What credential types are supported?

CrowdPass supports NFC badges, RFID wristbands, QR codes, and mobile credentials. You can mix and match credential types within a single event.

Does access control work offline?

Yes. CrowdReader devices cache credential data locally so scanning and verification continue even without an internet connection. Data syncs automatically when connectivity is restored.

Can I set time-based access rules?

Yes. You can configure access windows for specific zones, such as allowing VIP-only access during certain hours or restricting backstage entry to scheduled time slots.

How does capacity monitoring work?

Each zone tracks entries and exits in real time. You set maximum capacity per zone, and the system alerts staff automatically when occupancy approaches the limit.

What happens if a credential is denied?

The scanning device displays a clear denial with the reason (wrong zone, expired, revoked). Staff can override in emergencies with manager-level credentials.

Three steps to frictionless access

From registration to zone-level entry, CrowdPass handles the entire attendee flow.

STEP 01

Register

Attendees register online and receive a QR code, NFC badge, or RFID wristband linked to their profile and access permissions.

STEP 02

Check In

On arrival, attendees scan their credential at any entry point. Verification happens in under a second with immediate visual confirmation.

STEP 03

Access Zones

Attendees move freely between zones they are authorized for. Staff see real-time occupancy and receive alerts for restricted areas.

Everything you need for secure events

Real-time verification, zone management, capacity monitoring, and complete audit trails in one platform.

Multi-Zone Management

Define unlimited access zones with custom permissions for VIP areas, backstage, press rooms, and more. Each zone operates independently with its own rules and capacity limits.

Real-Time Verification

Instant credential scanning with sub-second verification times. CrowdReader devices cache data locally so scanning continues even without an internet connection.

Capacity Monitoring

Track real-time occupancy for each zone and receive automatic alerts when approaching capacity limits. Prevent overcrowding before it happens.

Access Logs & Audit Trail

Complete timestamped records of every access event for compliance, insurance, and post-event analysis. Export logs at any time.

Zone-based access for every event type

Configure VIP areas, backstage passes, press rooms, and general admission zones, each with their own rules and capacity limits. Attendees only access the areas their credential allows, with real-time enforcement at every checkpoint.
