Events & festivals

Gate entry without renting a single piece of hardware

A QR code and a phone replace scanners, kiosks and rope lines — with capacity limits and staged entry if you need them.

What it fixes

The bits of the day that eat the day.

  • Renting queue hardware for one weekend is expensive

    Kiosks and scanners built for permanent venues are overkill for a one-off event.

  • Rope lines don't scale with a field

    Physical lines stretching across a site cause crowding and confusion about where the queue even starts.

  • Signal is unreliable on site

    Festival fields and warehouses often have patchy connectivity, so anything you rely on needs a manual fallback.

  • No visibility into gate throughput

    Without a live board, staff can't easily see how many are through versus waiting.

How it works here

Set up for events.

No hardware required
A printed QR code and a staff phone or tablet is the entire setup.
Waits quoted from the real gate pace
Each admit is timed, and the wait people see follows how fast the gate is actually moving — shorter when you're flying, longer when the door slows. No tables to set up; your board just says Admit.
Throughput you can see
Analytics shows how many you admitted each hour and the minutes per person, against the pace you planned for.
Capacity-limited queues
Automatically close joins once a maximum is reached, and reopen as capacity frees up.
Opening hours awareness
Queues can be set to only accept joins during your event's actual open hours.
Fast teardown
The queue simply closes at the end — nothing to physically collect or return.

Questions

Asked by people running events.

Does this work without reliable mobile signal on site?
Guests need a connection to join, so keep a manual add option at the gate as a fallback in poor-signal areas.
Can a queue be capped at a maximum size?
Yes — set a maximum queue length and it closes to new joins automatically once reached.
Can people join the queue before they arrive?
Yes — share the QR code's link in advance on tickets or social media for people to join ahead of time.
How do you know how long the wait is?
You give a rough starting figure — say two minutes a person — and from then on Queued times each admit at the gate. The wait everyone sees follows the real pace, so a fast door shortens it and a slow one lengthens it without anyone touching a setting.
