HOW THE APPS FIT

Centra is the machine. The apps are the execution.

You build and configure everything once in Centra. The EV apps hold no settings of their own, they execute what Centra defines, live on the day.

Configure once in Centra. The apps execute. One source of truth, no syncing.

KEY APP SOLUTIONS AND FEATURES

One suite, four dedicated apps.

Each app is purpose-built for a specific role at your event. Together they give every member of your team exactly the right tool for their job.

EV Registration

Onsite event registration, check-in and badge printing

Welcome your attendees with a seamless, professional registration experience. From the moment they arrive to the moment they have their badge in hand, every step is fast, accurate, and on-brand.

Available free on iOS and Android. Requires purchase of Entryvent’s onsite services.

One live list at the door

However an attendee signed up, they are already in the app when they arrive. Your team works from one live list at the desk, searching, checking in, and printing in seconds. No laptops, no spreadsheets, no cross-referencing at the door.

Fast, sleek and on-brand

Your registration area is the first thing attendees experience. A clean tablet station, your event branding on screen, and a badge in hand within seconds tells them they are at a well-run event before it has even begun.

Built for events of any size

Whether you are expecting 50 or 5,000 attendees, the app scales with you. Run multiple stations simultaneously, switch between QR scanning and assisted check-in, and keep your queue moving at any volume.

This page is about running check-in on the floor. For how badges are designed, the printer is set up, and the welcome and check-in emails are prepared in Centra, see the Check-in and Badge Printing page.

YOUR EVENT, YOUR BRAND

Professional event registration setup

The setup your attendees see when they arrive sets the tone for your entire event. A sleek tablet station, your event branding on screen, and instant badge printing in hand tells them they are in good hands before the event has even begun.

A professional registration area is not just an operational decision. It is a first impression.

Want it handled end to end? Our team can set up and run your registration area for you, see our professional services.

KEY APP FEATURES

What the app gives your team

Everything your team needs to run a flawless registration area on event day, with each device set to its own view, so stations are quick to set up and easy to change.

QR Code Scanning

For attendees who arrive with their QR code, scan it and they are checked in and badged on the spot. Nothing to look up, just scan and go.

Attendee Verification

No QR code? Staff search by the attendee’s details, confirm them at the station, and check them in. Attendees can also self-verify on their own device.

Badge Printing

Badges print within 2 seconds of check-in, or print in bulk by attendee type. Thermal printer on tablet or standard printer via laptop.

Onsite Registration

Register walk-ins on the spot. Your team selects their ticket, takes payment, and completes a full registration form, or uses Quick Tickets for instant entry.

WATCH YOUR EVENT SELL, ANYWHERE

EV Dash, the free stakeholder dashboard for live event data

EV Dash is the monitoring app that comes complimentary with your Centra subscription. Watch ticket sales build the moment registration opens, from anywhere. Your committee and venue contacts can use it too, with their own login.

ATTENDEE PROFILE

Attendee management at the door

Tap any attendee to open their full profile. View, edit, and act without leaving the app.

  • Ticket type and payment status
    Ticket category, tier, and payment method visible at a glance.
  • Profile details
    Whatever fields the organiser built into the profile, all viewable and editable directly from this screen.
  • Add-on management
    View, assign, or update hotel or session add-ons without going back to Centra.
  • Check-in actions
    Save and check in, or check in and print a badge in one tap.
  • Edit via QR code
    Generate a unique QR code so the attendee can verify their own data on their phone before printing.

APP SETTINGS

App settings and device configuration

The organiser configures each device in the registration area independently from the app settings panel. Every station does exactly the job it was set up for.

Print Settings

Toggle badge printing on or off. Run bulk prints before doors open. Manage Bluetooth printer connections.

Check-in Settings

Set each device to Attendee List view or QR Scan mode. Control whether attendees can edit their profile before check-in.

New Registration

Enable or disable onsite registration per device. Only designated cashier stations can accept new registrations and payments.

Display Settings

Choose which attendee fields appear on the list. Toggle UI elements. Switch between light and dark theme.

