Design and print badges

Design the badge once and each attendee’s is rendered and stored, ready to print at the desk or show on a phone.

The ID card designer

Steps

  1. 1

    Open ID Card Designs

    Place the name, QR code, logo and any category colours on the badge, and set the size to match your stock.

  2. 2

    Check one attendee

    Open any registration and look at the ID Card panel to see how a real name sits in the layout. Long names are shrunk to fit rather than overflowing.

  3. 3

    Print at the desk

    On a Sunmi device, checking an attendee in prints their badge on the spot.

Changing the design later does not require anyone to register again; badges can be regenerated.

Events with no badge design still issue a QR pass by email and WhatsApp.

Questions

Can I change the badge design after sending passes?

Yes. Update the design and regenerate. Attendees who already have a pass keep a working QR code.

What if a name is too long for the badge?

It is shrunk to fit the space rather than running past the edge of the card.

Do I need a Sunmi device?

Only for printing at the desk. Check-in itself works on an ordinary Android phone, with attendees showing the QR on their own phone.
