Organizing an event

Scanning tickets at the door

Scan with the slash.fm app or the Door scanning tab on the slash.fm website. Scanning works offline once the guest list has downloaded.

Before doors

  1. Add your door staff with the Door role. See Team roles and permissions.
  2. Have them install the slash.fm app and sign in with their phone number.
  3. Open the scanner once with signal. It downloads the night's list so scanning works without signal.

Scanning

In the app, open the event and choose Scan. On the slash.fm website, use the event's Door scanning tab, with the camera or manual lookup.

Your organizer dashboard

Events, orders, refund requests, resale, guest list, team, payouts and settings.

No phone or a dead battery

Look the guest up by name, check their ID and check them in.

Offline

With no signal, the phone checks codes itself and marks the result as checked offline. Scans upload when signal returns. Review anything flagged in the app's Door log.

Selling at the door

In the app, Sell at door takes payment by Tap to Pay on iPhone and checks the guest in.

If scanning is down for everyone

Use manual lookup, then go to Contact us and choose Scanning isn't working on event day.