Device Settings

Upload event or sponsor banner ads displayed on the scanning screen between scans.

DID YOU KNOW

The badge you print here unlocks more than the door

The QR code on every printed badge is the same QR code EV Scan reads at every checkpoint, hall, and restricted zone you set up. Register here, scan everywhere else, with no extra credentials issued.

DTCM Integrated

Running an event in Dubai? EV Registration is fully DTCM compliant.

For Dubai events, every badge QR code generated by EV Registration is DTCM integrated. The QR code carries the registered attendee’s information and ticket validation data, and can be scanned by Dubai Tourism authorities for compliance verification. The same QR code handles check-in at the registration desk, access control at session checkpoints, and DTCM authority validation, all from one badge.

THE OTHER HALF OF THE STORY

EV Registration runs the door, Centra is where it is built

On the day, EV Registration is what your team runs at the desk. The setup behind it, the station views, the badge design, the registration forms, and onsite payment, is configured once in Centra beforehand.

EV Scan

Onsite access control and session tracking

The app at every door, every hall, every restricted zone after the registration desk. EV Scan reads the badge, applies the rules you set in Centra, and records every entry and exit so your access data builds itself as the event runs.

Available free on iOS and Android. Requires purchase of Entryvent’s onsite services.

Reads the same QR code as EV Reg

Every QR code generated by Centra, whether it sits on a printed badge, in the attendee’s wallet, or on the ticket, is the same QR code EV Scan reads. No re-issuing credentials between registration and scanning. One QR, one identity, every checkpoint.

Smart Scan and Standard Scan

Smart Scan for time-bound sessions across multiple learning rooms, with start and end times that govern when each scan opens. Standard Scan for continuous activity at main entrances or open zones, no end time. The mode you set in Centra decides what the app enforces.

Built for lean onsite operations

For events where every attendee registered online, EV Scan runs on its own as a validation-only setup. A leaner, lower per-attendee onsite cost than EV Registration. Walk-up attendees self-register online, no desk required.

Need access rules, checkpoints, and credit points? See the Access Control and Tracking page for the platform-side story.

YOUR EVENT, YOUR CONTROL

Access control in a live setting

On the day, EV Scan is what your staff hold at every gate, hall door, and session entrance. A quick tap, a clear result on screen, and the next attendee is through. No printed lists, no manual ticking, no bottleneck at the door.

Attendees move where they should, and every scan is counted as it happens

Smooth, controlled entry is part of how a well-run event feels

Want it handled end to end? Our team can run your access control on the floor for you

KEY APP FEATURES

What the app gives your door staff

Built for fast hands and busy gates. Every interaction designed to keep the queue moving.

Scan, Confirm, Next

Hold the badge to the lens. A Success banner with the attendee’s name confirms the scan, or a Scan Error shows the reason. The screen returns to the camera, ready for the next attendee.

Timed Scan Windows

Each scan opens and closes on the times you set in Centra. When a window closes, the screen shows a clear message with when the next scan opens.

Clear Reason on Refusal

When a ticket does not permit access, EV Scan stops and shows the reason on screen. No staff judgement at the door.

Flexible Device Setup

Any device can run any checkpoint, switched in two taps. Point several devices at one checkpoint to clear queues faster, all flowing into one shared record.

Check-in and check-out — Capture both entry and exit at any scan. Time spent in the room flows back to your reports automatically.

Multi-checkpoint scans — One scan can span several doors at once, so staff across different entrances are all running the same scan. No separate setup per door.

LIVE VISIBILITY FOR STAKEHOLDERS

Live scan attendance, in EV Dash

Every scan flows live into EV Dash, the monitoring app. Session attendance, check-in counts, and live operational data, in your pocket. Your committee and venue contacts watch the room come to life as it happens.

THE SCAN MOMENT

What your door staff see on every scan

Every scan returns a clear result on the device, in less than a second. Staff act on what they see, no second-guessing required.

