Frequently asked questions

How does QR access control work at events?

Each guest receives a personal QR code after registration. At the entrance, staff scan the code, the guest’s status and access category are verified in real time, and entry is granted to the right zones, including VIP and restricted areas.

Can you manage security and access control at the entrance?

Yes. Our access control manager either recruits and briefs a security team for your event, or briefs and manages security provided by the venue or the client, ensuring consistent entry rules at every entrance. For VIP zones and queues we install VIP barriers (stanchions with ropes).

Do you provide VIP barriers?

Yes. We install VIP barriers (stanchions with ropes) to separate VIP zones, organise queues and close off restricted areas.

Why do VIP guests require additional staff?

VIP guests usually arrive without QR tickets and are registered manually, which takes longer. At the EYWA event “Celebration of a New Era in Real Estate – Generation 5.0” at Bluewaters Forum we deployed 16 staff across 3 desks (tickets, VIP invitations and VVIP), supported by 2 supervisors, a head of staff and security.

How many staff are needed for an event of 1,000 guests with VIPs?

At minimum, a head of staff and two coordinators, 3–4 tablets for registration plus the staff’s smartphones as QR scanners, and hostesses for check-in and guest navigation between the venue zones. The number of hostesses depends on the arrival pattern, the number of entrances and the VIP categories.

Can access control cover several venues?

Yes. We have run access control for a private VIP event across two venues and for the High End & Smart Home Show at Dubai Silicon Oasis with 6 main and 28 sub-locations.

What is the largest on-site team you have managed?

Up to 90 people at a single event, including registration staff, supervisors and security.

Can access control run without venue power or reliable Wi-Fi?

Yes. Our badge printers are battery-powered, and our own iPads and laptops operate for approximately 8 hours on battery. Printers and equipment run on our own internet connection, while iPads and laptops can also use the venue Wi-Fi, even on a slow or weak connection.

Do guests need to install an app?

No. Guests receive a QR code by email and open the event page in their phone browser. Staff scan the codes with a phone or iPad, also without an app.
