confirmed as having arrived.
An invite-only summit typically uses badges at the door and a booth QR at each session or sponsor table.