  • Success, welcome with attendee name
    A Success banner with the attendee's name slides in from the top. Your staff greet them by name and they walk through.
  • Success, already checked-in
    When the same attendee scans twice at the same checkpoint, EV Scan flags it, so your staff know the attendee has already been recorded.
  • Scan Error with the reason
    Wrong ticket type for this checkpoint, outside the scan window, or a checkpoint not covered. Your staff have the answer immediately.
  • Active scan label
    The scan name stays visible on screen so staff know which session, hall, or activity they are running.
  • Branded scanner banner
    The banner you upload in Centra appears above the scanner, your event identity, or a paid sponsor placement.
  • Camera resets automatically
    After every result, the camera returns to scanning mode. The next attendee is already up, no host taps required.

TWO SCAN MODES

Two scan modes, set in Centra

Every scan runs in one of two modes, and the mode decides when it is open. You choose it in Centra as you build the scan, and the app enforces exactly what you set.

Standard Scan

Runs continuously with no end time. You set the date it goes live, and from there it stays open for as long as you need. Best for activity that happens throughout the event rather than at a fixed moment.

Main entrances and open zones where attendees arrive throughout the day

Booth scans where a sponsor captures leads for the whole event

Smart Scan

Opens and closes automatically on the times you set, scoped to a specific checkpoint. When the window ends, the scan closes on its own and the screen shows when the next one opens. Attendance is tied to the moment it actually happened.

Agenda-driven sessions and accredited halls

Sessions where credit depends on attending within the window

THE HOST JOURNEY

Three steps to start scanning at the door

Hosts never need training. The whole flow takes seconds. Pick your event. Pick your scan. Start scanning. The device handles transitions automatically.

01

Select event

Hosts open the app and pick the event they are working. One dropdown, one tap.

02

Select scan mode and checkpoint

Two dropdowns on a single screen. The device runs whatever scan Centra has configured for that combination.

03

Scan badges

Each scan returns Success, Already Checked-In, or Scan Error. The camera resets automatically between scans.

04

Between scans

When a scan window closes, the device shows the time of the next scheduled scan. The device opens the next scan automatically.

THE OTHER HALF OF THE STORY

EV Scan is the app, Centra is where you build the rules

On the day, EV Scan is what your door staff run at every gate. The setup behind it, the scans, checkpoints, time windows, ticket restrictions, and credit rules, is configured once in Centra beforehand.

EV Lead

Built for the people who sponsor your event

Your sponsors and exhibitors come for one reason: to meet people and leave with business. EV Lead gives their team a fast, simple way to capture every conversation that matters and walk away with leads they can act on the moment the doors close. And because they invited their own guests too, it shows them who actually turned up.

Available free on iOS and Android, for every company you sponsor.

Built around what they sell

Every company knows what its sales team needs to ask. They shape their own lead capture with their own questions, so every lead comes back already framed for their follow-up, not a generic list of names.

Meet more, miss nothing

A conversation becomes a captured lead in seconds, rated and noted while it is still fresh. The team spends the day talking to people, not wrestling with data or worrying a good contact slipped away.

Leads ready to action

Captured leads land in each team member’s own login, qualified and waiting. The moment the event ends they are following up, while everyone else is still sorting through a pile of business cards.

This page is about the experience EV Lead gives your sponsors. For how they are set up, the permissions, allocations, and the organiser to Exhibition Manager handover, see the Sponsor and Exhibitor Leads page.

THEIR BOOTH, THEIR LEADS

Lead capture on the show floor

On the exhibition floor, every conversation at a stand is a potential lead. A quick scan of the attendee badge, a rating, a note, and the contact is captured while the conversation is still warm. No business cards to lose, no end-of-day data entry.

Sponsors leave with qualified leads already in hand, knowing the event was worth it

That is what brings them back next year

Want it handled end to end? Our team can set up EV Lead for every sponsor for you

KEY APP FEATURES

What the app gives your lead scanners

Built for booth-side speed. Every interaction designed so the next conversation does not have to wait.

