Event day checklist for organisers
Everything to prepare before doors open so check-in runs smoothly with Ticket Brew.
The week before
- Create a scanner link for each person on the door
- Test-scan a ticket (issue yourself a free ticket to practise)
- Confirm your payout bank account is verified
- Export your guest list as a backup
The day before
- Brief door staff on what each scanner result means
- Decide your re-entry policy and who handles disputes at the door
- Check signal or Wi-Fi at the entrance — the scanner needs a connection
- Charge phones and pack power banks
At the door
- Open scanner links on every phone and allow camera access
- Have extras ready to hand out, if you sold any
- Use Manual lookup for guests whose tickets won't scan
After the event
- Request your payout from the Payouts page
- Turn on review requests if you haven't yet