  • QR-code scanning
    Reads the same badge QR your attendees received from registration. No re-issuing, no separate credentials, one identity from check-in to follow-up.
  • Lead qualification
    Rate the lead, tag interests, set follow-up actions, and capture free-text notes, all from one screen. The form is configured by the Exhibition Manager once for the whole team.
  • My Leads on device
    Every lead the scanner captures is visible on their device to view, edit, or delete. A four-digit PIN keeps the data protected on shared tablets.
  • Instant CSV export
    Export the full lead list to email or device at any point during or after the event. All ratings, tags, notes, and follow-up actions included.

LIVE ON THEIR PHONE

The numbers, while it is still happening

The EV Lead app has a dashboard built in. Leads captured, qualified leads, average rating, and a live breakdown by scan, right there on the device as the team works. They see how the day is going between conversations, without waiting for a report or asking anyone.

THEIR INVITED GUESTS

They see their investment working, live

Sponsors do not only capture leads. They bring their own invited guests, and they have paid for the travel, the rooms, and the tickets. EV Lead turns that uncertainty into a live, honest view of who is really there.

01

Who has arrived

Live check-in for every guest a sponsor invited. They can see, in real time, how many of the people they brought have walked through the door.

02

Where they went

Beyond arrival, the full tracking picture, which halls and sessions their guests attended, lives in Centra. How engaged their people really were.

03

Make the talk pay off

Bought a commercial session? The team scans attendees with a dedicated scan the organiser set up. The talk becomes leads, not just a slot on the agenda.

04

Proof it paid off

Attendance and engagement become a clear return they can take back to their own stakeholders. No more wondering whether the spend was worth it.

THE OTHER HALF OF THE STORY

EV Lead is the app, Centra is where the sponsors are set up

On the day, EV Lead is all the booth team touches. The setup behind it, sponsor companies, Exhibition Managers, allocations, and what each company can scan, is done once in Centra beforehand.

EV Dash

Live event monitoring for you and your stakeholders

EV Dash puts your live event in a pocket. Attendees, demographics, and scan activity, registered or checked-in, on a phone, so your stakeholders can follow the event without a Centra login. The same numbers you watch in Centra, ready to hand to the people who want to see how it is going.

Free on iOS and Android. Complimentary with Centra, no purchase required.

One set of numbers, everyone sees it

The data your stakeholders see is the same data you see, drawn live from the event. No separate spreadsheet, no version a day behind, one source of truth in everyone’s pocket.

No more status update calls

Your stakeholders stop calling to ask how it is going. They open the app and see it for themselves, which frees your team to run the event instead of fielding questions.

Complimentary, always

EV Dash is the one app in the suite you never pay for. Free on iOS and Android, included with your Centra subscription, so handing the live view to a stakeholder costs you nothing.

THE EVENT IN THEIR POCKET

They watch it working, live

Your stakeholders want to know the event is going well. EV Dash gives them that reassurance directly: registrations climbing, attendees checking in, halls filling, all on their own phone, the moment it happens.

The difference between telling your stakeholders the event went well and showing them

Registrations, check-ins, and hall activity, live on their own phone

Their own login, or a generic one you share

KEY APP FEATURES

What the app gives your stakeholders

Three live views, each a tap apart, each switchable between registered and checked-in.

  • Attendees
    Total attendees, paid and free, check-in status, and ticket volume by attendee type and ticket name. The attendee report exports straight from the app.
  • Demographics
    The audience by nationality, with filters for attendee type and ticket name. Built from the questions you set in your registration form.
  • Scan
    Scans by checkpoint live, unique attendance across the day, and checkpoint attendance by time. The same scan data your team works from in Centra.
  • Registered and checked-in
    Every view flips between what was expected and what is actually happening, so the gap between sign-ups and arrivals is always one tap away.

THE OTHER HALF OF THE STORY

EV Dash is the live view, Centra is where the reports live

EV Dash is the app your stakeholders hold. The reports you build, filter, and export, ticket sales, attendee registration, and scan, live in Centra. Same data, two homes: one for watching, one for working.
